HOW TO PLUG mNTHE POWER CORD
of the equi pment-grounding
conductor
can
result in an increased
risk of electric
shock.
Check with a qualified
electrician
or service-
man 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

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}. To purchase a surge suppressor,
see
your Jocal Sears store or call 1-800-366-7278
and
order part number 146148, or see your total elec-
tronics
store.
Use onJy a singJe-ouflet
surge suppressor
that is
UL 1449 Jisted as a transient
voJtage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor
must have a
UL suppressed
voltage rating of 400 voJts or Jess
and a minimum
surge dissipation
of 450 jouJes.
The surge suppressor
must be electrically
rated for
120 volts AC and !5 amps. There must be a moni-
toring light on the surge suppressor
to indicate
whether it is functioning
properly.
FaiJure to use a
properly
functioning
surge suppressor
couJd result
in damage to the controJ system of the treadmill.
If
the control
system is damaged, the walking belt
may change speed, accelerate,
or stop une×pect-
edty, which may result in a fail and serious injury.
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 ebc°
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 aH JocaJ codes and ordinances.
Important:
The treadmill
is not compatible
with
GFCl-equipped
outJets.
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 greemcolored
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-pote receptacle
outlet box
covers are not grounded.
Contact a quaJified elec-
trician to determine
if the outJet box cover is
grounded
before using an adapter.
