HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be

grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. Important: The elliptical exerciser is not compatible with GFCI- equipped outlets.

DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in an increased 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 qual- ified electrician.

available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet 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. Some 2-pole receptacle out- let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali- fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is grounded before using an adapter.

ciser, hold the

center handle-

 

 

bar and step

 

 

onto the pedal

 

 

that is in the

 

 

lowest posi-

 

 

tion. Then,

 

 

step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The crank arms (inside of the side shields) can be turned in either direction. It is recommended that you turn the crank arms in the same direction that you pedal a bicycle; however, for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped- als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops.

When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
