In the event of an electrical failure the treadmill will automatically
shut off. To restart the treadmill:
1. Unplug the power cable from the treadmill
2. Push in the safety switch
3. Re-plug the power cable into the treadmill
The console will display information regarding operational faults
with the treadmill. If your treadmill behaves in an unusual way and
seems to have developed a fault, turn it off at the electrical outlet
and then back on again. This should clear the treadmill of incidental
errors and prepare it for normal operation. If there is still a problem
call your local York distributor for advice. Please find below some
