IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
• 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 con-
sole 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. INTREPID 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.).
SAFETY TETHER CORD
A safety tether cord is provided with this unit. It is a simple magnetic design that should be used at all times. It is for your
safety should you fall or move too far back on the tread-belt. Pulling this safety tether cord will stop tread-belt movement.
To Use:
1. Place the magnet into position on the round portion of the console control head. Your treadmill will not start and oper-
ate without this. Removing the magnet also secures the treadmill from unauthorized use.
2. Fasten the plastic clip onto your clothing securely to assure good holding power. Note: The magnet has strong enough
power to minimize accidental, unexpected stopping. The clip should be attached securely to make certain it does not
come off. Be familiar with its function and limitations. The treadmill will stop, depending on speed, with a one to two
step coast anytime the magnet is pulled off the console.
REMOVE TETHER CORD AFTER USE TO PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED TREADMILL OPERATION.
