HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

Stand in front of the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars firmly, and place one foot against one of the wheels. Pull the handlebars until the elliptical exerciser can be moved on the wheels, and carefully move the elliptical exerciser to the desired location. Then, place one foot against a wheel, and lower the elliptical exerciser. Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exerciser, use extreme caution while moving and lowering it.

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handgrip pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion.

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

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it before using the console.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and effective. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the resistance of the elliptical exerciser can be changed with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.

The console also offers eight preset programs. Each program automatically changes the resistance of the elliptical exerciser and prompts you to increase or decrease your pace as it guides you through an effective workout.

In addition, the console features two heart rate programs that automatically change the resistance of the elliptical exerciser and prompt you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate while you exercise.

The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-

sonal trainer in your home. Using the included stereo audio cable, you can connect the elliptical exerciser to your portable stereo, home stereo, computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are available separately). iFIT.com programs automatically control the resistance of the elliptical exerciser and prompt you to vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches you through every step of your workout. High-energy music provides added motivation. To purchase iFIT.com

CDs and videocassettes, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual.

With the elliptical exerciser connected to your computer, you can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com and access programs directly from the internet.

Explore www.iFIT.com for more information.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 9. To use a preset program, see page 11. To use a heart rate program, see page 12. To use an iFIT.com CD or video program, see page 17. To use an iFIT.com program directly from our Web site, see page 18.
