NEVER operate this treadmill without reading and completely understanding the results of
any operational change you request from the computer.
UNDERSTAND that changes in speed and incline do not occur immediately. Set your
desired speed on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will
obey the command gradually.
NEVER use your treadmill during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household
power supply that could damage treadmill components. Removing safety cord will protect
the unit.
USE CAUTION while participating in other activities while walking on your treadmill; such
as watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance or
stray from walking in the center of the belt; which may result in serious injury.
NEVER mount or dismount the treadmill while the belt is moving. Smooth treadmills start
with zero speed and it is unnecessary to straddle the belt during start up. Simply standing
on the belt during slow acceleration is proper after you have learned to operate the unit.
ALWAYS hold on to a handrail or grab bar while making control changes (incline, speed,
etc.). Do not use excessive pressure on console control overlays. They are precision set
to function properly with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit
go faster or slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure
contact your Smooth dealer; adjustments can be made. All buttons should operate and
control treadmill functions without excessive finger effort. Damage to overlay will result if
excessive control pressure continues.
Important Operation Instructions
Safety Tether Cord
A safety tether cord is provided with this unit. It is a simple mag-
netic design that should be used at all times. It is for your safety
should you fall or move too far back on the treadbelt. Pulling this
safety tether cord will stop treadbelt movement.
To Use:
1. Place magnet into position on the console control head. Your treadmill will not start
or operate without this. Removing the magnet also secures the treadmill from
unauthorized use.
2. Fasten the black plastic clip onto your clothing securely.
Note: The magnet has strong enough power to minimize accidental, unexpected stopping
and the clip should be attached securely to make certain it does not come off. Be familiar
with its function and limitations. Use the adjustment system to assure proper length of cord.
The treadmill will stop, depending on speed, with a two to three step coast anytime the
magnet is pulled off the console. Use the red [STOP/PAUSE] switch in normal operation.
