Use and safety guidance

- Stop use if you experience dizziness, pain, or unusual fatigue.
Training programs
The 12 preset programs provide structured options to vary session intensity and duration. Users can select programs aligned with their goals and capabilities.
Electric vs. manual treadmills
Electric treadmills use a motor to drive the belt, allowing precise control of speed and incline and access to preset programs. Manual treadmills rely more on the user’s movement to turn the belt.
Selection considerations
- Motor power and duty suitability
- Maximum speed requirements
- Running surface dimensions
- Maximum user weight rating
- Number of incline levels
- Availability of preset programs
- Shock absorption characteristics
- Foldability for storage
Maintenance
- Clean the unit regularly and keep the belt area free of dust.
- Inspect the treadmill periodically.
- Follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions.
- Do not use the unit if any electrical or mechanical fault is observed.
- Ensure adequate ventilation and space around the machine.
Notes on suitability
Some older adults may use the treadmill at appropriate, lower speeds. Where health conditions or mobility limitations exist, consult a qualified professional and avoid high speeds or steep inclines unless deemed suitable.
