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 the lower levels
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 de-conditioned 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,
Inc. has been thoroughly inspected by the
manufacturing facility prior to shipment, proper
installation and regular maintenance are
required to ensure safety. Maintenance is the sole
responsibility of the owner.
