Safety switch
Always attach the safety key to the safety switch before training and clamp the cord of the safety key to your clothing. Adjust the
cord length: If you stumble then you should activate the safety switch.
The safety switch was developed to turn off the motor for the treadmill and the height adjustment immediately if you fall off or find
yourself in an emergency situation. At high speeds it can be unpleasant and even a little dangerous if the treadmill immediately
stops. Therefore only use the safety switch for an emergency stop. To stop the treadmill safely, comfortably and completely under
normal conditions during training, please use the STOP button.
• Check the safety switch before the start of training.
Stand on the side platform and start the treadmill at minimum speed. Withdraw the safety key from the safety switch. The treadmill
should stop immediately. Then attach the safety key to the safety switch again and the cord to your clothing. Move to the back of
the stopped treadmill. The safety key must come loose from the safety switch. The cord should still stay attached to your clothing.
Afterwards fasten the safety key onto the safety switch again.
