liable for damage resulting from improper use.
+ The equipment is strictly for use by one person at a time.

1.2 Electrical safety
+ The equipment requires a 220 - 230V / 50 Hertz mains power supply.
+ The equipment should be connected directly to a grounded plug socket only by means of the
power cable supplied. The use of multi-socket adapters or similar is not recommended. Extension
leads must comply with local electrical safety guidelines. Always fully unwind the power cable.
+ The outlet should be secured with a fuse with a minimum value of„16 amperes, slow“.
+ In order to reduce the risk of an electric shock, always unplug the equipment from the mains
socket immediately after your workout and before maintenance or cleaning. Do not pull on the
cable.
+ When plugged in, do not leave the equipment unattended at any time. To avoid use by anyone
unfamiliar with the usage instructions, the power cable should be removed when the equipment
is not in use.
+ Keep the power cable away from heat, oil and sharp edges. Do not route the power cable
underneath the equipment or under a carpet or rug, and do not place any objects on top of it.
+ Make no modications to the power cable.
+ If the power cable is damaged or defective, contact your authorized contract partner. Do not use
the equipment in the meantime.
1.3 Set-up place
+ The equipment should only be used indoors, in a suciently heated and dry area (ambient
temperature between 10°C and 35°C). The equipment should not be used outdoors or in rooms
with high humidity (over 70%) like swimming pools. The equipment should only be stored in
surroundings with an ambient temperature between 5°C and 45°C.
+ The training room should be well ventilated during training and not be exposed to any draughts.
+ Choose a location in which to place the equipment such that there is enough free space/
clearance to the front, the rear and to the sides of the equipment (at least 1.50 m). Furthermore,
the equipment should not be set up in main entrances or on escape routes.
+ No objects of any type should be inserted into the openings of the equipment.
+ The equipment should be placed on a level and solid surface, any unevenness in the oor should
be leveled out.
+ A oor protective mat / equipment underlay can help to protect high-quality oor coverings
(parquet, laminate, cork, carpets) from dents and sweat and can help to level out slight uneven-
ness.
