Cleaning The Equipment; Storing The Chest Strap - Precor TRM 425 Owner's Manual

Precision Series / Energy Series Treadmill Owner's Manual: TRM 425 / 223

Cleaning the Equipment

Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside
the hood and base of the treadmill. However, for
efficient operation, the treadmill relies on low friction.
To keep the friction low, the unit's running belt, staging
platforms, and internal mechanisms must be as clean
as possible.
Precor recommends the treadmill be cleaned before
and after each workout to remove dust, dirt, water, and
sweat. Use mild soap and water to dampen a soft cloth
and wipe all exposed surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
weaken the paint or powder coatings and void the Precor
Limited Warranty. Never pour water or spray liquids on
any part of the treadmill, and remove any accumulated
sweat from the treadmill after use. Allow the treadmill to
dry completely before using it again.
Frequently vacuum the floor underneath the unit to
prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt, which can
affect the smooth operation of the unit. Use a soft
nylon scrub brush to clean the running belt.

Storing the Chest Strap

Store your chest strap in a place where it remains free
of dust, dirt, and moisture, such as in a closet or
drawer. Be sure to protect the chest strap from
extremes in temperature. Do not store it in a place that
may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F (0° C).
To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth
dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface
thoroughly with a clean towel.
