this product.

1. Before beginning any exercise program,

consult your physician. This is especially

important for persons over age 35 or per-

sons with pre-existing health problems.

2. Use the elliptical only as described in this

3. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the elliptical are adequately

informed of all precautions.

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

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

7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away

device. Various factors may affect the accu-

racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate

a controlled way.

14. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-
