FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
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 speed as it guides you through an effective
workout.
In addition, the console features two heart rate pro-
grams that change the resistance of the pedals to
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings
while you exercise.
The console also features the new iFIT Interactive
Workout System. The iFIT Interactive Workout System
is compatible with iFIT Cards containing workout pro-
grams designed to help you achieve specific fitness
goals. For example, lose unwanted pounds with the 8-
week Weight Loss program, iFIT programs control the
resistance of the pedals while the voice of a personal
trainer coaches you and motivates you through your
workouts. One demo iFIT Card is included. Additional
iFtT Cards are available separately. To purchase iFIT
Cards, go to www.iFIT.com or call the toll-free tele-
phone number on the front cover of this manual.
iFIT Cards are also available at select stores.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 15. To use a preset
program, see page 17. To use a heart rate program,
see page 18. To use an iFIT program, see page 19.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
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 9 on page
9 for replacement instructions.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-
ly, see step 5 on page 16.
HOW TO ELIMINATE RUBBING OF THE DISCS
If the Discs (12) rub against the Side Shields (14, 15)
during use, make sure that the Center Foot (40) is
attached to the Frame (1). If the Center Foot is
attached, loosen the two indicated Bolt Sets (88) and
the two #8 x 1/2" Screws (81) in each side of the ellip-
tical exerciser.
88
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the
belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the belt, first
see assembly step 12 on page 10 and remove the left
pedal arm and the left link arm.
Then, remove the
four screws (not
shown) from the
center of the left
Disc (12). Next,
carefully pry off
the left Disc
Cover (13) using
a flat screwdriver.
Gently rotate the
Disc Cover and
the Disc away
from the elliptical exerciser.
Loosen, but do
not remove, the
three indicated
screws (A). Insert
the shaft of a
screwdriver
downward
between the
Idler (47) and the
Idler Pulley (48).
Pull the top of the
screwdriver
toward the front
of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt (74) is tight.
Then, tighten the three screws.
81
Adjust the position of the Side Shields (14, 15) until
the Discs (12) no longer rub against them, and then
tighten the Bolt Sets (88) and the #8 x 1/2" Screws
(81).
40
Reattach the left disc with the four screws and then
reattach the left disc cover. Next, see assembly step
12 on page 10 and reattach the left pedal arm and the
left link arm.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
_WARNING:
Before beginning th is or any exercise pro-
gram, consult your physician. This is espe-
cially important for persons over the age of 35
or persons with pre-existing health problems.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. 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 num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
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 determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition
and adequate rest are essential for successful results.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goat is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
165 155 145 140 130 125 115 (_
145 138 130 125 118 110 103 C,_)
125 120 115 110 105 95 90
20 30 40 50 60 70 80
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be "aerobic." Aerobic exer-
cise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone as you exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-
ration for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer-
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above
your age. The three numbers are your "training zone."
The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates
for fat burning; the highest number is the recommend-
ed heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help 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 exer-
cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week
if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.
Move slowly as you stretch--never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees
and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat
3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp
one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your
buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for
15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and
hip muscles.
