Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electrontc equipment, can be senousty damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home's power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noLse 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 toll-free 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 electnc current to reduce the risk of elec-
tnc shock This product ts 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 all local codes and ordinances.
Important" The treadmill is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
This product _s for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated m drawing 1 below A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be

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 _s 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.
