CAUTION: Before using the EFX®, read all these instructions. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.

Do not allow people unfamiliar with its operation or children, on or near the unit.

Consult with your physician and receive a thorough physical examination. Know your physician-recommended heart rate target zone.

 Always face the display and use the stationary handrail for balance. Never attempt to turn around on the EFX.

 If you feel pain, faintness, or

dizziness, stop exercising immediately.

Begin Your Workout with QUICKSTART

1.	Turn ON the EFX, using the I/O power switch at the
	base of the rear cover. The Precor banner scrolls
	across the center display.
2.	Remove the locking pin that secures the roller arm.
3.	Hold on to the stationary handrail and step on the
	foot pedals.
4.	Begin pedaling.
	Important: If your unit has moveable handlebars,
	do not use them until you are comfortable with the
	movement of the EFX.

The Locking Pin on the Roller Arm

The locking pin on the EFX ramp secures the roller arm and prevents it from continuous travel up or down the ramp. To prevent unauthorized use, secure the roller arm with the locking pin after every workout.

Pull firmly on the pin to slide

it out of the roller arm. A lanyard attaches the locking pin to the ramp. Store the locking pin underneath the ramp once it

is removed from the roller arm.

Workout Tips

Before and after a workout, gently stretch your lower body and back to help prevent stiffness or soreness.

At the beginning of a workout, take several minutes to bring your heart rate into your target zone (shown in Diagram D on the other side of this card).

Depending on your level of fitness, consider maintaining a pedaling speed between 100 and 150 strides per minute. Do not drop below 20 strides per minute during a workout or you enter pause mode.

To pause during your workout, stop pedaling. Pause mode has a 10-minute limit.

Incorporate a cool-down period into your workout to help lower your heart rate and minimize muscle stiffness or soreness.
