IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
NEVER
use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. As with
any appliance with a large motor, the GFCI will trip often. Route the power cord away from
any moving part of the treadmill, including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels.
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).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded.
If the treadmill’s electrical system should malfunction or
break down, 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt/15 amp circuit and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below
may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly grounded
outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet (shown below) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear-lug,
or the like, extending from the
adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is
used, it must be held in place by
a metal screw.
