WARNING: Potentially hazardous situation to be

avoided that could result in serious injury or death.

 Consult with your physician before beginning any exercise

program. This is particularly true if you have any of the

following: history of heart disease, high blood pressure,

diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, elevated cholesterol, if

you smoke cigarettes, or have any other chronic disease or

physical impairment.

 If you experience dizziness, chest pains, nausea or any other

abnormal symptoms while using the treadmill stop immediately.

Consult a physician before continuing.

CAUTION: Potentially hazardous situation to be avoided

that may result in minor or moderate injury.

 Consult a qualified electrician before using any extension cords.

Long extension cords cause a voltage drop to the machine,

which may cause it to operate improperly

 ALWAYS USE THE EMERGENCY SAFETY LANYARD

SUPPLIED WITH THE ALTERG! It should be fully attached to

the user’s clothing. This is very important for your safety in case

you fall during your workout.

 The AlterG treadmill belt operates like any other conventional

treadmill belt. If the patient’s Base of Support (BOS) is outside

of their Center of Gravity (COG), the belt can slide slowly

forward or backward. This can be alleviated easily by instructing

the user to properly position their BOS. Care should be taken

when entering, exiting, and standing in the cockpit.

 Read and understand all instructions before using the AlterG.

 Read about, understand and test the emergency stop feature.

 Never leave children unsupervised around the AlterG.

 Inspect the AlterG for worn or loose components prior to use.

Tighten/replace any worn or loose components or bolts prior to

use.

 Pregnant women or women who may be pregnant should

consult their physician before using the AlterG.

 The AlterG must be used under the supervision of a properly

trained operator. At no time should a user of the machine

exercise without appropriate supervision; even if having been

previously trained in the proper operation of the device.

 Set up and operate the AlterG on a solid, level surface.

 Keep all loose clothing and towels away from the treadmill

running surface. DO NOT store anything (like shorts) inside the

bag.

 Prior to beginning a workout, check to make sure there is no

debris inside the AlterG.
