Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home's power,
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off, To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, aJways use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at
the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your JocaJ NordicTrack denier or call the toll-free
telephone number on the front cover of this man-
uaJ and order part number 146148, or see your tocaJ
electronics store.
Use onJy a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 Hsted as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed vottage rating of 400 volts or Jess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 jouJes.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-
toring light on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. FaiJure to use a
properly functioning surge suppressor couJd resutt
in damage to the controJ system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the waJking beJt
may change speed, accelerate, or stop une×pect-
edty, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electrician,
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pote receptacle outJet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
