1. Before beginning any exercise program,
consult your physician. This is especially
important for persons over age 35 or per-
sons with pre-existing health problems.
2. Use the elliptical only as described in this
manual.
3. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

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

age, place a mat under the elliptical.
7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

11. Hold the handlebars or the upper body arms
when mounting, dismounting, or using the

12. 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.
13. 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.
14. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-
tical; do not arch your back.
