ASSEMBLY

Assembly requires two persons. Place all parts of the elliptical crosstrainer in a cleared area and remove the

packing materials. Do not dispose of the packing materials until assembly is completed. In addition to the

included allen wrenches, assembly requires a phillips screwdriver , an adjustable

wrench , and a rubber mallet .

As you assemble the elliptical crosstrainer, use the drawings below to identify the small parts used in assembly.

The number in parenthesis below each drawing refers to the key number of the part, from the PART LIST on

page 22. The second number refers to the quantity used in assembly. Note: Some small parts may have been

pre-assembled for shipping. If a part is not in the parts bag, check to see if it has been pre-assembled.

6. Identify the Left Handlebar (9), which is marked with a

sticker. Insert the Left Handlebar into one of the

Handlebar Legs (79); make sure that the Handlebar

Leg is turned so the hexagonal holes are on the

indicated side. Attach the Left Handlebar to the

Handlebar Leg with two M8 x 45mm Button Bolts (91)

and two M8 Nylon Locknuts (46). Make sure that the

Nylon Locknuts are inside of the hexagonal holes.

INSTALLING THE RECEIVER FOR THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

If you purchase the optional chest pulse sensor (refer to page 20), follow the steps below to install the receiver

and the short jumper wire included with the chest pulse sensor.

1. Remove the four indicated screws from the back of the

Console (5). Lift off the front of the Console.

2. Plug the short jumper wire (A) into the indicated jack on

the Console (5). Connect the other end of the short

jumper wire to the wire on the receiver (B). Note: The

included long jumper wire is not needed.

Next, peel the paper off the adhesive pad on the back

of the receiver (B). Orient the receiver as shown, and

press it onto the Console (5) in the indicated location.

Refer to step 1 above. Reattach the front of the

Console (5) with the four screws. Make sure that no

wires are pinched.

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

The motion of the

pedals is deter-

mined by their

position on the

flex bars. Their

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.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL

CROSSTRAINER

To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handgrip

pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the low-

est position. Then, 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 move the

pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow

below; however, for variety, you may turn the pedal

disks in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the

pedals come to a complete stop. Note: 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 USE THE HANDLEBARS

The handlebars are

designed to add

upper-body exer-

cise to your work-

outs. Push and pull

the handlebars as

you exercise to

work your arms,

shoulders, and

back.

To exercise only

your lower body,

hold the handgrip

pulse sensor as

you exercise.

CAUTION:Before using the ellipti-

cal crosstrainer, read the following precau-

tions.

• Always hold the handgrip pulse sensor or the

handlebars when mounting, dismounting, or

using the elliptical crosstrainer.

• When you stop exercising, allow the pedals to

slowly come to a stop.

• The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors may affect the accuracy of

heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is

intended only as an exercise aid in determin-

ing heart rate trends in general.

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 adjusted 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 built-in handgrip pulse sensor. (For information

about an optional chest pulse sensor, refer to page 20.)

The console also offers four Smart 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 a stereo audio

cable (available at electronics stores), you can connect

the elliptical crosstrainer to your home stereo, portable

stereo, or computer and play special iFIT.com CD pro-

grams (CD’s are available separately). IFIT.com CD

programs automatically control 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 features 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.

For information about the availability of iFIT.com

CD’s or videocassettes, send an e-mail to

ellipticalworkouts@iFIT.com, and we’ll notify you

as soon as iFIT.com CD’s and videocassettes are

available. Or, call toll-free 1-800-884-0620.
