WARNING! Before beginning any exercise program consult your physician or health care professional. Only he or she can determine the exercise program that is appropriate for your particular age and condition. If you experience any lightheadedness, dizziness, or shortness of breath while exercising, stop the exercise and consult your physician. For Your Safety Please Follow These Instructions • It is your responsibility to read and understand all warnings and instructions contained in the Owner's Manual. This is essential to safe operation. • Keep your body weight centered on the machine or bench while exercising. • Never allow children on the machine. Teenagers should always have parental supervision when using this machine. • Before exercising, make sure the spring lock seat pin is securely fastened and the bench is firmly in place. • Inspect your machine before each workout. Periodically check all fasteners to make sure none have loosened with use. Tighten if necessary. • Never attempt to exercise with more resistance than you are physically able to handle. The following safety instructions apply only to Nautilus machines using weight stack resistance mechanisms: • Be certain that the weight pins are completely inserted prior to exercising. • Make sure the weight stack or top plate is never pinned in an elevated position. Do not use the machine if it is found in this position. Call your repair facility or consult your assembly guides if this occurs. • Inspect all cables, belts or chains and their connections prior to use. Do not use the machine if any component is found worn or damaged. • Never use dumbbells or any other means to incrementally increase the machine's weight resistance, other than those means provided by Nautilus. • For safety, it is recommended that you exercise with a training partner or spotter.
