IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
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 sustained 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.
5. Keep the elliptical indoors, away from moisture 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 damage, place a mat under the elliptical.
7. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
8. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the elliptical at all times.
9. When connecting the power cord, plug the
power cord into a grounded circuit. To avoid
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
elliptical is not in use.
13. DANGER:Always unplug the power
cord when the elliptical is not in use and
before cleaning the elliptical. Servicing other
than the procedures in this manual should be
performed by an authorized service representative only.
14. The elliptical should not be used by persons
weighing more than 325 lbs. (147 kg).
15. Wear appropriate clothes while exercising;
do not wear loose clothes that could become
caught on the elliptical. Always wear athletic
shoes for foot protection while exercising.
16. Hold the handlebars or the upper body arms
when mounting, dismounting, or using the
elliptical.
17. The heart rate monitor is not a medical
device. Various factors may affect the accuracy 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 flywheel stops. Reduce your pedaling speed in
a controlled way.
19. Keep your back straight while using the elliptical; do not arch your back.
20. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint or if you experience
pain while exercising, stop immediately and

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a
grounding pin.
DANGER:Improper connection of
the power cord increases the risk of electric
shock. Do not modify the plug; if it will not fit
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether
the product is properly grounded, contact a
qualified electrician.
Plug the
power cord
into an
appropriate
outlet that
is properly
installed and
grounded in
accordance
with all local
codes and
ordinances. The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt
circuit.
Grounded Outlet
Grounding Pin
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle
as shown
at the right
if a properly
grounded
outlet is not
available.
The lug or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a qualified electrician to determine whether the outlet
box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.

the profile will begin to flash. If a different resistance level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm is
programmed for the next segment, the resistance
level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm will
appear in the display for a few seconds to alert
you. The resistance of the pedals and the incline
level of the ramp will then change.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select a preset workout, press the 12 Calorie
Workouts or the 12 Performance Workouts button
repeatedly until the desired workout appears in the

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons
over age 35 or persons with pre-existing
health problems.
The heart rate monitor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for
successful results.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning and aerobic exercise.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin
to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to
burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.
Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic
exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts
of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your
heart rate is near the highest number in your training
zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise ; never hold your breath.
To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your
age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is
the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week,
if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make
exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
