Safety Approval - Precor 9.31 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Never turn ON the treadmill when someone is standing on the machine.
• Wear proper exercise clothing and shoes for your workout—no loose
clothing. Do not wear shoes with heels or leather soles. Check the soles of
your shoes and remove any dirt and embedded stones. Tie long hair back.
• Use care when getting on or off the treadmill. Always grasp the handrail when
stepping onto the running belt and keep the initial speed at or below 1 mph
(1.5 kph). Never step off the treadmill while the running belt is moving.
• Before the running belt begins moving (prior to your workout), and after it
stops (at the end of your workout), straddle the belt by placing your feet
firmly on the right and left side platforms.
• Keep your body and head facing forward. Never attempt to turn around on
the treadmill when the running belt is moving.
• The security clip should be attached at waist level prior to beginning a
workout. A cord connects the security clip to the red STOP button on the
console. If you encounter difficulties, a strong tug on the security cord or a
quick tap on the red STOP button will stop the running belt.
• To help prevent unauthorized use, the M9.31 is equipped with password
protection. The password involves entering three keys in sequence. Refer
to Entering a Password on page 19.
• Do not rock the unit. Do not stand on the handrail(s), display console, or hood.
• Never drop or insert objects into any opening. Keep hands and towels away from
moving parts. The running belt will not stop immediately if an object be-
comes caught in the belt or rollers.
• Keep all electrical components, such as the motor, power cord, and I/O
switch, away from liquids to prevent shock. Do not set anything on the
handrail, display console, or hood. Place liquids, magazines and books in
the appropriate receptacles.
• Do not overexert yourself or work to exhaustion. If you feel any pain or
abnormal symptoms, stop your workout immediately and consult your
physician.
WARNING
Connect the M9.31 to a properly grounded outlet only. The M9.31 treadmill must be
connected to a dedicated, grounded circuit. See Grounding Instructions on page 5.
