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. The incline trainer is not intended for use
by persons with reduced physical, sensory,
or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning use of
the incline trainer by someone responsible
for their safety.

4. Use the incline trainer only as described in
this manual.

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

6. 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.

7. 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.

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

9. Keep children under age 13 and pets away
from the incline trainer at all times.

10. The incline trainer should be used only by
persons weighing 297 lbs. (135 kg) or less.

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

12. 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.

13. When connecting the power cord (see page

12), plug the power cord into an earthed
circuit. No other appliance should be on the
same circuit. When replacing the fuse in the
power cord adapter, insert an ASTA-approved
BS1362, 13-amp fuse into the fuse carrier.

14. If an extension cord is needed, use only a
3-conductor, 14-gauge (1 mm2) cord that is
no longer than 5 ft. (1.5 m).

15. Keep the power cord 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 MAINTENANCE
AND TROUBLESHOOTING on page 21 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 14). Always wear the clip while using
the incline trainer.

18. Always stand on the foot rails when starting
or stopping the walking belt. Always hold the
handrails while using the incline trainer.

19. When a person is walking on the incline
trainer, the noise level of the incline trainer
will increase.

3

20. Keep fingers, hair, and clothing away from
the moving walking belt.

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

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

22. 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.

23. 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 5 for the location of
the power switch), and unplug the power cord
when the incline trainer is not in use.

24. Do not attempt to move the incline trainer
until it is properly assembled. (See
ASSEMBLY on page 7, and HOW TO MOVE
THE INCLINE TRAINER on page 20.) You must
be able to safely lift 45 lbs. (20 kg) to raise,
lower, or move the incline trainer.

26. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each
time the incline trainer is used.

27. 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.

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

After the incline trainer is placed in the loca-
