IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read the following important precautions and information before operating the treadmill. 12. Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the treadmill.
