TANT: Never apply silicone spray or other substances to the walking belt or the walking platform. Such

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be earthed. If it should malfunction or break
down, earthing provides a path of least resistance for electric cur-
rent to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a power cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and a
earthing plug.
Two power cords are included. Select the one that will fit your
outlet. Refer to drawing 1. Plug the indicated end of the power
cord into the socket on the treadmill. Next, lift the tab on the
ferrite box and clamp the ferrite box around the power cord. The
ferrite box should not be allowed to slide along the power cord.
Fasten the included plastic tie just behind the ferrite box and
cut off the excess plastic tie. Refer to drawing 2. Plug the power
cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped
outlets.
Important: If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with a
manufacturer-recommended power cord.
DANGER:
creased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as
to whether the product is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
