Your treadmill,like other electronic equipment, can be
damaged by sudden voltagechanges in your home's
power, To decrease the risk of damaging your
treadmill, always use a surge suppressor with your
treadmill (see drawing 1 atthe right), To purchase
a surge suppressor, see precaution 12 on page 3,
Use only a single-outlet
surge
suppressor
that is
UL 1449 listed as a transient
voltage
surge
sup-
pressor
(T'v'SS). The surge suppressor
must have
a UL suppressed
voltage
rating of 400 volts
or less
and a rain[mum
surge dissipation
of 450 joules,
The surge
suppressor
must be electrically
rated for
120 volts
AC and 15 amps, There
must be a moni-
toring
tight

suppressor
to indicate
whether
it is functioning
properly.
Failure
to use a
properly-functioning
surge suppressor
could dam-
age the control
system
of the treadmill
(see
precau-
tion 13 on page 3).

conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power
cord into a surge
suppressor,
and plug the surge
suppressor
