Never leave the equipment unattended when it is plugged

in. Unplug the equipment from its power source when it is

not in use, before cleaning it, and before providing

Use the power adapter provided with the equipment. Plug

the power adapter into an appropriate, grounded power

outlet as marked on the equipment.

Care should be taken when mounting or dismounting the

equipment.

Read, understand, and test the emergency stop

procedures before use.

Keep the power cord or optional power adapter and plug

away from heated surfaces.

Route power cables so that they are not walked on,

pinched, or damaged by items placed upon or against

them, including the equipment itself.

Ensure the equipment has adequate ventilation. Do not

place anything on top of or over the equipment. Do not

use on a cushioned surface that could block the

ventilation opening.

Assemble and operate the equipment on a solid, level

surface.

Locate equipment at least 40 inches (1 meter) away from

walls or furniture on either side of the equipment, and 40

inches (1 meter) away from objects behind the

equipment. These standards should also be used when

positioning equipment away from sources of heat, such as

radiators, heat registers, and stoves. Avoid temperature

extremes.

Keep equipment away from water and moisture. Avoid

dropping anything on or spilling anything inside the

equipment to prevent electric shock or damage to the

electronics.

Do not operate electrically powered equipment in damp

or wet locations.

Never operate this equipment if it has a damaged cord or

plug, if it is not working properly, or if it has been dropped,

damaged, or exposed to water. Call for service

immediately if any of these conditions exist.

Educating Users

Take time to educate users about the Important Safety

Instructions found in both the User Reference Manual and

Product Owner’s Manual. Explain to your club or facility

patrons that they should observe the following precautions:

Hold onto a stationary handrail or handlebar while

assuming the starting position on the equipment.

Face the console at all times.

Hold on to a stationary handrail or handlebar with one

hand whenever you operate the console keys with the

other hand.

Hazardous Materials and Proper Disposal

The batteries within self-powered equipment contain

materials that are considered hazardous to the environment.

Federal law requires proper disposal of these batteries.

If you plan to dispose of your equipment, contact Precor

Commercial Products Customer Support for information

regarding battery removal. Refer to Obtaining Service.

Product Recycling and Disposal

This equipment must be recycled or discarded according to

applicable local and national regulations.

Product labels, in accordance with European Directive

2002/96/EC concerning waste electrical and electronic

equipment (WEEE), determine the framework for the return

and recycling of used equipment as applicable throughout the

European Union. The WEEE label indicates that the product is

not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life

per this Directive.

In accordance with the European WEEE Directive, electrical

and electronic equipment (EEE) is to be collected separately

and to be reused, recycled, or recovered at end of life. Users

of EEE with the WEEE label per Annex IV of the WEEE

Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted

municipal waste, but use the collection framework available

to customers for the return, recycling, and recovery of WEEE.

Customer participation is important to minimize any potential

effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to

the potential presence of hazardous substances in EEE. For

proper collection and treatment, refer to Obtaining Service.
