Bowflex Treadmills 5 Series - Manual (Page 7)

Emergency Stop Procedures
Your treadmill is equipped with a SAFETY KEY that can protect you from serious injury. The safety key uses a magnetic
key to hold it in the proper position. Insert the safety key fully into the safety keyhole.
ALWAYS CLIP THE SAFETY KEY CLIP TO YOUR CLOTHING DURING YOUR WORKOUT. UNLESS
THERE IS AN EMERGENCY, DO NOT REMOVE THE SAFETY KEY WHEN STANDING OR WALKING
ON THE WALKING BELT WHILE IN MOTION.
If the safety key is removed from the treadmill while it is in use, the treadmill will stop
immediately.
This feature is meant to prevent serious harm and, when used properly, is an excellent way to
protect your safety during your workout.
