HOW TO USE THE CHEST HEART RATE MONITOR
OW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
H
The heart rate monitor has two components: a strap
and a sensor (see the drawing below). Insert the tab
on one end of the strap into one end of the sensor, as
shown in the inset drawing. Press the end of the sensor under the buckle on the strap. The tab should be
flush with the front of the sensor.

reas and put on the heart rate monitor; the heart
a
rate monitor shuts off when it is removed and the
electrode areas are dried. If the heart rate monitor is
not dried after each use, the battery may be drained
prematurely.
• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sunlight for extended periods of time or to temperatures
above 122° F (50° C) or below 14° F (-10° C).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor when
using or storing the heart rate monitor.
• Clean the sensor using a damp cloth—never use
alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. Hand wash and air
dry the heart rate monitor.
HEART RATE MONITOR TROUBLESHOOTING
Next, wrap the
heart rate monitor
around your chest
and attach the
other end of the
strap to the sensor. Adjust the
length of the
strap, if necessary. The heart
rate monitor should be under your clothes, tight
against your skin, and as high under the pectoral muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the
logo on the sensor is facing forward and is right-sideup.
Pull the sensor away from your body a few inches and
locate the two electrode areas on the inner side (the
electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges). Using
saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solution,
wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor to a position against your chest.
HEART RATE MONITOR CARE
• Dry the heart rate monitor after each use. The heart
rate monitor is activated when you wet the electrode
Logo
If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try the steps below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate monitor as described at the left. Note: If the heart rate
monitor does not function when positioned as
described, move it slightly lower or higher.
• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor. If heart rate readings do not appear until you
begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• Position yourself near the console. For the console
to display heart rate readings, the user must be
within armʼs length of the console.
• The heart rate monitor 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 heart rate monitor can be
affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If you suspect that this
is a problem, try relocating the strider.

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
OW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
H
H
OW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
east resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
l
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 appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. This product
is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit.
IMPORTANT: The elliptical is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets and may not be compatible
with AFCI-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.
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving
it requires two persons. Stand in front of the ellipti-
al, hold the upright, and place one foot against one of
c
the front wheels. Pull on the upright and have a second person lift the handle on the ramp until the
elliptical will roll on the front wheels. Carefully move
the elliptical to the desired location, and then lower it
to the floor.

A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle as
shown at the
right if a
properly
grounded
outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle out-
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a
qualified electrician to determine if the outlet box
cover is grounded before using an adapter.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the upper body arms or
he handlebars and step onto the pedal that is in the
t
lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push
he pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
t
motion. Note: The crank arms can turn in either
direction. It is recommended that you turn the
crank arms in the direction shown by the arrow;
however, for variety, you can turn the crank arms
in the opposite direction.
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 higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower
pedal.

level, and one target rpm (speed) are programmed
for each segment. Note: The same resistance
level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm may be
programmed for consecutive segments.
The resistance level, the ramp incline level, and
the target rpm for the first segment will appear in
the matrix.
During the
workout,
the profiles
on the
speed and
incline
tabs 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
speed or the incline level for the current segment.
Profile
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling speed near the target rpm for the
current segment. When an upward-pointing arrow
appears in the display, increase your pace. When
a downward-pointing arrow appears, decrease
your pace. When no arrow appears, maintain your
current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target rpm is intended only to
provide motivation. Your actual pedaling speed
may be slower than the target rpm. Make sure
to pedal at a speed that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level or incline level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can
manually override the setting by pressing the
Resistance buttons or the Quick Touch
Incline/Decline buttons. IMPORTANT: When the
current segment of the workout ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance
level programmed for the next segment and

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: B
or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons
over age 35 or persons with pre-existing
health problems.
The heart rate monitor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor 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.
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.
efore beginning this
urning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
B
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
he first few minutes of exercise does your body begin
t
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 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.
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.
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.
27
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then
relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and
back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended leg.
Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,
then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Hamstrings,
lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
tendons and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp
one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times
for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch

replacement parts shipped while the product is under warranty, the customer will be responsible for a minimal handling charge. For in-home service, the customer will be responsible for a minimal trip charge. This
warranty does not extend to any damage to a product caused by or attributable to freight damage, abuse,
misuse, improper or abnormal usage, or repairs not provided by an ICON authorized service center; to
products used for commercial or rental purposes or as store display models; or to products transported
or purchased outside the US. No other warranty beyond that specifically set forth above is authorized by
ICON.
ICON is not responsible or liable for indirect, special, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with the use or performance of the product; damages with respect to any economic loss, loss of
property, loss of revenues or profits, loss of enjoyment or use, or costs of removal or installation; or other
consequential damages of whatsoever nature. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, the above limitation may not apply to you.
The warranty extended hereunder is in lieu of any and all other warranties, and any implied warranties of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose are limited in their scope and duration to the terms set
forth herein. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts. Accordingly, the
above limitation may not apply to you.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights that vary from state to state.
