IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-

tions before using the elliptical exerciser.

1. Read all instructions in this manual before

using the elliptical exerciser. 

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the elliptical exerciser are
adequately informed of all precautions.

3. The elliptical exerciser is intended for 

in-home use only. Do not use the elliptical
exerciser in a commercial, rental, or institu-
tional setting.

4. Place the elliptical exerciser on a level sur-

face, with a mat beneath it to protect the
floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical exerciser
indoors, away from moisture and dust. 

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 elliptical exerciser at all times.

7. The elliptical exerciser should not be used

by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when

using the elliptical exerciser. Always wear
athletic shoes for foot protection. 

9. Always hold the handlebars when mounting,

dismounting, or using the elliptical exerciser.

10. Keep your back straight when using the ellip-

tical exerciser; do not arch your back.

11. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercis-

ing, stop immediately and cool down.

12. 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.

13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals

to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-
tical exerciser does not have a free wheel;
the pedals will continue to move until the
flywheel stops.

14. Always unplug the power cord immediately

after use and before cleaning the elliptical
exerciser.

15. The decal shown below has been placed on

the elliptical exerciser. If the decal is missing
or illegible, please call our Customer Service
Department toll-free at 1-888-825-2588 to
order a free replacement decal. Apply the
decal in the location shown.

WARNING:

Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician.

This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health prob-
lems. Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or
property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.
