larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from your elliptical exerciser at all times.

Various factors, including the user’s move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

plug the other end into an outlet installed in
accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
