Read all instructions before using the equipment. These
instructions are written for your safety and to protect the
equipment.
Other sections in this manual provide more details of safety
features. Be sure to read these sections and observe all safety
notices.
Take time to discuss proper safety and exercise equipment
etiquette with the fitness facility manager.
Before beginning any fitness program, see your physician for a
complete physical examination.
Il est conseillé de subir un examen médical complet avant
d’entreprendre tout programme d’exercise. Si vous avez des
étourdissements ou des faiblesses, arrêtez les exercices
immédiatement.
Do not overexert yourself or work to exhaustion. If you feel any
pain or abnormal symptoms, stop your workout immediately and
consult your physician.
Do not allow children or people unfamiliar with its operation on
or near the equipment. Do not leave children unsupervised
around the equipment.
Wear proper exercise clothing and shoes for your workout and
avoid loose clothing. Do not wear shoes with heels or leather
soles. Check the soles of your shoes and remove any dirt and
embedded stones. Tie long hair back.
For safety, hold onto a stationary handrail or handlebar while
using the equipment.
Keep your body and head facing forward. Never attempt to turn
around on the equipment.
Do not rock the equipment. Do not stand on the handrail(s),
display console, or hood.
Use care when getting on or off the treadmill. Always grasp the
handrail when stepping on the running belt and keep the initial
speed at or below 1 mile per hour (mph) or 1 kilometer per hour
(kph). Never step off the treadmill while the running belt is
moving.
Before the running belt begins moving (before your workout),
and after it stops (at the end of your workout), straddle the
running belt by placing your feet firmly on the right and left trim
strips.
The safety clip must be attached at waist level before your
workout. A lanyard connects the safety clip to the red STOP
button on the display console. If you encounter difficulties, a
strong tug on the lanyard stops the running belt.
