HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

USE A SURGE SUPPRESSOR
Your incline trainer, like other electronic equipment,
can be 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 risk of damaging the incline trainer, always use
a surge suppressor (A) with the incline trainer. To
purchase a surge suppressor, see precaution 15 on
page 3.
Use only a surge suppressor (A) that is UL 1449 listed
as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The
surge suppressor must have a UL suppressed volt-
age rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge
dissipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor must
also be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15
amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge
suppressor to indicate whether it is functioning prop-
erly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the control
system of the incline trainer and serious injury to
users.
PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
The incline trainer must be grounded. If it should
malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The incline trainer power cord (B) has
a plug with a grounding pin (C) (see drawing 1 on this
page).
DANGER:
the power cord increases the risk of electric
shock. Do not modify the plug—if it will not fit
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether
the incline trainer is properly grounded, con-
tact a qualified electrician.
Plug the power cord (B) into a surge suppressor
(A), and plug the surge suppressor into an appropri-
ate outlet (D) that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of
The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt circuit
capable of carrying 15 or more amps. To avoid
overloading the circuit, do not plug other electrical
devices, except for low-power devices such as cell
phone chargers, into the surge suppressor or into
an outlet on the same circuit. IMPORTANT: If the
incline trainer is connected to an AFCI-equipped
outlet and your circuit breaker trips repeatedly
when the incline trainer is used, see the front cover
of this manual to purchase an arc filter.

A temporary
adapter (E) may
be used to con-
nect the surge
suppressor (A) to
a 2-pole recep-
tacle (F) if a
properly grounded
outlet is not
available.
The lug (G) or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw (H) to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine whether the outlet box
cover is grounded. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can
be installed by a qualified electrician.
