THESE GUIDELINES ARE 
DIRECTED TO YOU, AS THE 
OWNER OF THE MACHINE. 
YOU SHOULD INSIST THAT 
ALL USERS FOLLOW THE 
SAME GUIDELINES.
SAFE OPERATION
General Guidelines For Safe Operation 
1.  Obtain a complete physical examination from your medical doctor and enlist a 
health/fi tness professional’s aid in developing an exercise program suitable for 
your current health status.
2.  When working out for the fi rst time, use the MANUAL exercise program at 
lower levels of resistance until you feel comfortable and capable of higher 
workloads.
3.  The intensity and duration of your exercise program should always be subject 
to how you feel.  Never permit peer pressure to override your personal 
judgment while exercising.
4.  Overweight or severely unconditioned individuals should be particularly 
cautious when using the machine for the fi rst time.  Even though such 
individuals may not have histories of serious physical problems, they may 
perceive the exercise to be far less intense than it really is, resulting in the 
possibility of overexertion or injury.
5.  Although all equipment manufactured by Nautilus
®
 has been thoroughly 
inspected by the manufacturing facility prior to shipment, proper installation 
and regular maintenance are required to ensure safety. 
Installation and Placement
Your Nautilus
®
 elliptical trainer should be located on a fl at surface allowing room 
to safely enter and exit the machine. The foot pedals of the machine, while in use, 
will extend rearward past the foot print of the machine. Take this into account 
before placing machine. The machine rests upon six leveler feet. If the fl oor is 
not even, adjust these leveler feet up or down so that machine sits fi rmly in place. 
This machine must be plugged into a 110 V, grounded (3-prong) outlet (North 
American model) or 220 V grounded outlet (CE mark model) . Use of extension 
cords or power strips is not recommended. 
Moving Your Machine
This machine is very heavy and awkward and requires two people to safely move 
from one location to another. To move, have two people lift up the back end of the 
machine until the transport wheels are in contact with the ground. The machine 
can now be rolled on the transport wheels. Note: The transport wheels are 
intended for indoor use only and should never be rolled on concrete or asphalt 
surfaces.
