I PORTANT PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-

tions before using the elliptical crosstrainer.

1. Read all instructions in this manual before

using the elliptical crosstrainer.

2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure

that all users of the elliptical crosstrainer

are adequately informed of all precautions.

3. The elliptical crosstrainer is intended for

in-home use only. Do not use the elliptical

crosstrainer in any commercial, rental, or

institutional setting.

4. Place the elliptical crosstrainer on a level

surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the

floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical crosstrain-

er indoors, away from moisture and dust.

5. Inspect and tighten all parts regularly.

Replace any worn parts immediately.

6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away

from the elliptical crosstrainer at all times.

7. The elliptical crosstrainer should not be used

by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.

8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when

using the elliptical crosstrainer. Always wear

athletic shoes for foot protection.

9. Always hold the handlebar or the upper

body arms when mounting, dismounting, or

using the elliptical crosstrainer.

10. Keep your back straight when using the ellip-

tical crosstrainer. Do not arch your back.

11. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time

while exercising, stop immediately and

begin cooling down.

12. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors, including the user's move-

ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

readings. The pulse sensor is intended only

as an exercise aid in determining heart rate

trends in general.

13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals

to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-

tical crosstrainer does not have a free

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handgrip

pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the

lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push

the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous

motion. Note: The pedal disks can turn in either

direction. It is recommended that you turn the

pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow

below; however, to give variety to your exercise,

you may turn the pedal disks in the opposite

direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the

pedals come to a complete stop. The elliptical

crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-

als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.

When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest

pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

The motion of the

pedals is deter-

mined by their

position on the

spring arms.

There are five

different pedal

positions. To

adjust the pedals,

first loosen the

knob beneath

each pedal. Slide the pedals forward or backward to

the desired position, and then retighten the knobs.

Make sure that both pedals are in the same position.

INCLINE ADJUST ENT

To further adjust the intensity of your exercise, the

incline frame can be raised or lowered. To raise the

incline frame, position the spring arms side by side.

Lift the end of the incline frame until the crossbar is

on top of the incline bracket. ake sure that the

crossbar is resting securely on top of the incline

bracket. To lower the incline frame, lift the incline

frame slightly, push the incline bracket toward the

upright, and then lower the incline frame onto the sta-

bilizer.

HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY AR S

The upper body

arms are designed

to add upper-body

exercise to your

workouts. As you

exercise, push

and pull the upper

body arms in

order to work your

arms, back, and

shoulders. To

exercise only your

lower body, hold

the handgrip pulse

sensor as you

exercise.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers a selection of features

designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and

effective. When the manual mode of the console is

selected, the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer

can be changed with a touch of a button. As you exer-

cise, the console will provide continuous exercise

feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using

the handgrip pulse sensor. (For information about an

optional chest pulse sensor, refer to page 20.)

The console also offers four preset workout programs.

Each program automatically changes the resistance of

the elliptical crosstrainer and prompts you to increase

or decrease your pace as it guides you through an

effective workout.

In addition, the console features two heart rate work-

out programs that automatically change the resistance

of the elliptical crosstrainer and prompt you to vary

your pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart

rate as you exercise.

The console also features new iFIT.com interactive

technology. IFIT.com technology is like having a per-

sonal trainer right in your home. Using the included

audio cable, you can connect the elliptical crosstrainer

to your home stereo, portable stereo, or computer and

play special iFIT.com CD programs (CDs are available

separately). IFIT.com CD programs automatically con-

trol the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer and

prompt you to vary your pace as a personal trainer

coaches you through every step of your workout. High-

energy music provides added motivation. Each CD fea-

tures two programs designed by certified personal

trainers.

In addition, you can connect the elliptical crosstrainer

to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs

(videocassettes are available separately). Video pro-

grams offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD pro-

grams, but add the excitement of working out with a

class and an instructor.

With the elliptical crosstrainer connected to your com-

puter, you can also go to our new Web site at

www.iFIT.com and access audio programs and video

programs directly from the internet.

To purchase iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes, call

toll-free 1-800-735-0768.
