HOW TO USE THE ELLiPTiCAL

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER

iMPORTANT: if the elliptical has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before you plug in the power adapter, if
you do not do this, you may damage the console

displays or other electronic components.

Plug the power adapter
into the receptacle on
the frame of the ellipti-
cal. Then, plug the
power adapter into an
appropriate outlet that
is properly installed

in accordance with
all local codes and
ordinances.

HOW TO FOLD AND UNFOLD THE ELLiPTiCAL

When the elliptical is not in use, the frame can be
folded out of the way. Hold the handle and gently lift
the frame until the pivot arms fold and the frame locks
in a folded position.

tighten the adjustment knob.

Adjust the stride length on the other side of the ellipti-
cal in the same way. Make sure that both sides of
the elliptical are adjusted to the same stride length.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL

If the elliptical
rocks slightly on
your floor dur-
ing use, turn

one or both of
the leveling feet

beneath the rear
stabilizer until the

rocking motion is
eliminated.

Leveling Feet

If the frame of the
elliptical flexes

during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet under
the center of the frame until the flexing is eliminated.

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

CONSOLE DIAGRAM FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.

When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button. While you exercise, the console will display

continuous exercise feedback. You can also measure
your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor.

The console offers twenty onboard workouts--ten
calorie workouts and ten performance workouts. Each
workout automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals as it guides you through an effective workout.

The console also features an iFit Live mode that
enables the console to communicate with your wireless

network through an optional iFit Live module. With the
iFit Live mode, you can download personalized work-
outs, create your own workouts, track your workout
results, race against other runners, and access many
other features. To purchase an iFit Live module at
any time, go to www.iFit.com or call the telephone

number on the front cover of this manual.

You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite
music or audio books while you exercise.

To use the manual mode, see page 18. To use
an onboard workout, see page 20. To use an iFit
Live workout, see page 21. To use the sound sys=
tern, see page 22. To change console settings,
see page 22.

Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the display,

Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical, 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.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console does not display your heart rate when
you hold the handgrip heart rate monitor, or if the dis-
played heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see
step 5 on page 19.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted.

To adjust the reed
switch, you must
first remove the Top
Shield (20). Using
a flat screwdriver,

release the tabs on
the front and rear of

the Top Shield and
then remove the Top

Shield.

Next, locate the Reed Switch (69). Loosen, but do not
remove, the M4 x 16mm Screw (93).

Next, rotate the Large Pulley (74) until a Magnet (75)
is aligned with the Reed Switch (69). Slide the Reed
Switch slightly toward or away from the Magnet. Then,
retighten the M4 x 16mm Screw (93).

Rotate the Large Pulley (74) for a moment. Repeat

these actions until the console displays correct
feedback.

When the reed switch is correctly adjusted, reattach
the top shield.

24

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

if you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest
level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted.

Next, remove the M4 x 16mm Round Head Screws
(127) and the M4 x 42mm Screws (124) from the Right

and Left Shields (18, 19). Make sure to note which
size of Screw you remove from each hole. Then,
gently remove the Left Shield.

To adjust the drive belt, you must remove the top shield
and the left shield (see the instructions below).

Using a flat screwdriver, release the tabs on the front
and rear of the Top Shield (20), and then remove the
Top Shield.

EXERCISE GUiDELiNES

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 inten-
sity 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.

165 I55 145 140 130 125 115 _
145 138 130 125 I18 110 103 q,W_)

I25 120 115 110 I05 95 gO W

20 30 40 50 60 70 80

Burning Fat--To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
cise 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 stretch-
ing 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 min-
utes 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 stretch-
ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-
est 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.

EXERClSE 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. Remember, the key to success is to make
exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday

life.
