IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

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

tions before using the elliptical crosstrainer.

1. Read all instructions in this manual before

using the elliptical crosstrainer. 

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

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

3. The elliptical crosstrainer is intended for 

in-home use only. Do not use the elliptical
crosstrainer in a commercial, rental, or insti-
tutional setting.

4. Place the elliptical crosstrainer on a level

surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the
floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical crosstrain-
er 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 crosstrainer at all times.

7. The elliptical crosstrainer should not be used

by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when

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

9. Always hold the handlebar or the upper

body arms when mounting, dismounting, or
using the elliptical crosstrainer. 

10. Keep your back straight when using the ellip-

tical crosstrainer; 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 crosstrainer 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
crosstrainer.

15. The decal shown below has been placed on

the elliptical crosstrainer. 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.
