Important Precautions
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and
instructions in this manual and all warnings on your treadmill before using your treadmill. Impex
assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the use of
this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to
ensure that all users of this treadmill are
adequately informed of all warnings and
precautions.
2. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or
persons with pre-existing health problems.
3. Use the treadmill only as described.
4. The treadmill is intended for home use only.
Do not use the treadmill in any commercial,
rental, or institutional setting.
5. Keep the treadmill indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the treadmill
in a garage or covered patio, or near water.
6. Place the treadmill on a level surface, with
at least 8 ft. (2.4 m) of clearance behind it
and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each side. Do not place
the treadmill on any surface that blocks air
1. openings. To protect the floor or carpet from
damage, place a mat under the treadmill.
7. Do not operate the treadmill where aerosol
products are used or where oxygen is
being administered.
8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the treadmill at all times.
9. The treadmill should be used only by per-
sons weighing 275 lbs. (125kg) or less.
10. Never allow more than one person on the
treadmill at a time.
11. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while
using the treadmill. Do not wear loose
clothes that could become caught in the
treadmill. Athletic support clothes are
recommended for both men and women.
Always wear athletic shoes. Never use the
treadmill with bare feet, wearing only
stockings, or in sandals.
12. Plug the power cord into a surge
suppressor (not included), and plug the
surge suppressor into an appropriate
outlet (see page 10). To avoid
overloading the circuit, do not plug other
electrical devices, except for low-power
devices such as cell phone chargers,
into the surge suppressor or into an
outlet on the same circuit.
13. Use only a surge suppressor that meets
all of the specifications described on
page 10. To purchase a surge
suppressor, see your local WESLO
dealer, call the telephone number on the
front cover of this manual, or see your
local electronics store.
14. Failure to use a properly functioning
surge suppressor could result in damage
to the control system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the
walking belt may slow, accelerate, or
stop unexpectedly, which may result in a
fall and serious injury.
15. Keep the power cord and the surge
suppressor away from heated surfaces.
16. Never move the walking belt while the
power is turned off. Do not operate the
treadmill if the power cord or plug is
damaged, or if the treadmill is not
working properly. (See
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 18 if the
tread- mill is not working properly.)
17. Read, understand, and test the
emergency stop procedure before using
the treadmill (see HOW TO TURN ON
THE POWER on page 9).
18. Never start the treadmill while you are
standing on the walking belt. Always hold
the handrails while using the treadmill.
