•Place the unit on a firm, horizontal, level and non-slip surface and level the unit with the
adjusting screws so that it does not wobble.
•The free area around the unit must be at least 1 m larger than the movement range of the
unit to ensure safe access and egress from the unit even in emergencies. However, the
safety clearances may overlap (see picture).
•Only place the appliance in dry rooms at , .
•Make sure that there is no electromagnetic radiation, e.g. from radio antennas, radiating
fluorescent tubes, etc., as these can affect the pulse measurement.
•The underside of the frame must always be free for sufficient ventilation.
•All the units mentioned here are mains-independent. They generate the power themselves during operation or are
supplied with power during programming by the standard built-in capacitor. The capacitor is charged by training
and has a life span of > 20000 cycles.
•Attention: Please always follow the instructions for care, maintenance and servicing in chapter 5 of this manual.
Safe training
•Before starting training, the fitness for training should be checked by an authorised person, e.g. a doctor. Please
note the point "Indications and contraindications".
•Note that excessive exercise can be harmful.
•If nausea or dizziness occurs, stop training immediately and consult a doctor.
•Training on the equipment is only permitted with intact skin.
•When training, tight-fitting, lightweight sports clothing is preferable so that it cannot get caught in parts of the
device during training. Always wear suitable sports shoes for a secure footing on the pedals.
•Before starting the training, check the unit for safe standing, defective parts or possible manipulations. If you find
any defects or are not sure, ask the supervisor before starting the training.
•Before starting the training, make sure that no one is near the moving parts to avoid endangering third parties.
Above all, unsupervised children must be kept away from the equipment.
•The crosstrainer does not have a free wheel. Therefore, the exercise cannot be stopped abruptly by the user.
Therefore, use the pause/stop button on the display or let the movement slow down.
•The pause/stop button is always active as a safety function and brakes the movement immediately when the
button is pressed. In addition, the unit has a speed limit, which is set to 80 rpm by default. If you try to go above 80
rpm, the speed is pushed back below the limit by means of a brake intervention. If you would like to adjust the
limit, please contact our service department.
•In order to train biomechanically correctly, no adjustments need to be made to the device. It is only necessary to
ensure that the feet are completely on the pedals and that the moving handles are gripped at about shoulder
height. Avoid hunched backs or bar cross positions when exercising and never keep your knee and elbow joints in
an unbent position (0=position).
•For training the lower extremity only, use the rigid handles. Please note that the movable handles swing and could
injure you.
