HOW TO USE THE ELLI TICAL EXERCISER

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLI TICAL

EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, firmly hold the han-

dlebars or the T-handle and carefully 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

below; however, to give variety to your exercise,

you may choose to turn the pedal disks in the

opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, allow the pedals

to come to a complete stop. CAUTION: The elliptical

exerciser does not have a freewheel; the pedals

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 RESISTANCE OF THE

EDALS

As you exercise,

you can adjust

the resistance of

the pedals with

the resistance

knob on the

console. To

increase the

resistance,

turn the knob

clockwise; to

decrease the

resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.

DESCRI TION OF THE CONSOLE

The console is designed to help you get the most

from your workouts. As you exercise, you can watch

your progress around the LED track, while the

display provides continuous exercise feedback.

The six modes of the display are described below.

SPEED—This mode displays your current exercise

speed, in miles per hour.

TIME—This mode displays the length of time you

have exercised. Note: If you stop exercising, the time

mode will pause until you resume.

DIST.—This mode displays the total distance you

have completed, in miles.

LAPS—This mode displays the number of 1/4-mile

laps you have completed around the LED track.

CAL.—This mode displays the approximate number of

Calories you have burned.

SCAN—This mode displays the speed, time, distance,

laps, and calorie modes, for 5 seconds each, in a

repeating cycle.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Before the console can be operated, two 1,5V batter-

ies must be installed. If you have not installed batter-

ies, see assembly step 7 on page 8.

HOW TO O ERATE THE CONSOLE

If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of

the console, remove it.

1. To turn on the power, press the “on/reset” button or

simply begin exercising. When the power is turned

on, one LED indicator will light in the LED track,

and the entire display will appear for two seconds.

The console will then be ready for operation.

2. Select one of the six modes:

Scan mode—

When the power

is turned on, the

scan mode will

automatically be

selected. ne

mode indicator

will show that the

scan mode is selected, and a flashing mode indica-

tor will show which mode is currently displayed.

Note: If a different mode is selected, you can

select the scan mode again by repeatedly pressing

the mode button.

Speed, Time,

Distance, Laps, or

Calorie mode—To

select one of

these modes for

continuous dis-

play, press the

mode button repeatedly. The mode indicators will

show which mode is selected. (Make sure that the

scan mode is not selected.)

3. The LED track represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As

you exercise, the indicators around the track will

light one at a time until you have completed 1/4

mile. A new lap will then begin.

4. To reset the display, press the “on/reset” button.

5. To turn off the power, simply wait for about four

minutes. Note: The console has an “auto-off”

feature. If the pedals are not moved and the

console buttons are not pressed for four

minutes, the power will turn off automatically

in order to conserve the batteries.
