WARNING:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and
instructions in this manual and all warnings on your exercise cycle before using your exercise
cycle. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or
through the use of this product.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
1. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the exercise cycle are ade-
quately informed of all precautions.
3. The exercise cycle is intended for home use
only. Do not use the exercise cycle in a com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Keep the exercise cycle indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Place the exercise cycle
on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to
protect the floor or carpet. Make sure that
there is at least 2 ft. (0.6 m) of clearance
around the exercise cycle.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the exercise cycle at all times.
7. The exercise cycle should not be used by
persons weighing more than 250 lbs.
(113 kg).
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while
exercising; do not wear loose clothes that
could become caught on the exercise cycle.
Always wear athletic shoes for foot protec-
tion while exercising.
9. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.
10. Keep your back straight while using the exer-
cise cycle; do not arch your back.
11. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a stop.
12. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience
pain while exercising, stop immediately and
cool down.
13. Use the exercise cycle only as described in
this manual.
14. When connecting the link arms to the pedals,
make sure that the link arms are fully seated
on the pedal bushings (see HANDLEBAR
OPERATION on page 11). If the link arms are
not on the pedal bushings, they may slip off
during use, resulting in injury to the user.
15. When adjusting the height of the seat, make
sure that the pin on the seat knob is inserted
into one of the adjustment holes in the seat
post (see HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT on
page 11). Do not rest the seat post on top of
the pin on the seat knob.
