1 SETUP
Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer.
Where to Place the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer
Follow all safety instructions and move the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer to the location in which it will be used. See Section
7 for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow 2 feet (0.6 meters) of clearance around the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer to allow
for movement of the pedal levers. It should be easy to mount the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer from the side.
How to Stabilize the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer
After placing the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it. Any slight rocking
indicates that the unit must be leveled. Check the stabilizing feet to determine which foot does not rest fully on the floor.
Rotate the foot counter-clockwise to lower it. Recheck the stability and adjust again as needed until the Life Fitness
Cross-Trainer is stable and no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment into position by tightening the jam nut against the
stabilizer bar with an open end 9/16 inch wrench.
Plug In the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer (DOMESTIC UNITS ONLY)
The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer comes with a standard power supply. Insert
the power adapter jack into the barrel plug on the back of the Life Fitness
Cross-Trainer. Then insert the power supply into the wall outlet. Make
sure the cord is routed so that it doesn’t bind and will not be walked on.
Check that the console LEDs light up. If not, recheck the plug and wall
connections and make sure the wall outlet has power.
Note: International units are self-powered only. Use only the power supply
provided by Life Fitness in order to insure against unsafe operation.
Service Access Port
The two interchangeable type RJ45 networking ports (A) are located on the back of the
display console. These network ports, located behind the display console rear access
door, allow for console software updates.

2.2 Console Overlay Descriptions
A. WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of intensity in a workout-in-progress. The height of the first column on the left side of the window is proportional to the current level of intensity.
During a FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, or EXTREME HEART RATE workout,
which requires the use of a Polar® telemetry heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse™ system sensors, the
Workout Profile window displays a flashing heart shape to request the user’s heart rate signal. If the console does not detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt “NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON
SENSORS OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP”. If the console does not receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automatically is converted to a MANUAL program.
B. MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a workout, it displays statistics about the progress of the workout:
• Level: programmed intensity level. Toggles with Heart Rate.
• Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grasping the Lifepulse system sensors.
• Distance: the total distance traveled in miles (or kilometers if enabled).
• Speed: the pedaling speed or rate in miles per hour (or kilometers per hour if enabled).
• Calories: the number of calories burned since beginning the workout. Toggles with Time.
• Time: time elapsed since the start of the workout. Toggles with Calories.
If configured to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER displays any or all of these three values each time the intensity
level changes during the workout:
• Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.
• Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work.
• METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a metabolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest.
NOTE: The Watts display and the Calories per Hour display cannot be turned on at the same time. See
Section 5 for information about enabling the MESSAGE CENTER to display these additional settings.
C. ARROW keys: Use the UP and DOWN Arrow keys to change workout parameters displayed on the console, such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate, and intensity level. Pressing these keys during
a FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, or EXTREME HEART RATE workout increases
or decreases the target heart rate.
D. CLEAR key: Press this key, when programming a workout, to clear incorrect data, such as weight or age, before pressing the ENTER key. Pressing CLEAR during a workout stops it immediately, at which point, the MESSAGE
CENTER displays a summary of the workout, including total time elapsed, total distance traveled, and total calories burned. Pressing CLEAR a second time causes the MESSAGE CENTER to prompt the user for a
new workout setup.
E. DISPLAY LOCK: During a workout, the MESSAGE CENTER alternately displays the number of CALORIES
BURNED and the amount of TIME ELAPSED. Pressing the DISPLAY LOCK key when the MESSAGE CENTER displays either statistic, forces the MESSAGE CENTER to display that statistic continuously throughout the workout. Pressing DISPLAY LOCK again allows the MESSAGE CENTER to resume toggling between both statistics.
F. WORKOUT PROFILES keys: Press this key to select workout options:
