Important Electrical Instructions - Spirit XT285 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING!
NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. As with any appliance with a
large motor, the GFCI will trip often. Route the power cord away from any moving part of the treadmill
including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels.
NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more,
the performance of your treadmill may be affected. Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you
suspect the voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper testing.
NEVER expose this treadmill to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors, near a pool
or spa, or in any other high humidity environment.
Fahrenheit or 5 to 48 degrees Celsius, and humidity is 95% non-condensing (no water drops forming on
surfaces). Circuit Breakers: Some circuit breakers used in homes are not rated for high inrush currents
that can occur when a treadmill is first turned on or even during use. If your treadmill is tripping the house
circuit breaker (even though it is the proper current rating) but the circuit breaker on the treadmill itself
does not trip, you will need to replace the home breaker with a high inrush type. This is not a warranty
defect.
This is a condition we as a manufacture have no ability to control. This part is available through most
electrical supply stores. Examples: Grainger part # 1D237, or available online at www.squared.com
part # QO120HM.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If the treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 230-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below may be used to connect
this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary
adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet, (shown below) 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.
The safe operating termperature range is 40 to 120 degrees
