Important Safety Instructions
7
 Route power cables so that they are not walked on,
pinched, or damaged by items placed upon or against
them, including the equipment itself.
 Ensure the equipment has adequate ventilation. Do not
place anything on top of or over the equipment. Do not
use on a cushioned surface that could block the
ventilation opening.
 Assemble and operate the equipment on a solid, level
surface.
 Proper Location for Equipment
 For all equipment other than treadmills: Locate at
least 40 inches (1 meter) away from walls or
furniture on either side of the equipment, and 40
inches (1 meter) away from objects behind the
equipment.
 For treadmills: Locate at least 40 inches (1 meter)
away from walls or furniture on either side of the
treadmill, and at least 80 inches (2 meters) away
from objects behind the treadmill.
Important: These location standards should also be used
when positioning equipment away from sources of heat, such
as radiators, heat registers, and stoves. Avoid temperature
extremes.
 Keep equipment away from water and moisture. Avoid
dropping anything on or spilling anything inside the
equipment to prevent electric shock or damage to the
electronics.
 When using the treadmill, always attach the safety clip to
your clothing before beginning your workout. Failure to
use the safety clip may pose a greater risk of injury in the
event of a fall.
 Keep in mind that heart rate monitors are not medical
devices. Various factors, including the user’s movement,
may affect the accuracy of the heart rate readings. The
heart rate monitors are intended only as exercise aids in
determining heart rate trends in general.
 Do not operate electrically powered equipment in damp
or wet locations.
 Never operate this equipment if it has a damaged cord or
plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped,
damaged, or exposed to water. Call for service
immediately if any of these conditions exist.
