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.

overloading the circuit, do not plug other
electrical devices, except for low-power
devices such as cell phone chargers, into an
outlet on the same circuit.
10. 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.
11. Do not operate the elliptical if the power cord
or plug is damaged, or if the elliptical is not
working properly.
12. Always unplug the power cord and switch
the power switch to the off position when the

17. 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.
18. 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.
19. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-
tical; do not arch your back.
20. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be earthed. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, earthing provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This product’s power cord has an
equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug.
IMPORTANT: If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced with a manufacturer-recommended
power cord.
Follow the steps below to plug in the power cord.
1. Plug the indicated end of the power cord into the
socket on the frame.
2. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and earthed in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER: Improper connection of
the equipment-earthing conductor can result
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
you are in doubt as to whether the product
is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product—if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician

HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving
it requires two persons. Stand in front of the elliptical,
hold the upright, and place one foot against one of the
wheels. Pull on the upright and have a second person
lift the handle until the elliptical will roll on the wheels.
Carefully move the elliptical to the desired location, and
then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical
rocks slightly
on your floor
during use,
turn one or
both of the
leveling feet
beneath the
rear of the
frame until the rocking motion is eliminated.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the handlebars or the
upper body arms and step onto the pedal that is in the
lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push
the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
motion. Note: The pedals can turn in either direc-
tion. It is recommended that you turn the pedals
in the direction shown by the arrow; however, for
variety, you can turn the pedals in the opposite
direction.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to
a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not have
a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until
the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary,
step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower
pedal.

time, the incline of the ramp may calibrate auto-
matically. The ramp will move upward and downward
as it calibrates. When the ramp stops moving, the ramp
is calibrated.
IMPORTANT: If the incline of the ramp does not
calibrate automatically, see HOW TO CALIBRATE
THE RAMP on page 26 and manually calibrate
the ramp.

5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either the
handgrip heart rate monitor or an optional chest
heart rate monitor (see page 24 for information
about the optional chest heart rate monitor).
Note: If you use both heart rate monitors at the
same time, the console will not display your
heart rate accurately.
If there are
sheets of plas-
tic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip heart
rate monitor,
remove the
plastic. To mea-
sure your heart
rate, hold the handgrip heart rate monitor with your
palms resting against the contacts. Avoid moving
your hands or gripping the contacts tightly.
When your pulse is detected, a heart symbol will
flash in the display each time your heart beats,
one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart
rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds.
If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the contacts tightly. For optimal perfor-
mance, clean the contacts using a soft cloth; never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the contacts.

The fan has low and
high speed settings.
Press the fan increase
and decrease buttons
repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the
fan.

seconds, the fan will turn off automatically.
7. When you are finished exercising, unplug the
power cord.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
tone will sound and the console will pause.
If the pedals do not move for several minutes and
the buttons are not pressed, the console will turn
off and the display will be reset.
When you are finished exercising, press the power
switch to the off position and unplug the power
cord. IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the
electrical components on the elliptical may
wear prematurely.
