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 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 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
E
hen the elliptical exerciser is not in use, the frame
W
can be folded out of the way. First, lift the latch under
each pedal arm, and lift the pedal arms off the sleeves
on the crank arms.
Sleeve
Pedal Arm
Latch
Next, raise the pedal arms until the magnets on the
pedal arms touch the handlebars; the magnets will
hold the pedal arms in place. Then, hold the handle
and lift the frame until it locks in a vertical position.
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.

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
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 and the
incline of the ramp with the touch of a button. While
you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise feedback. You can also measure your heart rate
using the handgrip pulse sensor.
In addition, the console offers twenty preset workouts—six weight loss workouts and fourteen
performance workouts. Each workout automatically
changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you
to vary your pedaling pace as it guides you through an
effective workout.
The console features the iFit interactive workout system, which enables the console to accept iFit cards
containing workouts designed to help you achieve
specific fitness goals. For example, lose unwanted
pounds with the 8-week Weight Loss workout. iFit
workouts control the resistance of the pedals while the
voice of a personal trainer coaches you through your
workouts. iFit cards are available separately. To pur-
chase iFit cards, go to www.iFit.com or see the
front cover of this manual. iFit cards are also
available at select stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite
music or audio books while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see page 17. To use the manual mode, see page 17. To use a preset workout,
see page 19. To use an iFit workout, see page 20.
To use the sound system, see page 20. To change
console settings, see page 20.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the display,
remove the plastic.

repeatedly until the
name of the desired
workout appears in
the display.
The workout duration, the maximum speed, and a
profile of the resistance levels will also appear in
the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 20, 30 or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one
target speed is programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target
speed may be programmed for consecutive segments.
The resistance level for the first segment will
appear in the display and the target speed for the
first segment will flash in the display for a few seconds.
Profile
As you exercise,
keep your pedaling
speed near the tar-
et speed for the
g
current segment. At
he beginning of
t
each segment, the target speed for the segment
will flash in the display.
IMPORTANT: The target speed is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pedaling
speed may be slower than the target speed.
Make sure to pedal at a speed 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.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level programmed for
the next segment.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
stop counting. To restart the workout, simply
resume pedaling.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on pages 17 and 18.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 18.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
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 and/or target speed is programmed for
the next segment, the resistance level and/or target speed will appear in the display for a few
seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals
will then change.
See step 6 on page 18.
7. When you are finished exercising, unplug the
power cord.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: B
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 this
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.
23
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.
ove slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
M
. Toe Touch Stretch
1
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
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for
15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and
hip muscles.
