Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be sedously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home's power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interferencecan
resultfrom weather conditionsor 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 t at
the dght). To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your local SEARS dealer or call 1-800-366-7278 and
order part number 146148.
Usa only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (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 volta AC and t5 amps. There must be a
monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning
propedy. Failure to
use a properly functioning surge suppressor could
result in damage to the control system of the
treadmill. If the control system is damaged, the
walking belt may change speed or stop unexpect-
edly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, groundingprovidesa path of least
