The Peloton Tread: Thoughtfully designed with safety in mind

Safety key

Clip it on while running and know that the Peloton Tread will come to a quick stop if detached. Avoid unintended use by removing the safety key after your workout and storing it out of reach of children.

Intuitive Knobs

Stay in control of your run with intuitive knobs at your side that allow you to seamlessly add or reduce speed & incline -- focusing on your workout, not your settings.

Stop Button

Simply press the red stop button at your fingertips when running or walking on the belt to bring it to a stop.

Safety Guidance for Tread and Tread+

Keep children under the age of 16, pets and objects away from the Tread at all times. Users must not be under 48kg or over 136kg. Keep the area around the Tread clear of furniture, exercise equipment or other objects, and abide by clearance requirements listed in your product manual at all times. Never put anything under the Tread or reach under the Tread while it is powered on. Remove the Safety Key and store it in a separate location when the Tread is not in use and keep it out of the reach of children. Always switch power off, unplug the Tread and remove the Safety Key before cleaning and when the Tread is not in use.
