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 work level 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. Unplug the treadmill
during an electrical storm as a precaution.
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
which may result in serious injury.
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to
function properly with little finger pressure.
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 metal portion of the console control head.
Your treadmill will not start and operate 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. Use the Stop /
Pause switch in normal operation.
