Do not use outdoors.
To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position, then remove the plug from the outlet.
Do not attempt to use your treadmill for any purpose other than for the purpose it is
intended.
The hand pulse sensors are not medical devices. Their purpose is to provide you with an
approximate measurement in relation to your target heart rate. Use of a chest transmitter
strap is a much more accurate method of heart rate analysis. Various factors, including
the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors
are intended only as exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in general.
Use handrails provided; they are for your safety.
Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for
use on your treadmill. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.
