This treadmill can be seriously damaged by sudden voltage changes in your home’s
electrical power. Voltage spikes, surges, and noise interference can result from
weather conditions or from other appliances being turned on or off. To reduce the
possibility of treadmill damage, always use a dedicated surge protector (not
included) with your treadmill.
Surge protectors can be purchased at most hardware stores. The manufacturer
recommends a single outlet surge protector with UL 1449 rating as a Transient
Voltage Surge Suppressor (TVSS) with UL suppressed voltage rating of 400V or less
and an electrical rating of 120VAC, 15 amps.
This treadmill must be grounded to reduce the risk of electrical shock. Grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current should the treadmill malfunction.
This treadmill comes with an electrical cord with an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug. Always plug the power cord into a surge protector, and plug the
surge protector into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not connect other equipment to
the surge protector or this could cause permanent damage to your treadmill.
