FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even monitor your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
The console also offers a selection of preset programs.
The two calorie goal programs allow you to choose a
calorie-burning goal for your workout. As you exercise,
the console will count the calories that you burn until
the goal is reached.
The two pulse control programs automatically control
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
increase or decrease your pedaling pace to keep your
heart rate near a target heart rate setting during your
workout.
The distance program counts the number of revolutions that you pedal during your workout, until you
have completed 5,000 revolutions.
The three resistance & rpm programs automatically
change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pedaling pace as they guide you through an
effective workout.
The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer in your home. Using a stereo audio cable
(available at electronics stores), you can connect the
elliptical exerciser to your portable stereo, home stereo,
computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and
video programs (iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are
available separately). iFIT.com programs automatically
control the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches you
through every step of your workout. High-energy music
provides added motivation.

shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different program before the program ends.
During both pulse control programs, the con
sole will regularly compare your heart rate to the
target heart rate setting. 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.

Important: The target heart rate settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your
actual heart rate may be slower than the target heart rate settings. Make sure to exercise
at a pace that is comfortable for you.
Note: During the program, you can manually override the resistance setting for the current segment, if desired, by pressing the increase and
decrease buttons. However, when the console
compares your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting, the resistance of the pedals may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone
will sound and the program will pause. To restart
the program, simply resume pedaling.

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 soap. Important: To avoid
damage to the console, keep liquids away from
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console displays become dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 7 on page
8 for replacement instructions.
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 rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip
•
pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere
with heart rate readings.
• Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so
may interfere with heart rate readings.
• For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the
metal contacts for about 30 seconds.
• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts
can be cleaned with a soft cloth—
hol, abrasives, or chemicals.
HOW TO ELIMINATE FLEXING IN THE CENTER OF
THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exerciser flexes in the center during
use, turn the base foot (see the drawing at the left)
until the flexing is eliminated.

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.
one. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
z
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.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
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, maximum fat burning, and aerobic exercise.
o find the proper intensity level, first find your age at
T
the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years).
your age define your “training zone.”
ber is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle num
ber is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the
highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your

Then, stop exercising
and place two fingers on
your wrist as shown.
Take a six-second
heartbeat count, and
multiply the result by 10 to find your heart rate. For
example, if your six-second heartbeat count is 14,
your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. Note: If your
exercise equipment includes a pulse sensor, you can
use the pulse sensor to measure your heart rate.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warm-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.
Cool-down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and
will help 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.
