HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE OF THE

PEDALS

As you exercise,

you can adjust

the resistance of

the pedals with

the resistance

knob on the

right side of the

console. To

increase the

resistance,

turn the knob

clockwise; to

decrease the

resistance, turn

the knob counter-

clockwise. The

number in the

resistance win-

dow displays the

resistance level.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

The motion of

the elliptical

crosstrainer is

determined by

the position of

the pedals.

To adjust the

pedals, first

loosen the pedal

knobs beneath

the pedals. Slide

the pedals for-

ward or back-

ward to one of

the five posi-

tions, and then

retighten the

knobs. Make

sure that both pedals are in the same position.

HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS

The handlebars are

designed to add

upper-body exer-

cise to your work-

outs. As you exer-

cise, push and pull

the handlebars to

work your arms,

shoulders, and

back.

To exercise only your lower body, hold the console

handgrip as you exercise.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL

CROSSTRAINER

To mount the

elliptical cross-

trainer, hold the

console hand-

grip and step

onto the pedal

that is in the

lowest 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 direc-

tion. It is rec-

ommended that you move the pedal disks in the

direction shown by the arrow; however, for variety,

you may turn the pedal disks in the opposite direc-

tion.

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.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The easy-to-use console features seven modes that

provide instant exercise feedback during your work-

outs. The modes are described below.

Speed—This mode displays your pedalling speed.

Time—This mode displays the elapsed time. Note: If

you stop pedalling for ten seconds or longer, the time

mode will pause.

Distance—This mode displays the distance you have

pedalled.

Calories—This mode displays the approximate num-

ber of calories you have burned.

Fat Calories—This mode displays the approximate

number of fat calories you have burned (see FAT

BURNING on page 13).

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

calorie, and fat calorie modes, for a few seconds

each, in a repeating cycle.

Heart Rate—This mode shows your heart rate when

you use the heart rate sensor.

Note: The console can display speed and distance in

either miles or kilometers. To change the unit of mea-

surement, hold down the On/Reset button for a few

seconds. The mode indicators will show which unit of

measurement is selected. When the batteries are

replaced, it may be necessary to reselect the desired

unit of measurement.

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE

Make sure that there are batteries in the console (see

assembly steps 3 and 4 on page 6). If there is a thin

sheet of clear plastic on the console, remove it.

Follow the steps below to operate the console.

1. To turn on the power, press the On/Reset button or

simply begin pedalling. When the power is turned

on, the entire display will appear for two seconds.

The console will then be ready for operation.

2. Select one of the seven modes:

Scan mode—

When the power is

turned on, the

scan mode will

automatically be

selected. The scan

indicator will

appear in the dis-

play to show that

the scan mode is selected, and a second mode

indicator will show which mode is currently dis-

played. Note: If a different mode is selected, you

can select the scan mode again by repeatedly

pressing the Display Mode button.

Speed, time, dis-

tance, calories,

or fat calories

mode—To select

one of these

modes for continu-

ous display, press

the Display Mode

button repeatedly

until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time, Miles (or Kms),

Cals., or Fat Cals. indicator appears in the display.

Make sure that the Scan indicator does not appear.

To reset the display at any time, press the On/Reset

button.
