HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
an equipment-grounding conductorand 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 all local codes and ordinances,
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCl-equipped outlets,
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.
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 local Sears or call 1-800-366-7278
and order
part number 146148.
Use 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 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a
monitoring
light on the surge suppressor
to indi-
cate whether it is functioning
properly.
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, grounding
provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) 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. Some 2-pole receptacle
outlet box
covers are not grounded.
Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine
if the outlet box cover is
grounded
before using an adapter.
