Keep the elliptical exerciser indoors, away
4.
from moisture and dust. Place the elliptical
exerciser on a level surface, with a mat
beneath it to protect the floor or carpet.
Make sure that there is enough clearance
around the elliptical exerciser to mount, dismount, and use it.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the elliptical exerciser at all times.
7. The elliptical exerciser should not be used

9. Always hold the handles on the console or
the handlebars while mounting, dismounting,
or using the elliptical exerciser.
10. Keep your back straight while using the elliptical exerciser; do not arch your back.
11. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's movement, 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.
12. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising, stop immediately and cool down.
13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a stop.
14. The warning decal shown on page 4 has
been applied to the elliptical exerciser. If the
decal is missing, or if it is not legible, call
toll-free telephone number on the front

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handles on
he console or the handlebars and step onto the pedal
t
that is in the lowest position. Then, step onto the other
pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a
continuous motion. Note: The pedal disks can turn
in either direction. It is recommended that you
move the pedal disks in the direction shown by the
arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the pedal
disks 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 highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
The handlebars are designed to add upper-body exercise to your workouts. As you exercise, push and pull
the handlebars to work your arms, shoulders, and
back.

Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries
(see assembly step 3 on page 6). If there is a
sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console,
peel off the plastic.
To turn on the console, press the increase button
or begin pedaling.

As you pedal,
change the resistance of the pedals by pressing
the increase or

There are ten
resistance levels. The selected resistance level
will be shown in the upper display. Note: After a
button is pressed, it will take a moment for the
pedals to reach the selected resistance level.
Follow your progress with the displays.

As you exercise,
the lower left display can show
the elapsed time
and the distance
(total number of
revolutions) that you have pedaled.
The lower right
display can show
your pedaling

and the approximate number of calories you have burned. When
you use the handgrip pulse sensor, the lower

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and
a small amount of mild dish soap. Important: Keep
liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight. During storage, remove
the batteries from the console.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console display becomes dim, the batteries
should be replaced. See assembly step 3 on page 6
for replacement instructions.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed
switch, you must first remove the Right Pedal Leg
(12), the right Pedal Disc (15), and the Side Shields
(3, 4). See step 8 on page 8 and remove the Right
Pedal Leg.

Next, remove the four Screws (51, 70) from the right
Pedal Disc (15), and slide the Pedal Disc off. Remove
all Screws (52, 64) from the Right Side Shield (4) and
the two Bolts (41) from beneath the Pedal Disc, and
remove the Right Side Shield (4). Remove all Screws
(52) from the Left Side Shield (3), and move the Left
Side Shield.

Next, see the drawing below and locate the Reed
Switch (53). Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated
4 x 16mm Self-tapping Screw (52). Slide the Reed
M
Switch slightly toward or away from the Magnet (58) on
the flywheel. Retighten the Screw. Turn the left Pedal
Disc (15) for a moment. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the Side Shields (3, 4), the
right Pedal Disc (15), and the Right Pedal Leg (12).

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest
level, the Drive Belt (19) may need to be adjusted. To
adjust the Drive Belt, you must first remove both side
shields. See HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
at the left and remove the side shields.
Next, loosen
the M8 x

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

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, including the user's movement, 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.
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that 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, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone as you exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above
your age. The three numbers are your “training zone.”
The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates
for fat burning; the highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

program, do not keep your heart rate in your training
zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help to prevent post-exercise problems.

between workouts.

if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
