II. IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL
INFORMATION
This treadmill requires the right power source in order to properly operate. For your safety, as well as
the safety of others, please verify that the power source is correct before plugging the equipment. Any
incorrect power source could cause significant damage to the equipment and/or user.
WARNING!
This product must be grounded. Grounding provides the least resistance for electrical current and will
reduce the risk of electric shock. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Ensure that the product is
connected to an outlet which contains the same configuration as the plug. Do not use an adaptor for
this product.
This product is for use on a nominal circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in sketch A. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adapter should be used with this product.
GROUNDING METHODS:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check
with a certified electrician 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 an
electrician.
DANGER
1. NEVER use a ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) wall outlet with this treadmill. Route the power cord
away from any moving part of the treadmill including the elevation mechanism and transport wheels.
2. NEVER operate the treadmill using a generator or UPS power supply.
3. NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting power.
4. NEVER expose the treadmill to rain or moisture. This treadmill is not designed for use outdoors, near
pools or in any other high humidity environment.

III. IMPORTANT OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
•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.
•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
centre of the belt; which may result in serious injury.
•This unit starts with at a very low speed. It is recommended to stand on the side rails and only step
on the treadmill as it is moving on a slow speed. This will prolong the life of your motor and run the
belt smoothly.
•In order to prevent losing balance and suffering unexpected injury, never mount or dismount the
treadmill while the belt is moving at high speeds.
•Always hold on to handrail while making control changes.
•A safety key is provided with this machine. Removing the safety key will stop the walking belt
immediately; the treadmill will shut off automatically. Inserting the safety key will reset the display.
•Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function properly
with little finger pressure.
•Replace any defective components immediately. The machine must be kept out of use until repaired.
•Belt wear-in period: all treadmills make a certain type of thumping noise due to the belt riding over
the rollers, especially new treadmills. This noise will diminish over time, although may not completely
go away. The belt will stretch over time, causing it to ride smoother over the rollers.

VII. EXERCISE GUIDE
PLEASE NOTE:
Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is important especially for
individuals over the age of 45 or with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may
affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are intended only as an exercise aid in
determining heart rate trends in general.
Exercising is a great way to control your weight, improve your fitness and reduce the effect of aging and
stress. The key to a healthy lifestyle is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
The condition of your heart and lungs and how efficient they are in delivering oxygen via your blood to
your muscles is an important factor to your fitness. Your muscles use this oxygen to provide enough
energy for daily activity. This is called aerobic activity. When you are fit, your heart will not have to work
so hard. It will pump a lot fewer times per minute, reducing the wear and tear of your heart.
So as you can see, the fitter you are, the healthier and greater you will feel.
WARM UP
Start each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and some light exercises. A proper warm-up
increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise. Ease into your
exercise.
After warming up, increase the intensity to your desired exercise program. Be sure to maintain your
intensity for maximum performance. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise.
