IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: T
tions before using the elliptical exerciser.
1. Read all instructions in this manual before
using the elliptical exerciser.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the elliptical exerciser are
adequately informed of all precautions.
3. The elliptical exerciser is intended for
in-home use only. Do not use the elliptical
exerciser in a commercial, rental, or institutional setting.
4. Place the elliptical exerciser on a level surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the
floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical exerciser
indoors, away from moisture and dust.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away
from the elliptical exerciser at all times.
7. The elliptical exerciser should not be used
by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.
o reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-
12. The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors, including the user's movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensors are intended
only as exercise aids in determining heart
rate trends in general.
13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a complete stop. The elliptical exerciser does not have a free wheel;
the pedals will continue to move until the
flywheel stops.
14. Always unplug the power cord immediately
after use and before cleaning the elliptical
exerciser.
15. The decal shown below has been placed on
the elliptical exerciser. If the decal is missing
or illegible, please call our Customer Service
Department toll-free at 1-888-825-2588 to
order a free replacement decal. Apply the
decal in the location shown.
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when
using the elliptical exerciser. Always wear
athletic shoes for foot protection.
9. Always hold the handlebars when mounting,
dismounting, or using the elliptical exerciser
10. Keep your back straight when using the elliptical exerciser; do not arch your back.
11. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
.

HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
To get the best performance from the chest pulse sensor, please read the instructions below.
HOW T
The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
the chest strap and the sensor unit. Follow the steps
below to put on the chest pulse sensor.
O PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
Chest Strap
Ta b
Sensor Unit
Refer to the inset drawing above. Insert the tab
1
on one end of the chest strap through one end of
the sensor unit as shown. Then, press the end of
the sensor unit under the buckle on the chest
strap.
Wrap the
2
chest pulse
sensor
around
your chest.
Attach the
free end of
the chest
strap to the sensor unit as described above.
Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary.
The chest pulse sensor should be under your
clothing, against your skin, and as high under the
pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable.
Make sure that the logo is facing forward and is
right-side-up.

two electrode areas on the inner side. Using a
saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the
sensor unit to a position against your chest.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, or if the displayed heart rate is excessively high
or low, try the steps below.
• Make sure that the chest pulse sensor is worn
exactly as described in step 2 at the left. If the chest
pulse sensor does not function when positioned as
described, move it slightly lower or higher on your
chest.
• Each time you use the chest pulse sensor, use
saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor
unit (see the drawing in step 3 at the left). If heart
rate readings do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• Make sure that you are within arm’s length of the
console. For the console to display heart rate
readings, the user must be within arm’s length of
the console.
• The chest pulse sensor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical conditions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be
affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
magnetic interference may be causing a problem,
try relocating your exercise equipment.
• If the chest pulse sensor still does not function properly, test the chest pulse sensor in the following way:
Pull the

Areas
Next, hold the chest pulse sensor near the console.
While holding one thumb stationary, begin tapping
the other thumb against the electrode area at a rate
of about one tap per second. Check the heart rate
reading on the console.
• If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly
after you have followed all of the above instructions,
the battery should be replaced in the following way:
Locate the battery
cover on the back of
the sensor unit. Insert
a coin into the slot in
the cover, turn the
cover counterclockwise, and remove the
cover.

CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE

use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the chest pulse sen
sor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off when
it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If
the chest pulse sensor is not dried after each use, it
may remain activated longer than necessary, draining the battery prematurely.
• Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
the chest pulse sensor to temperatures above 122°
Fahrenheit (50° Celsius) or below 14° Fahrenheit
(-10° Celsius).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.
• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
strap may be hand washed and air dried.
