THE PERFORMANT
LUBE
TM
WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBE
TM,
a high-performance
lubricant.
IMPORTANT:
Never apply silicone
spray or other
substances
to the walking
belt or the walking plat-
form. Such substances will deteriorate
the walking
belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
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, always use a surge
suppressor
with your treadmill
(see drawing
1 at
the right).
Surge suppressors are sold at most hardware stores
and department stores. Use only a single-outlet
surge
suppressor that is UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage
surge suppressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor
must
have a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or
less and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock• This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding
plug. Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and plug the surge suppressor
into an appropriate
outlet that is properly
installed and grounded
in
accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
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-pole receptacle
outlet box
covers are not grounded.
Contact a qualified
elec-
trician to determine
if the outlet box cover is
grounded
before using an adapter.
