HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, 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 discs can turn in either

direction. It is recommended that you move the pedal discs in the direction shown by the arrow below; however, for variety, you can turn the pedal discs in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical

exerciser does not have a free wheel; 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 USE THE HANDLEBARS

The handlebars are designed to add upper-body exercise to your workouts. 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.

HOW TO ADJUST THE STRIDE OF THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To adjust the stride of the elliptical exerciser, first pull one of the adjustment knobs until the adjustment bracket can be pivoted freely. Then, pivot the adjustment bracket until the adjustment knob is aligned with either of the two holes in the crank arm, and gently release the knob.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more effective. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the resistance of the pedals can be changed with the touch of a button. As you pedal, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip pulse sensor.

In addition, the console features two pulse programs that change the resistance of the pedals and help you to maintain a steady pedaling pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate setting while you exercise.

The console also offers four preset programs. Each program automatically changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective workout.

To use the manual mode of the console, see the instructions at the right. To use a pulse program, see page 13. To use a preset program, see page 14.

Before using the console, make sure that batteries are installed (see assembly step 5 on page 7). If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the display, remove the plastic.

HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

Turn on the console.

To turn on the console, press the Increase button or begin pedaling. The pace guide will light for a moment; the console will then be ready for use.

Select the manual mode.

When the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. If you have selected a program, reselect the manual mode by pressing the Program button repeatedly until no program indicators (see the drawing above) appear along the left side of the display.

Change the resistance of the pedals as desired.

As you pedal, change the resistance of the pedals by pressing the Increase and Decrease buttons. There are ten resistance levels. Note: After you press the buttons, it will take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected resistance level.

Monitor your progress with the display.

The upper half of the display will show the elapsed time, the distance (total revolutions) you have pedaled, and the resistance level of the pedals. The display will change from one mode to the next every few seconds. Note: When a program is selected (except for pulse program 2), the display will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time.

The lower half of the display will show your pedaling speed (revolutions per minute [RPM]) and the approximate number of calories you have burned. The display will change from one mode to the other every few seconds. The lower half of the display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5).

Measure your heart rate if desired.

If there are sheets of clear plastic on the metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the plastic. Next, hold the

handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting on the contacts. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the lower half of the display will flash each time your heart beats, and your heart rate will be shown.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the handgrip pulse sensor for about 30 seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the handgrip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate for about 30 seconds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other modes.

If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Avoid moving your hands excessively or squeezing the metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, periodically clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemi-

cals.

Turn on the fan if desired.

To turn on the fan at low speed, press the fan button. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the fan button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the fan button a third time. Note: If the fan is turned on but the pedals are not moved for thirty seconds, the fan will automatically turn off to conserve the batteries.

Rotate the thumb tab on the right side of the fan to adjust the angle of the fan.

When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.

If the pedals are not moved for a few seconds, the time will begin to flash and the console will pause. If the pedals are not moved for a few minutes, the console will turn off and the display will be reset.

HOW TO USE A PULSE PROGRAM

Pulse program 1 is designed to keep your heart rate within a set range during your workout. Pulse program 2 is designed to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate setting that you select.

Follow the steps below to use a pulse program.

Turn on the console.

See step 1 on page 11.

Select a pulse program.

To select pulse program 1 or 2, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 1 or 2 appears along the left side of the display.

Enter a target heart rate.

If pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum

target heart rate setting for the program will flash in the display (see the drawing above). Press the Increase and Decrease buttons to change the setting, if desired (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 16). If the maximum target heart rate setting is increased or decreased, the intensity level of the entire program will increase or decrease.

If pulse program 2 is selected, the target heart rate setting for the entire program will flash in the display. Press the Increase and Decrease buttons to change the setting, if desired (see EXERCISE

INTENSITY on page 16).

Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continuously during a pulse program; however, you must hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse

sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When you

are not holding the handgrip pulse sensor, the letters PLS will appear in the display instead of your heart rate.

Begin pedaling to start the program.

Pulse program 1 is 30 minutes long, and is divid-

ed into several time periods of different lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for each period. Pulse program 2 is sixty minutes long (you may choose to use only part of the program). The same target heart rate is programmed for the entire program.

During the program, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too low, you can override it by pressing the Increase and Decrease buttons. However, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance may automatically change.

After the first minute of the program, the pace guide will help you to maintain a steady pedaling pace. When one of the two lower indicators lights, increase your pace; when one of the two upper indicators lights, decrease your pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.

Important: The pace guide is intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

The display will show the time remaining in pulse program 1, or the elapsed time in pulse program

2. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the program will pause and the time will flash in the display. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

Monitor your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 12.

Page 14

Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 6 on page 12.

When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.

See step 7 on page 12.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM

Preset programs 3, 4, 5, and 6 automatically change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace as they guide you through effective workouts. The profiles printed on the left side of the display show how the resistance level and the target pace will change during the preset programs.

Follow the steps below to use a preset program.

Turn on the console.

See step 1 on page 11.

Select a preset program.

To select preset program 3, 4, 5, or 6, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 3, 4, 5, or 6 appears along the left side of the display. When a preset program is selected, the display will show how long the program will last.

Begin pedaling to start the program.

Each preset program consists of several time periods of different lengths. One resistance level and one target pace are programmed for each period.

At the end of each period of the program, the resistance level will flash in the display for a few

seconds. The resistance of the pedals will then automatically change to the resistance level that is programmed for the next period. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too low, you can override it by pressing the Increase and Decrease buttons. However, when the current period ends, the resistance level will automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next period.

During the program, the pace guide will prompt you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace. When one of the two lower indicators lights, increase your pace; when one of the two upper indicators lights, decrease your pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.

Important: The pace guide is intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

The display will show the time remaining in the program. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the program will pause and the time will flash in the display. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

Monitor your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 12.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

See step 5 on page 12.

Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 6 on page 12.

When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.

See step 7 on page 12.

Page 15

Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid

damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If the console displays become dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on page 7 for replacement instructions.

HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

• Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart rate readings.

• Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate readings.

• For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the metal contacts for about 30 seconds.

• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alcohol,

abrasives, or chemicals.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Page 16

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses

carbohydrate calories

for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored

fat calories

for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning

this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

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 determining heart rate trends in general.
