SAFE OPERATION

™



WARNING

THESE GUIDELINES ARE DIRECTED TO YOU, AS THE OWNER OF THE MACHINE. YOU SHOULD INSIST THAT ALL USERS FOLLOW THE SAME GUIDELINES.



WARNING!

Do not begin an exercise program without ﬁ rst consulting a physician.



WARNING!

If at any time during your workout you feel chest pain, experience severe muscular discomfort, feel faint, or are short of breath, stop exercising immediately. If the condition persists, you should consult your medical doctor immediately.

General Guidelines For Safe Operation

1. Obtain a complete physical examination from your medical doctor and enlist a health/ﬁ tness professional’s aid in developing an exercise program suitable for your current health status.

2. When working out for the ﬁ rst time, use the MANUAL exercise program at the lower levels until you feel comfortable and capable of higher workloads.

3. The intensity and duration of your exercise program should always be subject to how you feel. Never permit peer pressure to override your personal judgment while exercising.

4. Overweight or severely deconditioned individuals should be particularly cautious when using the machine for the ﬁ rst time. Even though such individuals may not have histories of serious physical problems, they may perceive the exercise to be far less intense than it really is, resulting in the possibility of overexertion or injury.

5. Although all equipment manufactured by Nautilus, Inc. has been thoroughly inspected by the manufacturing facility prior to shipment, proper installation and regular maintenance are required to ensure safety. Maintenance is the sole responsibility of the owner.

Moving Your Machine

Note: The transport wheels are intended for indoor use only and should never be rolled on concrete or asphalt surfaces.
