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 incline trainer before using your incline trainer. 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 this incline trainer are adequately informed of all warnings and 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 incline trainer only as described in this manual.

4.The incline trainer is intended for home use only. Do not use the incline trainer in any commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

5.Keep the incline trainer indoors, away from moisture and dust. Do not put the incline trainer in a garage or covered patio, or near water.

6.Place the incline trainer on a level surface, with at least 8 ft. (2.4 m) of clearance behind it and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each side. Do not place the incline trainer on any surface that blocks air openings. To protect the floor or carpet from damage, place a mat under the incline trainer.

7.Do not operate the incline trainer where aerosol products are used or where oxygen is being administered.

8.Keep children under age 12 and pets away from the incline trainer at all times.

9.The incline trainer should be used only by persons weighing 350 lbs. (159 kg) or less.

10.Never allow more than one person on the incline trainer at a time.

11.Wear appropriate exercise clothes while using the incline trainer. Do not wear loose clothes that could become caught in the incline trainer. Athletic support clothes are

recommended for both men and women.

Always wear athletic shoes. Never use the incline trainer with bare feet, wearing only stockings, or in sandals.

12.Plug the power cord into a surge suppressor (not included), and plug the surge suppressor into an appropriate outlet (see page 14). To avoid overloading the circuit, do not plug other electrical devices, except for low-power devices such as cell phone chargers, into the surge suppressor or into an outlet on the same circuit.

13.Use only a surge suppressor that meets all of the specifications described on page 14. To purchase a surge suppressor, see your local NORDICTRACK dealer, call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual, or see your local electronics store.

14.Failure to use a properly functioning surge suppressor could result in damage to the control system of the incline trainer. If the control system is damaged, the walking belt may slow, accelerate, or stop unexpectedly, which may result in a fall and serious injury.

15.Keep the power cord and the surge suppressor away from heated surfaces.

16.Never move the walking belt while the power is turned off. Do not operate the incline trainer if the power cord or plug is damaged, or if the incline trainer is not working properly. (See TROUBLESHOOTING on page 30 if the incline trainer is not working properly.)

17.Read, understand, and test the emergency stop procedure before using the incline trainer (see HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 16).

18.Never start the incline trainer while you are standing on the walking belt. Always hold the handrails while using the incline trainer.

3

19.The incline trainer is capable of high speeds. Adjust the speed in small increments to avoid sudden jumps in speed.

20.The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user’s movement, 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.

21.Never leave the incline trainer unattended while it is running. Always remove the key, press the power switch into the off position (see the drawing on page 7 for the location of the power switch), and unplug the power cord when the incline trainer is not in use.

22.Do not attempt to move the incline trainer until it is properly assembled. (See ASSEMBLY on page 9, and HOW TO MOVE THE INCLINE TRAINER on page 29.) You must be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to raise, lower, or move the incline trainer.

23.Never insert any object into any opening on the incline trainer.

24.Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the incline trainer regularly.

25.DANGER: Always unplug the power cord immediately after use, before cleaning the incline trainer, and before performing the maintenance and adjustment procedures described in this manual. Never remove the motor hood unless instructed to do so by an authorized service representative. Servicing other than the procedures in this manual should be performed by an authorized service representative only.

26.Over exercising may result in serious injury or death. If you feel faint or if you experience pain while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
