use of this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

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.
5. Keep the elliptical indoors, away from mois-
ture and dust. Do not put the elliptical in a
garage or covered patio, or near water.
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
side. To protect the floor or carpet from dam-
age, place a mat under the elliptical.
7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the elliptical at all times.
9. Do not attempt to place the elliptical in the

bled and the upright is folded. You must be
able to safely support 85 lbs. (38.5 kg) to

device. Various factors may affect the accu-
racy of heart rate readings. The heart rate

adapter if necessary.
Then, plug the power
adapter into an appro-
priate outlet that is
properly installed in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

rocks slightly on
your floor dur-
ing use, turn
one or both of
the leveling feet
beneath the rear

it requires two persons.
First, loosen the upright
knob and pull it, pull
the upright backward
until the latch locks into
place, and then release
the upright knob.
Next, pull the upright
forward slightly, lift
the latch, and then
lower the upright to the
folded position. Hold
the upright in one of
the indicated loca-
tions while you lower
the upright; do not
hold the upper body
arms.
Then, lift the handle on the front stabilizer until the

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.
HOW TO STORE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, storing
it requires two persons. CAUTION: You must be
