This Cross-Trainer is a home exercise machine that combines low-impact elliptical pedaling with push/pull arm motion to provide an efficient, effective total body workout.

Product-specific features for each model are described in this manual under “Specifications.”

Warning: Injuries to health may result from incorrect or excessive training. See the “Correct Usage” section on page 17.

Life Fitness STRONGLY recommends consulting your doctor before undertaking any exercise program, particularly if the user has a family history of high blood pressure or heart disease, is over the age of 45, smokes, has high cholesterol, is obese, or has not exercised regularly in the past year.

If, at any time while exercising, you experience faintness, dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath, stop immediately.

Life Fitness conseille VIVEMENT de consulter un médecin pour suivre un examen médical complet avant de se lancer dans un programme d’exercice. Ceci concerne surtout les utilisateurs avec des antécédents familiaux de tension élevée ou d’affections cardiaques, les personnes de plus de 45 ans, les fumeurs et les obèses, ainsi que tous ceux qui ont un taux élevé de cholestérol ou qui n’ont pas fait d’exercice régulièrement depuis un an.

Si, à tout moment pendant l’exercice, l’utilisateur ressent un malaise, un étourdissement ou une douleur, ou s’il se trouve à bout de souffle, il doit s’arrêter immédiatement.
