OPERATION

To reduce the risk of damaging important components on your treadmill, it is 

strongly recommended that your treadmill is plugged into a dedicated 20 amp 

circuit,  without  the  use  of  an  additional  extension  cord  and/or  power  strip. 

Failure to comply may void the warranty.

IMPORTANT:

 The treadmill is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets. 

It is essential that your treadmill is used only indoors, in a climate controlled room. If your treadmill 

has been exposed to colder temperatures or high moisture climates, it is strongly recommended that the 

treadmill is warmed up to room temperature before first time use. Failure to do so may cause premature 

electronic failure.

When using an electrical appliance, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following.
Read all instructions before using this appliance:

See grounding instructions.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If a treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path 

of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This product is equipped with 

a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an 

appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

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.
