HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
of the equJpmentogrounding 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
installed by a qualified electrician.
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 appli-
ances being turned on or off, To decrease the possi-
bility of your treadmill being damaged, always
use a surge suppressor with your treadmill (see
drawing 1 at the right). To purchase a surge sup-
pressor, see your local REEBOK deaJer or call the
toll-free telephone number on the front cover of
this manuaJ and order part number 146148, or see
your tocaJ electronics store.
Use only a singJe-ouflet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 Jisted as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed vottage rating of 400 volts or Jess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joutes.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and !5 amps. There must be a moni-
toring tight on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
property functioning surge suppressor coutd resutt
in damage to the controt system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the walking belt
may change speed, accelerate, or stop une×pect-
edty, which may resutt in a fall and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should maffunc°
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of slec°
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 property 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

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-poJe receptacle outJet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
