3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Safety Key
Before starting the treadmill, ensure the red magnetic safety key is properly placed in its designated slot on the armrest console. For safety, it is recommended to clip the other end of the safety key to your clothing. If the safety key is dislodged during operation, the treadmill will stop immediately.
3.2 Exercise Modes and Speed Adjustment
The Sperax Walking Pad Treadmill offers three primary exercise modes:
- Leisure Mode: 1-3 km/h (approx. 0.6-1.8 mph)
- Walking Mode: 1-5 km/h (approx. 0.6-3.1 mph)
- Running Mode: 5-10 km/h (approx. 3.1-6.2 mph)
Speed can be adjusted using the '+' and '-' buttons on the armrest console or the remote control. The '3/6' button allows for quick switching between lower (up to 3 mph) and higher (up to 6 mph) speed ranges.

5. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your treadmill.
5.1 Treadmill Not Starting
- Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into both the treadmill and a working electrical outlet.
- Verify that the main power switch at the base of the treadmill is in the 'on' position.
- Check that the safety key is correctly inserted into the console. The treadmill will not operate without it.
5.2 Abrupt Stop During Operation
If the treadmill stops suddenly, it is likely due to the safety key being dislodged. Re-insert the safety key firmly. For a controlled stop, always use the 'ON/OFF' button on the console or remote, which will gradually decrease speed to zero.
5.3 Unusual Noises
- A squeaking or grinding noise may indicate the need for belt lubrication. Refer to the Maintenance section.
