Important Electrical Information

WARNING!
NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. Large
switching currents of the drive motor will trip GFCI type outlets, as any appliance with a large
motor. 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. See Diagnosis Guide, page 27.
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. The temperature
specification is 40 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity limit is 95%, non-condensing (no
water drops forming on surfaces).
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 120-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, (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.
