2.1 Preventive Maintenance Tips

Life Fitness products are backed by the engineering excellence and reliability of Life Fitness and are one of the most
rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today.
Note: Safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear.
Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are
subject to wear, as outlined below.
REMARQUE: pour conserver un matériel sûr, il convient de l'inspecter régulièrement afin de déceler tout signe d'usure
ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pièces défectueuses n'ont pas été réparées ou remplacées.
Portez une attention toute particulière aux pièces qui s'usent, comme indiqué ci-dessous.
The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the Life Fitness product operating at peak performance:
ƒ Locate the product in a cool, dry place.
Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces with an approved or compatible cleaner (see Life Fitness
ƒ

ƒ Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the finger to press the se-
lection buttons on the console.

ƒ
ƒ Check the operation of the stop button once a week.
Inspect and vacuum the area directly surrounding and under the unit regularly.

Life Fitness Approved Cleaners (United States Availability Only)
Two preferred cleaners have been approved by Life Fitness reliability experts: PureGreen 24 and Gym Wipes. Both
cleaners will safely and effectively remove dirt, grime and sweat from equipment. PureGreen 24 and the Antibacterial
Force formula of Gym Wipes are both disinfectants that are effective against MRSA and H1N1. PureGreen 24 is avail-
able in a spray which is convenient to use. Apply the spray to a microfiber cloth and wipe down the equipment. Use
PureGreen 24 on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes and at least 10 minutes for
fungus and viral control. Gym Wipes are large, durable pre-moistened wipes to use on the equipment before and after
workouts. Use Gym Wipes on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes.
Contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services to order these cleaners (800-351-3737 or email: customersupport@
lifefitness.com).

surfaces. Use a soft microfiber cloth only. Apply the cleaner to the yeah cloth before cleaning. DO NOT use ammonia
or acid based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT use paper towels. DO NOT apply cleaners directly to
