same configuration as
the plug. No adapter
should be used
with this product.
Suspension Elliptical
Trainers can be daisy­chained together with
up to 4 units per 15
A dedicated circuit.

Ascent Trainers can
be daisy-chained together with up to 3 units per dedicated 15 A
circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord adapters are sold separately.

220 V UNITS

All Matrix 3x, 5x and 7xe 220 V Suspension Elliptical™ Trainers
and Ascent Trainers® require the use of a 216-250 V, 50 Hz
and a 15 A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped (isolated)
neutral/ground for power. This outlet should be a NEMA 6-15R
and have the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should
be used with this product. Suspension Elliptical™ Trainers can
be daisy-chained together with up to 4 units per 15 A dedicated
circuit. Ascent Trainers® can be daisy-chained together with up
to 3 units per dedicated 15 A circuit. Matrix daisy-chain cord
adapters are sold separately.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

The unit must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break­down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The unit is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with

all local codes and ordinances. If the user does not follow these
grounding instructions, the user could void the Matrix limited
warranty.

ADDITIONAL E LECTRICAL INFO

In addition to the dedicated circuit requirement, the proper
gauge wire must be used from the circuit breaker box, to each
outlet that will have the maximum number of units running off
of it. If the distance from the circuit breaker box to each outlet,
is 100 ft (30.5 m) or less, then 12 gauge wire should be used.
For distances greater than 100 ft (30.5 m) from the circuit
breaker box to the outlet, a 10 gauge wire should be used.

ENE RGY SAVI NG / LOW-POWER MODE

All units are configured with the ability to enter into an energy
saving / low-power mode when the unit has not been in use
for a specified period of time. Additional time may be required
to fully reactivate this unit once it has entered the low-power
mode. This energy saving feature may be enabled or disabled
from within the ‘Manager Mode’ or ‘Engineering Mode.’

ADD-ON PCTV (3X AND 5X)

A 15 A or 20 A “Dedicated Circuit” with a non-looped
(isolated) neutral/ground is required. Each PCTV requires at
least 1.2 A of current. No more than 12 PCTVs should be used
for each 15 A circuit and no more than 16 PCTVs should be
used for each 20 A circuit. No adapter should be used with this
product. A coaxial cable from the video source to the unit will
be needed for each PCTV unit.

ADD-ON DIG ITAL TV (3X AN D 5X)

Additional power requirements are not needed for the add-on
digital TV.

DEDICATED CIRCUIT AND E LECTRICAL INFO

A “Dedicated Circuit” means that each outlet you plug into should not have anything else running on that same circuit. The easiest
way to verify this is to locate the main circuit breaker box, and turn off the breaker(s) one at a time. Once a breaker has been turned
off, the only thing that should not have power to it are the units in question. No lamps, vending machines, fans, sound systems, or
any other item should lose power when you perform this test.

Non-looped (isolated) neutral/grounding means that each circuit must have an individual neutral/ground connection coming from it,
and terminating at an approved earth ground. You cannot “jumper” a single neutral/ground from one circuit to the next.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

For your safety and to ensure good unit performance, the ground on this circuit must be non-looped (isolated). Please refer to NEC
article 210-21 and 210-23. Any alterations to the standard power cord provided could void all warranties of this product.

These products are designed to be self powered and do not require an external power supply source to operate. An external power
supply source will power the console at all times.

For units with an integrated TV (7xe), the TV power requirements are included in the the unit. For units with an add-on digital TV (3x
and 5x), the machine in which the add-on digital TV is connected to powers the add-on digital TV. Additional power requirements
are not needed for the add-on digital TV. For units with an add-on PCTV (3x and 5x), the TV power requirements are separate.

NOTE: ALL UNITS WITH VIRTUAL ACTIVE™ MUST BE P OWERED!

110 V UNITS

All Matrix 3x, 5x and 7xe 110 V Suspension Elliptical Trainers and Ascent Trainers require the use of a 100-125 V, 60 Hz and a 15
A “Dedicated Circuit”, with a non-looped (isolated) neutral/ground for power. This outlet should be a NE MA 5-15R and have the

It is essential that your unit is used only indoors, in a climate controlled room. If your unit has been exposed to colder

USING THE HEAR T RATE FUNCTION

The unit is equipped with heart rate pulse grips.

The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips can provide a relative estimation of
your actual heart rate, they should not be relied on when accurate readings are necessary. Some people, including those in
a cardiac rehab program, may benefit from using an alternate heart rate monitoring system like a chest or wrist strap. Various
factors, including movement of the user, may affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended
only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. Please consult your physician.

PULSE GRIPS

Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to register. It
takes 5 consecutive heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping the pulse handlebars, do not grip
tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may experience an erratic readout
if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars. Make sure to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.

FOOT POSITIONING

Your unit offers a variety of foot positions. Moving your foot to the forward most position of the foot pad increases your step height,
which will create a feel similar to a step machine. Placing your foot toward the back of the foot pad decreases your step height and
creates more of a gliding feel, similar to a smooth walk or run. Always make sure your entire foot is secured on the foot pad.

Your unit also allows you to pedal both forward and backwards to offer a variation to your workout and to focus on other major leg
muscle groups such as your hamstrings and calves.

POWER INCLINE OPERATION

The Ascent Trainers offer powered incline to add variety to your workouts. The incline can be adjusted using the buttons on
the console.

If the stop button is pressed to pause the program, the incline motor will remain at its current height. To return the incline to 0%,
press GO and change the incline to 0% before dismounting. If the STOP button is held for 3 seconds to reset the console, the
incline will also return to 0%.

WIRELESS HE ART RATE RECEIVER

When used in conjunction with a wireless chest transmitter, your heart rate can be transmitted wirelessly to the unit and
displayed on the console.

Prior to wearing the wireless chest transmitter on your chest, moisten the two rubber electrodes with water. Center the chest
strap just below the breast or pectoral muscles, directly over your sternum, with the logo facing out. NOTE: The chest strap
must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned
improperly, you may receive an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout.
