consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
3. The elliptical is not intended for use by

manual.
5. The elliptical is intended for home use only.
Do not use the elliptical in a commercial,

ture and dust. Do not put the elliptical in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.
7. Place the elliptical on a level surface, with at
least 3 ft. (0.9 m) of clearance in the front and
rear of the elliptical and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each
side. To protect the floor or carpet from dam-
age, place a mat under the elliptical.

when mounting, dismounting, or using the

13. The heart rate monitor is not a medical
device. Various factors may affect the accu-
racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate
monitor is intended only as an exercise aid
in determining heart rate trends in general.
14. The elliptical does not have a freewheel; the
pedals will continue to move until the fly-
wheel stops. Reduce your pedaling speed in
a controlled way.
15. Keep your back straight while using the
