Statement of Purpose: The Exercise Bike is an exercise machine that enables users to simulate cycling in an
upright position.

Health-related injuries may result from incorrect or excessive use of exercise equipment. Life Fitness
STRONGLY recommends seeing a physician for a complete medical exam before undertaking an exercise
program, particularly if the user has a family history of high blood pressure or heart disease; or is over the
age of 45; or smokes, has high cholesterol, is obese, or has not exercised regularly in the past year. Life
Fitness also recommends consulting a fitness professional on the correct use of this product.

If, at any time while exercising, the user experiences faintness, dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath, he or
she must stop immediately.

Des problèmes de santé peuvent être causés par une utilisation incorrecte ou excessive de l'équipement.
Life Fitness conseille VIVEMENT de consulter un médecin pour subir un examen médical complet avant de
commencer tout programme d'exercice, et tout particulièrement si l'utilisateur a des antécédents familiaux
d'hypertension ou de troubles cardiaques, ou s'il a plus de 45 ans, s'il fume, s'il a du cholestérol, s'il est
obèse ou n'a pas fait d'exercice régulièrement depuis un an. Life Fitness recommande également de
consulter un professionnel du conditionnement physique pour savoir comment utiliser correctement ce
produit.

Si, pendant l'utilisation de l'appareil, l'utilisateur ressent un malaise, des vertiges, des douleurs ou des
difficultés à respirer, il doit s'arrêter immédiatement.
