Most problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. If further assistance is needed,

lease call our Customer Service Department.

FUNCTION PROPERLY

into the wire on the console (see assembly step 7
on page 5).

to static electricity build-up caused by certain
types of clothing or by the operation of the tread-
