e
Caution!
It is possible that oil could escape due to leakage of the hydraulic dampers. To avoid soiling of the floor or carpet, place the device on a level, non-slip un­derlay.
Prevent liquids from entering the computer. The sen­sitive electronics could get damaged. Protect the computer against direct sunlight.
Never use force when handling the device. Check regularly that all the screws, nuts and bolts
are tight. Self-locking nuts cannot come loose due to vibrations. This feature, however, can only be guar­anteed the first time the nuts are tightened.
If the stepper is ever disassembled, all the self-lok­king nuts must be replaced with new ones.
If you do not need to use the device for a longer pe­riod of time, remove the battery from the computer or else it could leak and cause damage.

8. Hook both elastic ropes into the eyelets othat are located in front of the pedal treads. Then tighten the screw connection on both rope hooks. Before every training session in which you want to use the elastic ropes, please make sure the screw connections on the rope hooks are always closed.
Attention!
The hooks on the stepper must not be subjected to loads crossways, since they have only been desi­gned to withstand tensile loads in an upwards direc­tion. The same applies to the hooks on the elastic ropes. Ignoring these instructions can lead to the hooks on the stepper breaking.
Attention!
If the elastic ropes are not being used whilst training with the stepper, they must definitely be unhooked and removed from the device. This is to avoid a risk of tripping.
9. Finally, check whether all nuts, bolts and screws
are tight. The device is ready for use.

Training instructions
Risks due to incorrect/ excessive training!
You should consult a doctor before beginning your training programme. Tell him/her what piece of trai­ning equipment you want to use, show him/her these instructions and allow a general fitness check to be performed. He/she can give you further helpful tips for your personal training programme.
A doctor‘s advice is absolutely necessary if you have not done any sport for a longer period of time, if you have problems with your heart, circulation, balance or breathing (asthma), if you have ortho paedic problems, if you are pregnant or if you are taking medication that affects your pulse rate, blood pressure or cholesterol level.
You must not train if you are feeling unwell or are suffering from other illnesses. Do not train directly af­ter meals, if you are tired or if there are other condi­tions that could be negatively affected by training.
During training pay attention to the signals provided by your body. Stop training if you notice the follo­wing symptoms: pains, headache, breathing difficul­ties, irregular heartbeat, extreme shortness of bre­ath, a feeling of being dazed, dizziness or nausea. Consult a doctor before continuing training.
Regular training strengthens your cardiovascular sy­stem and helps you achieve a greater sense of well­being.
Intense fitness training puts a strain on the whole body. You must therefore increase the strain slowly and make sure you give yourself enough breaks. Start by training within a range of performance in which you are not completely overexerting yourself. Start with 10 to 15 minutes a day. After a few weeks you can then extend your training. We recom­mend the following training frequency: 3 consecuti­ve days of training
1 day break 2 consecutive days of training 1 day break Give yourself enough time and make absolutely sure
you include a warm-up and recovery phase. Before starting training, it is advisable to warm up
your muscles with some stretching exercises. By do­ing so you will reduce the risk of injuries and increa­se the success of your endeavours. You will find the exercises on page 9.
You should start training slowly. 10 to 15 minutes per day with 2 days of breaks within a week (as li­sted above). If you are an advanced user, you can increase the training time and frequency according to your wishes. After every training session you should enter the cool-down phase. This means you should once more repeat the stretching exercises that you did before starting training. You can relieve your muscles by shaking out your arms and legs.
Please only perform the exercises shown and descri­bed in these instructions.

Risk of injury!
Before starting training, make sure you set up the stepper in a location that provides you with enough free space in which to train. An area measuring 2 x 2 m is required.
Wear comfortable clothes made from breathable fa­brics. Your clothing should be close-fitting so that it does not get caught in the moving parts of your stepper and so that it does not become a nuisance when you are training your arm muscles using the elastic ropes.
Wear sports shoes with a non-slip sole during trai­ning – do not train barefoot.
Make sure the soles of your feet are in full contact with the treads of the pedals to avoid injury. Do not stand too far back on the pedals and do not pull too vigorously on the elastic ropes. The device could tip over.
Make sure the room in which you are training is well aired but avoid draughts since they can quickly cau­se you to catch a cold.
Getting onto the stepper
Press one pedal right down with your foot so that the pedal arm and its stopper are resting on the base frame. Then place your foot onto the tread of the lo­wered pedal arm. Next, place the other foot onto the other pedal tread that is raised at an angle.
Movement of the stepper during training
Your stepper simulates stair climbing. Due to the swing effect, the pedal treads not only move up and down but also swing out to the left and right.
Worked-out muscle groups
Your leg and buttock muscles are trained primarily during the exercises without the elastic ropes.
Exercises involving stepping as well as pulling on the elastic ropes will strengthen your buttocks, legs, arms and shoulder muscles. Exercises in which you are not stepping but are using the elastic ropes will strengthen your arms and shoulder muscles.
Posture
You must make sure you maintain an upright posture during training. Make absolutely sure you avoid the formation of a hollow back. When stepping steadily and evenly, the stoppers of the pedal arms should not come into contact with the base frame. Therefo­re, just before touching down on one side, shift your weight from one leg to the other. It can also be help­ful if you allow your arms to swing at a slight angle in front of the upper part of your body in time with your step rhythm.
Step motion
With this stepper, the step motion is guided by the stepper.
Getting off
Whilst standing on the stepper, press one of the tre­ads right down so that the stopper of the pedal arm is resting on the base frame. Then lift your foot off the pedal tread that is raised at an angle and place it on the floor. Afterwards, take your foot off the pe­dal tread that is lowered.
Brake-resistance system
This stepper is a speed-dependent system.

