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 select the manual mode of the
console, 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 measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
The console offers six preset programs. Each program
automatically changes the resistance of the pedals
and prompts you to increase or decrease your pedaling speed as it guides you through an effective workout.
In addition, the console features two heart rate programs that change the resistance of the pedals to
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings
while you exercise.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the consoleʼs sound system and listen to your
favorite workout music or audio books while you exercise.
To use the manual mode, see page 15. To use a
preset program, see page 17. To use a heart rate
program, see page 18. To use the sound system,

segments of the program. If you have selected
heart rate program 2, press the increase and
decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Programs
button to enter the desired maximum target heart
rate setting for the program (see EXERCISE
INTENSITY on page 21).
4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continuously during heart rate programs; however, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor
frequently for the programs to operate properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,
keep your hands on the metal contacts for at
least 30 seconds.
During both programs, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current segment of the program. 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
setting will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.
While you exercise, you will be prompted to maintain a constant pedaling speed. If an upward-pointing arrow appears in the display (see the drawing
above), increase your speed. If a downward-pointing arrow appears, decrease your speed. When no
arrow appears, maintain your current speed.
If the resistance setting for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the OneTouch Resistance 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.
18
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the program will pause. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The
rogram will continue until the last segment of the
p
program ends.
6. Follow your progress with the display.
During heart rate program 1, the display will
show your heart rate, your pedaling speed, and
the distance that you have pedaled. During heart
rate program 2, the display will show the program
profile, your pedaling speed, and the distance that
you have pedaled.
To view the time remaining in the program instead
of your heart rate or the program profile, press the
Display button.
To view the approximate number of calories that
you are burning per hour and the approximate
number of calories that you have burned during
your workout, press the Display button again.
To view your heart rate or the program profile
again, press the Display button again.
HOW TO USE THE SOUND SYSTEM
To play music or audio
ooks through the con-
b
soleʼs sound system while
ou exercise, first locate
y
the audio cable in the center of the console above
the speakers. Plug the
cable into a jack on your MP3 player or CD player;
make sure that the audio cable is fully plugged in.
Next, press the play button on your MP3 player or CD
player. Adjust the volume of the speakers using the
volume control on your MP3 player or CD player.
When not in use, insert the audio cable into the storage bracket on the console.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser
egularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
r
To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and
a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid
amage to the console, keep liquids away from
d
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 16.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER OR
ELIMINATE FLEXING IN THE FRAME
If the elliptical exerciser rocks on your floor during use,
turn one or both of the Leveling Feet (98) until the
rocking motion is eliminated.

If the elliptical exerciser flexes in the center during
use, turn the Center Foot (95) until the flexing is eliminated.
HOW TO ELIMINATE RUBBING OF THE DISCS
Adjust the position of the Side Shields (14, 15) until the
iscs (12) no longer rub against them, and then tighten
D
the Bolt Sets (88) and the M4 x 16mm Screws (97).
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
If the pedals slip
while you are
pedaling, even
while the resistance is adjusted
to the highest setting, the belt may
need to be adjusted. To adjust the
belt, first carefully
pry off the left
Disc Cover (13)
using a flat screwdriver. Next, remove the four Screws
(not shown) from the center of the left Disc (12).
Gently rotate the Disc Cover and the Disc away from
the elliptical exerciser.
Loosen, but do
not remove, the
three 1/4" x
19mm Button
Screws (114).
Insert the shaft of
a screwdriver
downward
between the
Idler (47) and the
Idler Pulley (48).
Pull the top of the
screwdriver
toward the rear of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt
(96) is tight, and then tighten the three Button Screws.
Reattach the left disc with the four screws and then
reattach the left disc cover.

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
re-existing health problems.
p
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.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
ise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
c
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
o use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to
t
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.
21
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
