Safety Precautions

Your safety is paramount when using your ProForm Hybrid Trainer. Always prioritize safety by carefully following the guidelines outlined in this manual and adhering to common-sense precautions. Before each workout, ensure that your Hybrid Trainer is properly assembled and functioning correctly. Inspect all parts, including the pedals, handlebars, and console, for any signs of wear or damage.

Always wear appropriate workout attire, including comfortable and supportive shoes, and avoid loose clothing that could get caught in the moving parts. Proper hydration is crucial during exercise; keep a water bottle within easy reach to stay hydrated. If you have any pre-existing health conditions, consult your doctor before starting a new exercise program.

Avoid using the Hybrid Trainer in a dimly lit environment, and be aware of your surroundings to prevent accidents.

Using the Hybrid Trainer

To switch between modes, simply adjust the seat height and pedal position according to the instructions provided in your user manual.