Using the computer
You can use the device without the computer. The computer display can, however, help you train ef­fectively since it provides you with information about your training so far. The stepper is a device with a C precision classification. This means no de­mands can be made on the accuracy of the compu­ter‘s displays.
Switching on/off
• To switch on press the red MODE button.
The display will come on.
• If you do not use the device for 5 minutes, the
computer will switch off automatically.
Select display
During your workout the display will show the follo­wing on the first line: – STOP (as soon as you interrupt your workout) – The number of steps per minute (estimate) The second line shows various workout data (mo­des). To switch from one mode to the next, press the MODE button briefly.
1. TMR (lights up): duration of workout so far, 0:00
to 99:59
2. REPS: number of steps during current workout, 0
to 9999
3. CAL: calories consumed
1)
, 0 to 9999
4. TTR: number of steps since battery inserted, 0 to 9999
• If you would like to see all workout data in suc-
cession, press the MODE button repeatedly until the TMR field flashes. The display will then switch from mode to mode automatically every 5 se­conds.
1)
Calculations are based on pre-programmed stan­dard values which can only serve as a guide. Ca­lories consumed while using the resistance straps are not taken into consideration.
Specify training objectives
You can specify one or multiple targets: – Duration of workout (TMR) – Number of steps (REPS) – Calorie consumption (CAL)
1. Hold down the MODE button until 0:00 (TMR) appears on the second line of the display and the first 0 flashes (approx. 4 seconds).
2. To specify the length of the session, press the MODE button repeatedly until the desired time in minutes shows on the display.
3. Wait a few seconds until the display shows the next mode (REPS). Press the MODE button to set the number of steps in increments of 10.
4. In the next mode (CAL) you can set the desired number of calories to be consumed in increments of 10.
5. Start your workout. The display counts down the preset values to zero.
6. When the set target is reached the computer stops counting for approx. 10 seconds. The com­puter then starts again at zero.
Resetting the display
The display is set to zero only before your first trai­ning session. With all subsequent training units, the computer continues counting from the point at which your last training session ended.
- 8 -
• To reset the counter to zero2), press and hold down the red MODE button until all the symbols appear in the display simultaneously (approx. 3 seconds).
2)
The total number of training steps (repetitions) (TTR) is maintained. This number is only reset to zero when the battery is replaced.
Stretching exercises
Danger!
Serious injuries can result from overstretching mus­cles and tendons.
Before stretching, you should perform a 5 to 10-mi­nute warm-up, e.g. jogging on the spot or skipping with a skipping rope. When performing the stret­ching exercises, please make sure: – you perform each exercise slowly. – you only stretch until you feel a slight pull. Then
remain in this position for 20 seconds.
Stretching your hip extensor and thigh flexor muscles
Position your feet so that they are parallel and shoulder-width apart. With your legs straight, bend the upper part of your body over until your hands almost touch the ground. Remain in this position.
Stretching your calf muscles
Stand facing the wall with your feet straight. One leg is slightly bent the other straight. Bend your arms slightly and move your pelvis forwards a little. Repe­at the exercise with the other leg.
Stretching your thigh muscles
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and with the your toes turned slightly outwards. Slowly go as far as possible into a squatting position and bob up and down gently.
Stretching the insides of your thighs
Lie down on your back in a comfortable position. Bend your legs by bringing your knees up and keeping your feet on the floor. With your legs in this position, spread them sideways. The soles of your feet should be tou­ching one another. Slowly lower both knees.

Exercise without the elastic ropes
Exercises with the elastic ropes
Exercise:
for thighs, calves and buttocks
1. Move your arms backwards and forwards very
naturally whilst stepping – as if you were walking or climbing stairs.
2. Gradually raise your arms slightly higher.
The correct length
Danger!
The elastic rope can be stretched to a maximum length of 185 cm. Exceeding this length can dama­ge it and injure the user.
The longer you pull the elastic rope the more you must exert yourself.
The strap material is made from natural substances which, during the manufacturing process, are sub­ject to natural fluctuations. Because of this, in indivi­dual cases irregular measurement results can occur, however, they do not impair the safety of the pro­duct.
Length in cm Effort in N
(10 N

The right grip
Make sure you always keep the handles hori-
zontal when pulling the elastic ropes. Other­wise, lateral loadings could occur on the hooks for the pull cables.
Wrists
Do not bend your wrists since this could strain
them.
