What should consumers do now? - Stop using the Peloton Tread+ if there are small children or pets at home. Incidents suggest that children may be seriously injured while the Tread+ is being used by an adult, not just when a child has unsupervised access to the machine.

- If consumers must continue to use the product, CPSC urges consumers to use the product only in a locked room, to prevent access to children and pets while the treadmill is in use. Keep all objects, including exercise balls and other equipment, away from the treadmill.

- When not in use, unplug the Tread+ and store the safety key away from the device and out of reach of children. - Report any Peloton Tread+ incidents to CPSC at http://www.SaferProducts.gov or to CPSC’s Hotline at 800-638-2772.
