IMPORTANT
ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
NEVER
remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or
more, the performance of your treadmill may be affected. Such conditions are not covered under your
warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for
proper testing.
NEVER
expose this treadmill to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors, near a
pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The temperature specification is 40 degrees C, and
humidity is 95%, non-condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces).
Circuit breakers:
Avoid AFCI/GFCI circuit breakers if possible. These breakers may occasionally trip during
use because of the high inrush currents from the treadmill drive motor. This condition is an issue with all
treadmills and other products with large motors or electric heating elements like ovens.
New laws in your area may require these breakers. If you do have these breakers and outlets in your home
and are experiencing nuisance tripping, you should check to see if there are any other devices plugged into
the same circuit like fluorescent lights with electronic ballasts, coffee makers, space heater, etc. Optimally
the treadmill should be the only device plugged into the circuit.
Our treadmills have surge suppressors built in to help avoid nuisance tripping. We have tested several
AFCI/GFCI breakers and outlets with our products that do not trip when only the treadmill is connected.
Brands we have tested are Eaton (Cutler-Hammer Series), Leviton (Smart lock pro) and Schneider Electric
(Canadian home series).
This product must be grounded.
If the treadmill should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - 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.
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 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.
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. Spirit treadmills start 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.).
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function properly with
little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go faster or slower. If you feel the
buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure, contact your Spirit dealer.
