Care and Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Viamotion Walking Pad Treadmill.
1. Cleaning
Wipe down the treadmill surface with a damp cloth after each use to remove sweat and dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish. Ensure the treadmill is unplugged before cleaning.
