Cleaning Your Treadmill
When cleaning your treadmill spray a mild cleaning agent, such as a water and dishsoap solution,
on a clean cloth first and then wipe the treadmill with the damp cloth. Do not spray cleaning solution
directly on the treadmill. Direct spraying could cause damage to the electronics and may void the
warranty.
WARNING: Shock and electrocution hazard.
•
Unplug unit and let sit 10 minutes before cleaning or performing maintenance.
•
Electrical charge can remain in unit after unplugging.
•
Keep water and liquids away from electrical parts.
After Each Use —
Wipe up any liquid spills immediately. After each workout, use a cloth to wipe up
any remaining perspiration from the handrails and painted surfaces.
Be careful not to spill or get excessive moisture between the edge of the display panel and the
console, as this might create an electrical hazard or cause failure of the electronics.
As Needed —
Vacuum any dust or dirt that might accumulate under or around the treadmill. Motors
are especially susceptible to dust and dirt, and restricted airflow can prevent adequate cooling that
could shorten motor life. Cleaning this area should be done as often as indicated in the
Service
Schedule.
To clean the motor components, you must loosen the two Phillips head screws that hold the motor
cover in place. Lift the cover straight up; the screws will stay in place. Use a vacuum attachment
or hand vacuum to clean the exposed elevation assembly, drive motor, lower electronics and the
surrounding areas.
