Your treadmill, like any other type of sophisticated
electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged by
sudden voltage changes in your home's power,
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off, To decrease the possibility of
your treadmill being damaged, aJways use a surge
suppressor with your treadmill (see drawing 1 at
the right). To purchase a surge suppressor, see
your tocaJ NealthRider dealer or can the toN-free
teJephone number on the front cover of this man-
ual and order part number 146148, or see your JocaJ
electronics store.
Use onJy a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL 1449 Jisted as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS}. The surge suppressor must have a
UL suppressed vottage rating of 400 volts or tess
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated for
120 volts AC and 15 amps. There must be a moni-
toring Hght on the surge suppressor to indicate
whether it is functioning properly. Failure to use a
properJy functioning surge suppressor could resuJt
in damage to the controt system of the treadmill. If
the control system is damaged, the waJking belt
may change speed, accelerate or stop unexpect-
edly, which may result in a fail and serious injury.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc°
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of ebc°
tric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug, Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor,
and pJug the surge suppressor into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with aH JocaJ codes and ordinances.
Important: The treadmill is not compatible with
GFOl-equipped outJets.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below, A temporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available,

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electrician,
The greenocolored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover,
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw, Some 2-poJe receptacle outJet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
