SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, read

all important precautions and instructions in this manual and all warnings on your elliptical before

using your elliptical. ICON assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sus-

tained by or through the use of this product.

1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the elliptical are adequately

informed of all precautions.

2. Before beginning any exercise program,

consult your physician. This is especially

important for persons over age 35 or persons

with pre-existing health problems.

3. Use the elliptical only as described in this

manual.

4. The elliptical is intended for home use only.

Do not use the elliptical in a commercial,

rental, or institutional setting.

5. Keep the elliptical indoors, away from mois-

ture and dust. Do not put the elliptical in a

garage or covered patio, or near water.

6. Place the elliptical on a level surface, with at

least 3 ft. (0.9 m) of clearance in the front and

rear of the elliptical and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each

side. To protect the floor or carpet from dam-

age, place a mat under the elliptical.

7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away

from the elliptical at all times.

9. Do not modify the power cord or use an

adapter to connect the power cord to an

improper receptacle. Keep the power cord

away from heated surfaces. Do not use an

extension cord.

10. Do not operate the elliptical if the power cord

or plug is damaged, or if the elliptical is not

working properly.

11. Always unplug the power cord when the ellip-

tical is not in use.

12. DANGER: Always unplug the power

cord and switch the power switch to the off

position when the elliptical is not in use and

before cleaning the elliptical. Servicing other

than the procedures in this manual should be

performed by an authorized service repre-

sentative only.

13. The elliptical should not be used by persons

weighing more than 350 lbs. (159 kg).

14. Wear appropriate clothes while exercising;

do not wear loose clothes that could become

caught on the elliptical. Always wear athletic

shoes for foot protection while exercising.

15. Hold the handlebars or the upper body arms

when mounting, dismounting, or using the

elliptical.

16. The heart rate monitor is not a medical

device. Various factors may affect the accu-

racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate

monitor is intended only as an exercise aid in

determining heart rate trends in general.

17. The elliptical does not have a freewheel; the

pedals will continue to move until the fly-

wheel stops. Reduce your pedaling speed in

a controlled way.

18. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-

tical; do not arch your back.

19. Over exercising may result in serious injury

or death. If you feel faint or if you experience

pain while exercising, stop immediately and

cool down.
