IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING - Read all instructions before using this appliance.
DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock disconnect your SOLE elliptical from the
electrical outlet prior to cleaning and/or service work.
WARNING - To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install
the elliptical on a flat level surface with access to a 220-volt, 15-amp grounded outlet with
only the elliptical plugged into the circuit.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT IS A 14AWG OR BETTER, WITH
ONLY ONE OUTLET ON THE END: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISABLE THE
GROUNDED PLUG BY USING IMPROPER ADAPTERS, OR IN ANY WAY MODIFY
THE CORD SET.
A serious shock or fire hazard may result along with computer malfunctions. See Grounding Instructions,
page 4.
Do not operate elliptical on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both
carpet and elliptical may result.
Keep children away from the elliptical. There are obvious pinch points and other
caution areas that can cause harm.
Keep hands away from all moving parts.
Never operate the elliptical if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the elliptical is not
working properly, call your dealer.
Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
Do not operate where aerosol spray products are being used or where oxygen is
being administered. Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous environment.
Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
Do not use outdoors.
To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position and then remove the plug from the
outlet.
Do not attempt to use your elliptical for any purpose other than for the purpose it is
intended.
The hand pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user’s
movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are
intended only as exercise aids in determining heart rate trends in general.
Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals or bare feet are not suitable for
use on your elliptical. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to avoid leg fatigue.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power.
If voltage varies by ten percent (10%) or more, the performance of your elliptical may be
affected. Such conditions are not covered under your warranty. If you suspect the
voltage is low, contact your local power company or a licensed electrician for proper testing.
NEVER expose this elliptical to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use
outdoors, near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The operating
temperature specification is 40 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and humidity is 95%
non-condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If the elliptical should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric
shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in
doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 220-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated below
may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet, (shown below) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored
rigid ear-lug, or the like, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must
be held in place by a metal screw.

IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
NEVER operate this elliptical without reading and completely understanding the results
of any operational change you request from the computer.
Understand that changes in resistance and incline do not occur immediately. Set your
desired resistance level on the computer console and release the adjustment key.
The computer will obey the command gradually.
NEVER use your elliptical during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your
household power supply that could damage elliptical components. Unplug the elliptical
during an electrical storm as a precaution.
Use caution while participating in other activities while using your elliptical; such as
watching television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance;
which may result in serious injury.
Always hold on to a handle bar while making control changes (incline, level, etc.).
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to
function properly with little finger pressure. If you feel the buttons are not functioning
properly with normal pressure contact your SOLE dealer.
