HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be grounded. If it should mal-

unction or break down, grounding provides a path of

f least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the power cord into an appro-

priate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. This product is for use on a nominal 120volt circuit. IMPORTANT: The elliptical exerciser is not compatible with GFCI-equipped outlets.

DANGER: Improper connection

of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in an increased risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product—if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

HOW TO FOLD AND UNFOLD THE ELLIPTICAL

XERCISER

1. Press any button on the console or begin edaling to turn on the console.

hen you turn on the console, the display will

W light. A tone will then sound and the console will be ready for use.

2. Select a heart rate workout.

To select one of the heart rate workouts, press the Heart Rate Workouts button once or twice. When you select a custom workout, the name of the workout will appear in the display for a few seconds.

3. Enter a target heart rate.

A few seconds after you select a heart rate workout, the words ENTER MAX TARGET HEART RATE FOR THIS WORKOUT will appear in the display and the number 110 will begin to flash.

During heart rate workout 1, the same target heart rate will be programmed for all segments of the workout. If you have selected heart rate workout 1, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Heart Rate Workouts button to enter the desired target heart rate (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 23).

During heart rate workout 2, different target heart rates will be programmed for different segments of the workout. If you have selected heart rate workout 2, press the increase and decrease buttons below the Heart Rate Workouts button to enter the desired maximum target heart rate for the workout (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page

23).

4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continuously during heart rate workouts; however, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently for the workouts to operate properly.

Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds.

5. Begin pedaling to start the workout.

Heart rate workout 1 is divided into 40 one-

inute segments. Note: For a shorter workout,

m stop exercising or select a different workout before

he workout ends.

Heart rate workout 2 is divided into 30 oneminute segments. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate may be programmed for consecutive segments.

During the workout, the workout profile in the display will show your progress. The flashing segment of the profile represents the current segment of the workout. The height of the flashing segment indicates the target heart rate for the current segment. At the end of each segment of the workout, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash.

Profile

If the resistance level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Quick Resistance buttons.

owever, when the console compares your heart

H rate to the target heart rate, the resistance of the

edals may automatically increase or decrease to

p bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

6. Follow your progress with the display.

During heart rate workout 1, the display will

show a graphic that represents a detected heartbeat, the elapsed time, and the distance that you have pedaled. During heart rate workout 2, the display will show the workout profile, the time remaining in the workout, and the distance that you have pedaled.

During both workouts, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate for the current segment of the workout. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate. Each time the resistance changes, the resistance level will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you.

While you exercise, you will be prompted to maintain a constant pedaling pace. When an upward-pointing arrow or the prompt SPEED UP appears next to the pace information in the display, increase your pace. When a downward-pointing arrow or the prompt SLOW DOWN appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow or prompt appears, maintain your current pace.

To view the time remaining in the workout and the distance pedaled, press the Display button. Press the Display button again to view the time remaining and the approximate number of calories burned.

To view the first display again, press the Display button again.

7. Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 6 on page 15.

8. When you are finished exercising, the console

will turn off automatically.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser

egularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid

amage to the console, keep liquids away from

d the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER OR ELIMINATE FLEXING IN THE FRAME

If the elliptical exerciser rocks on your floor during use, turn one or both of the Leveling Feet (98) until the rocking motion is eliminated.

14, 15

116

Adjust the position of the Shields (14, 15) until the

iscs (12) no longer rub against them, and then tight-

D en the Bolt Sets (88) and the M4 x 16mm Screws (116).

ANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 15.

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 carefully pry off the left Disc Cover (13) using a flat screwdriver. Next, remove the four screws (not shown) from the center of the left Disc (12). Gently rotate the Disc Cover and the Disc away from the elliptical exerciser.

If the elliptical exerciser flexes in the center during use, turn the Center Foot (95) until the flexing is eliminated.

HOW TO ELIMINATE RUBBING OF THE DISCS

See the drawing above. If the Discs (12) rub against the Shields (14, 15) during use, make sure that the Center Foot (95) is installed in the Frame (1). If the Center Foot is installed, loosen the two indicated Bolt Sets (88) and the two M4 x 16mm Screws (116) in each side of the elliptical exerciser.

Loosen, but do not remove, the three 1/4" x 19mm Button Screws (114). Insert the shaft of a screwdriver downward between the pulley (A) and the Idler Pulley (48). Pull the top of the screwdriver toward the rear of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt (96) is tight, and then tighten the three Button Screws.

Reattach the left disc with the four screws and then reattach the left disc cover.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning

this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with

re-existing health problems.

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 determining heart rate trends in general.

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.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-

ise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of

c 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

o use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to

t 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.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity 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.

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

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

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 minutes 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 stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps 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 exercise, 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.
