Treadmill Safety Features
Before allowing users on Precor equipment, review the Important
Safety Instructions found at the beginning of this manual. You
should also teach your patrons how to safely use the equipment
following the guidelines in
Educating Users .
Entering the Safety Code
When the equipment is shipped from the factory, the safety code
protection feature is disabled.
If you wish to enable the safety code,
refer to Club Features . Inform users that the equipment requests a
safety code to help prevent unauthorized use. When users select a
program or press QUICKSTART at the PRECOR banner, the
following prompt appears:
E N T E R S A F E T Y C O D E
Users have two minutes to press the following number key
sequence and continue their workout: 1, 2, 3, 4.
Important: Tell users to hold onto the handrail with one hand
before entering the safety code with the other hand.
If the correct keys are pressed, the program selection process
begins. If the code is incorrect, the display prompts the user to
reenter the code after a 2-minute time out.
Note: On the treadmill, a 3-second countdown appears on the
display, and then the running belt starts moving. Refer to Workout
Options in the User’s Reference Manual .
Using the Safety Clip
Instruct users how important it is to use the safety clip while
exercising on the treadmill. Instruct them on how to attach it to their
clothing near their waistline. If any complications occur, a strong
tug on the safety lanyard will stop the running belt.
If the safety switch trips while users are exercising, have them
reattach the safety clip, press the SPEED up key or QUICKSTART
and reenter the safety code, if necessary.
Note: The treadmill retains users’ workout statistics if they resume
their workout within the limit set for pause mode.
