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).

GROUNDINGINSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If the elliptical should malfunction or breakdown, ground-
ing 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 11O-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.
