IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-

tions before using the elliptical crosstrainer.

1. Read all instructions in this manual before

using the elliptical crosstrainer.

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the elliptical crosstrainer

are adequately informed of all precautions.

3. The elliptical crosstrainer is intended for

home use only. Do not use the elliptical

crosstrainer in a commercial, rental, or insti-

tutional setting.

4. Place the elliptical crosstrainer on a level

surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the

floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical crosstrain-

er indoors, away from moisture and dust.

5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from

the elliptical crosstrainer at all times.

7. The elliptical crosstrainer should not be used

by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when

using the elliptical crosstrainer. Always wear

athletic shoes for foot protection while exer-

cising.

9. Hold the center handlebar or the left and right

handlebars when mounting, dismounting, or

using the elliptical crosstrainer.

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 when using the ellip-

tical crosstrainer; do not arch your back.

12. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercis-

ing, stop immediately and cool down.

13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals

to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-

tical crosstrainer does not have a free

wheel; the pedals will continue to move until

the flywheel stops.

14. Always unplug the power cord immediately

after use and before cleaning the elliptical

crosstrainer.

15. The decal shown below has been placed on

the elliptical crosstrainer. If the decal is

missing or illegible, please call our

Customer Service Department toll-free at

1-800-999-3756 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 prob-

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

property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL

CROSSTRAINER

To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the center han-

dlebar and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest

position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the

pedals until they begin to move with a continuous

motion. Note: The crank arms (inside of the side

shields) can be turned in either direction. It is rec-

ommended that you turn the crank arms in the

same direction that you pedal a bicycle; however,

for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the

opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the

pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical

crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-

als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.

When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest

pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

The motion of

the pedals is

determined by

their positions on

the flex bars.

There are five

positions. To

adjust each

pedal, first

loosen the knob

beneath the

pedal. Next,

push the bolt

upward, slide the pedal forward or backward to the

desired position, and then retighten the knob. Make

sure that both pedals are in the same position.
