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. As you exercise, the console will display
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.
The console also offers four target toning workouts
designed to work specific areas of the body. The console guides you through each workout with a variety of
exercise instructions while automatically changing the
resistance of the pedals.
In addition, there are four calorie goal workouts
designed to help you burn 300 or 400 calories in 25-,
30-, or 45-minute workouts. The calorie goal workouts
automatically control the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to vary your pace while counting the calories you burn.
There are also four preset workouts that automatically
change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pace while guiding you through an effective
workout.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the consoleʼs sound system and listen to your
favorite workout music or audio books while you exercise.

i
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
resistance level by pressing the Resistance
increase or decrease button. However, when the
current segment ends, the resistance of the pedals
will automatically adjust to the resistance level programmed for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To
restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The
workout will continue until the last segment of the
workout ends.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into either 30 or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one
target pace setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or target pace setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flashing segment of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the resistance level 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. If a different resistance level is programmed for the next
segment, the resistance level will appear in the
display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then change.
During the workout, the workout target pacer will
prompt you to keep your pedaling pace near the
target pace setting for the current segment. When

HOW TO USE THE SOUND SYSTEM
To play music or audio books through the consoleʼs
sound system while you exercise, plug an audio cable
(not included) into the jack on the console and into a
jack on your MP3 player or CD player; make sure
that the audio cable is fully plugged in.
Next, press the play button on your MP3 player or CD
player. Adjust the volume level using the volume control on your MP3 player or CD player.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the elliptical
exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immedi-
tely. The elliptical exerciser can be cleaned with a
a
soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives
or solvents to clean the exerciser. To prevent damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.
When storing the elliptical exerciser, remove the batteries from the console. Keep the elliptical exerciser in
a clean, dry location, away from moisture and dust.
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance of the pedals is at the highest setting, the belt may need to be adjusted. First,
remove all of the screws from both shields; there are
two sizes of screws in the shields—note which
size of screw you remove from each hole.
Next, tighten the M10 x 45mm Button Bolt (68) until
the Belt (22) is tight. Once the Belt is tight, tighten the
Hex Bolt. Then, reattach the shields. Note: If you have
questions regarding which screw should be in which
hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 23 and
the PART LIST on page 21.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
f the console does not display correct feedback, the
I
reed switch should be adjusted. First, remove all of
the screws from both shields; there are two sizes of
screws in the shields—note which size of screw
you remove from each hole.
Next, locate the Reed Switch (63). Turn the Flywheel
(28) until the Magnet (35) is aligned with the Reed
Switch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M4 x
12mm Self-tapping Screw (93). Slide the Reed Switch
slightly closer to or away from the Magnet, and then
retighten the Screw. Rock the Flywheel forward and
back just enough that the Magnet passes the Reed
Switch repeatedly. Repeat until the console displays
correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly
adjusted, reattach the shields. Note: If you have questions regarding which screw should be in which hole,
see EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 23 and the
PART LIST on page 21.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console does not function properly, the batteries
should be replaced. To replace the batteries, see
assembly step 5 on page 8.
Note: If you use the sound system regularly, it is recommended that you purchase an optional manufacturer-supplied AC adapter (see assembly step 5 on page
8).
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 15.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: B
this or any exercise program, consult your
physician. This is especially important for
persons over the age of 35 or persons with
pre-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.
efore beginning
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.
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.
