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 and all

warnings on the elliptical exerciser before

using the elliptical exerciser. Use the ellipti-

cal exercise only as described in this

manual. 

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 

home use only. Do not use the elliptical

exerciser in a commercial, rental, or institu-

tional setting.

4. Keep the elliptical exerciser indoors, away

from moisture and dust. Place the elliptical

exerciser on a level surface, with a mat

beneath it to protect the floor or carpet.

Make sure that there is enough clearance

around the elliptical exerciser to mount, dis-

mount, and use it. 

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 275 lbs. 

(124 kg).

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while

using the elliptical exerciser. Always wear

athletic shoes for foot protection while exer-

cising.

9. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor or the han-

dlebars when mounting, dismounting, or

using the elliptical exerciser.

10. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors may affect the accuracy of

heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is

intended only as an exercise aid in determin-

ing heart rate trends in general.

11. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-

tical exerciser; do not arch your back.

12. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising,

stop immediately and cool down.

13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals

to slowly come to a stop.

14. The decal shown below has been placed on

the elliptical exerciser. If the decal is miss-

ing or illegible, 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.

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. Sears assumes no responsibility for personal injury or
