IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

    WARNING:

 To reduce the risk of serious injury, read all important precautions and 

instructions in this manual and all warnings on your exercise bike before using your exercise bike. 
ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sustained by or through the 
use of this product.

1.  It is the responsibility of the owner to 

ensure that all users of the exercise bike are 
adequately informed of all precautions. 

2.  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.

3.  The exercise bike is not intended for use by 

persons with reduced physical, sensory, or 
mental capabilities or lack of experience and 
knowledge, unless they are given supervi-
sion or instruction about use of the exercise 
bike by someone responsible for their safety.

4.  Use the exercise bike only as described in 

this manual.

5.  The exercise bike is intended for home use 

only. Do not use the exercise bike in a com-
mercial, rental, or institutional setting.

6.  Keep the exercise bike indoors, away from 

moisture and dust. Do not put the exercise 
bike in a garage or covered patio, or near 
water.

7.  Place the exercise bike 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 bike. 

8.  Inspect and properly tighten all parts each 

time the exercise bike is used. Replace any 
worn parts immediately. Use only manufac-
turer-supplied parts.

9.  Keep children under age 16 and pets away 

from the exercise bike at all times.

10. Wear appropriate clothes while exercising; 

do not wear loose clothes that could become 
caught on the exercise bike. Always wear 
athletic shoes for foot protection.

11. The exercise bike should not be used 

by persons weighing more than 253 lbs. 
(115 kg).

12. Be careful when mounting and dismounting 

the exercise bike. 

13. Always keep your back straight while using 

the exercise bike; do not arch your back.

14. The exercise bike does not have a freewheel; 

the pedals will continue to move until the 
flywheel stops. Reduce your pedaling speed 
in a controlled way.

15. To stop the flywheel quickly, press the 

resistance knob downward.

16. When the exercise bike is not in use, tighten 

the resistance knob completely to prevent 
the flywheel from moving.

17. To avoid damaging the brake pads, do not 

lubricate the brake pads.

18. Over exercising may result in serious injury 

or death. If you feel faint, if you become short 
of breath, or if you experience pain while 
exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
