Important Electrical Information

WARNING!
NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill.
●
Route the power cord away from any moving part of the treadmill including the elevation
mechanism and transport wheels.
NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power.
●
If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your treadmill may
●
be affected. Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you suspect
the voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper
testing. See Diagnosis Guide, page 27.
NEVER expose this treadmill to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for
●
use outdoors, near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment.
This product must be grounded. If the treadmill should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric
shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman 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.
NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results of
●
any operational change you request from the computer.
Understand that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired
●
speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will obey
the command gradually.
NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household
●
power supply that could damage treadmill components.
Use caution while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill, such as
●
watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance or
stray from walking in the center of the belt; which may result in serious injury.
NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. Spirit treadmills start with
●
at a very low speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply
standing on the belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate
the unit.
Always hold on to a handrail or hand bar while making control changes (incline, speed,
●
etc.).
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to
function properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go
faster or slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure
contact your Spirit dealer.
