HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet
beneath the base or beneath the front stabilizer until
the rocking motion is eliminated. If the elliptical exerciser flexes during use, turn the leveling foot beneath
the center of the frame.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lower position.
Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous 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 below; however, for
variety, you can turn the crank arms in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: 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 higher
pedal first. Then, step off the lower pedal.

Each preset workout is divided into 20, 30, or 45
one-minute segments. One resistance level and
one target rpm (pace) setting are programmed for
each segment. Note: The same resistance and/or
target rpm setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The small
arrow below the workout profile indicates the current segment of the workout. The height of the
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 small
arrow will move to the next segment of the profile.
If a different resistance level and/or target rpm is
programmed for the next segment, the resistance
level and/or target rpm will flash in the display for
a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the
pedals will then change.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling pace near the target rpm setting for
the current segment. When the words PEDAL
FASTER appear in the display, increase your
pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear,
decrease your pace. When no words appear,

A moment after you begin pedaling, the display will
light.
2.
Select the workout menu.
To select the workout menu, press the Intensity
Control Workouts button. The workout menu will
then appear in the display.
3. Select a heart rate workout.
To select one of the four hear rate workouts, first
press the left and right Navigation buttons to highlight the HEART RATE WORKOUTS option, and
then press the Enter button.
Then, press the left and right or the up and down
Navigation buttons until the name of the desired
heart rate workout appears in the display. Note: To
return to a previous menu, press the Back button.
To return to the manual mode, press the Intensity
Control Workouts button.
4. Enter a target heart rate setting.
A few seconds after you select a heart rate workout, the words SELECT TARGET HEART RATE
and the number 110 will will appear in the display.
Press the up and down Navigation buttons to enter
the desired target heart rate setting, and then
press the Enter button.
The workout time and a profile of the resistance
levels for the workout will then appear in the display.
5. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each heart rate workout is divided into 20 or 30
one-minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The
same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The small
arrow below the workout profile indicates the current segment of the workout. The height of the
segment indicates the target heart rate setting for
the current segment. At the end of each segment
of the workout, a series of tones will sound and
the small arrow will move to the next segment of
the profile.
20
During a heart rate workout, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart
rate setting for the current segment of the workout.
If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals
will automatically increase or decrease to bring
your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Each time the resistance changes, the resistance level will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you.
You will also be prompted to pedal at a steady
pace so you can maintain your target heart rate.
When the words PEDAL FASTER appear in the
display, increase your pace. When the words
PEDAL SLOWER appear, decrease your pace.
When no words appear, maintain your current
pace.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to 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 setting by pressing the
Resistance buttons. Note: If you manually override
the resistance settings, you may not maintain your
target heart rate.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level for the next segment.
The workout will continue in this way until the
small arrow reaches the right end of the profile. To
stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A tone
will sound and the time will begin to flash in the
display. To restart the workout, simply resume pedaling.
6. 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 15 seconds.
7. Follow your progress with the display.
When you use a heart rate workout, the display
can show the time remaining in the workout, the
distance you have pedaled, the resistance level,
the approximate number of calories you have
burned, and your pedaling pace in revolutions per
minute (rpm). Press the Display button repeatedly
to select the desired display option.
8. Measure your heart rate if desired.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
24
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.
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.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise 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.
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.
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
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.
