If you are uslng an antenna, it must be properly con-
nected and adjusted for optimal recepfion. Refer to AN-
TENNA CONNECTIONS on page 17 to prope_dyconnect

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
THE PERFORMANT LUBE TM WALKING BELT
Your treadmill features a walking belt coated with
PERFORMANT LUBETM, a high-performance lubricant.
IMPORTANT: Never apply silicone spray or other
substances to the walking belt or the walking plat-
form; such substances will deteriorate the walking
belt and cause excessive wear.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord Into a surge
protector, and plug the surge protector Into an ap-
propriate outlet that Is properly Installed and
grounded In accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
This product isfor use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing I below. A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge protector to a 2-pole recep-
tacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly grounded out-
let is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electdcian.
Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home's pow.er.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can re-
suit from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as apropedy grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter Is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine If the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
To decrease the pos-
sibility of your tread-
mill being damaged,
always use a surge
protector (not in-
cluded) with your
treadmill.
Surge protectors are
sold at most hardware
stores and department
stores. Use only a UL-
listed surge protector,
rated at 15 amps, with a
14-gauge cord of five
feet or less in length.
This product must be
grounded. If itshould
malfunction or break
down, grounding pro-
vides a path of least re-
sistance for electdc cur-
rent to reduce the risk of
