RECAUTIONS

1. Read all instructions in this manual and all

warnings on the elliptical exerciser 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. Use the elliptical exerciser only as described

in this manual.

4. The elliptical exerciser is intended for home

use only. Do not use the elliptical exerciser in

a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

5. Keep the elliptical exerciser indoors, away

from moisture and dust. Place the elliptical

exerciser on a level surface, with a mat be-

neath it to protect the floor or carpet. Make

sure that there is enough clearance around

the elliptical exerciser to mount, dismount,

and use it.

6. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately. 

7. Keep children under age 12 and pets away

from the elliptical exerciser at all times.

8. The elliptical exerciser should not be used by

persons weighing more than 350 pounds.

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 exercising,

stop immediately and begin cooling down.

12. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

using the elliptical exerciser. Always wear

athletic shoes for foot protection. 

13. 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.

14. 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 fly-

wheel stops.

15. The battery pack contains materials that are

considered hazardous to the environment.

Proper disposal of the battery is required by

federal law. See HOW TO REPLACE THE

BATTERY PACK on page 21.

16. The decals shown on page 4 have been

placed on the elliptical exerciser. If either

decal is missing or illegible, please call the

toll-free telephone number on the front cover

of this manual and 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 problems.

Read all instructions before using. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property

damage sustained by or through the use of this product.
