HOW TO USE THE TREADMILL
HOW TO CONNECT THE POWER CORD
Use a Surge Suppressor
Your treadmill, like other electronic equipment, can be
damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s
power. Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference
can result from weather conditions or from other appli-
ances being turned on or off. To decrease the risk of
damaging the treadmill, always use a surge sup-
pressor (A) with the treadmill. To purchase a surge
suppressor, see precaution 14 on page 3.
Use only a surge suppressor (A) that is UL 1449 listed
as a transient voltage surge suppressor (TVSS). The
surge suppressor must have a UL suppressed volt-
age rating of 400 volts or less and a minimum surge
dissipation of 450 joules. The surge suppressor must
also be electrically rated for 120 volts AC and 15
amps. There must be a monitoring light on the surge
suppressor to indicate whether it is functioning prop-
erly. Failure to use a properly functioning surge
suppressor could result in damage to the control
system of the treadmill and serious injury to users.
Plug in the Power Cord
The treadmill must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock. The treadmill power cord (B) has a plug with
a grounding pin (C) (see drawing 1 on this page).
Plug the power cord (B) into a surge suppressor
(A), and plug the surge suppressor into an appropri-
ate outlet (D) that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt circuit
capable of carrying 15 or more amps. To avoid
overloading the circuit, do not plug other electrical
devices, except for low-power devices such as cell
phone chargers, into the surge suppressor or into
an outlet on the same circuit. IMPORTANT: If the
treadmill is connected to an AFCI-equipped outlet
and your circuit breaker trips repeatedly when the
treadmill is used, see the front cover of this manual
to purchase an arc filter.
A temporary
adapter (E)
may be used
to connect the
surge sup-
pressor (A)
to a 2-pole
receptacle (F)
if a properly
grounded outlet
is not available.
The lug (G) or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw (H) to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine whether the outlet box
cover is grounded. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can
be installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: Improper connection
of the power cord increases the risk of elec-
tric shock. Do not modify the plug—if it will
not fit an outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. If you are unsure
whether the treadmill is properly grounded,
contact a qualified electrician.

The console features wireless technology that enables
the console to connect to iFit. With iFit, you can access
a large and varied workout library, create your own
workouts, track your workout results, and access many
other features.
When you use the manual mode, you can change
the speed and incline of the treadmill with the touch
of a button. As you exercise, the console will display
instant exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor.
See page 30 for information about purchasing an
optional chest heart rate monitor.
In addition, the console features a selection of work-
outs. Each workout automatically controls the speed
and incline of the treadmill as it guides you through an
effective exercise session.
You can even listen to your favorite workout music or
audio books with the console’s sound system while you
exercise.
