Each time you turn on the console, the manual mode will be selected. If you have selected a pro­gram, reselect the manual mode by pressing any of the program buttons repeatedly until a track appears in the center of the screen.
3. Change the resistance of the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped­als by pressing any of the OneTouch Resistance buttons numbered 1 through 12. Note: After you press the buttons, it will take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected resistance level.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
As you exercise, the screen can display the fol­lowing exercise information:
• The elapsed time. Note: When you select a
preset program or the second heart rate pro­gram, the screen will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time.
• The distance you have pedaled, in total revolu-
tions.
• Your pedaling pace in revolutions per minute (rpm).
• The approximate number of calories you have burned.
• The resistance level of the pedals each time the resistance changes.
• Your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5 on page 16).
When you select the manual mode, a track represent­ing 1/4 mile will appear on the screen. As you exercise, seg­ments will appear in succession around the track until the entire track appears. The track will then disappear and the segments will again begin to appear in succes­sion
When the television is off, you can press the Display button repeatedly to view either time and pace information or to view all exercise informa­tion on the screen.
When the television is on, you can display exer­cise information on the right side or the bottom of the screen. Or, you can turn off the exercise infor­mation while you watch the television. Press the Display button repeatedly to select the desired display mode.
16
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets of clear plastic on the metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the plas­tic. To measure
your heart rate, hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands or
gripping the contacts too tightly.
When your pulse is detected, your heart rate will appear on the screen. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand­grip pulse sensor, the screen will show your heart rate for up to 30 seconds.
If the screen does not show your heart rate, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives,
or chemicals to clean the contacts.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a tone will sound and the console will pause. The time will also flash in the display. If the pedals do not move for several minutes and the buttons are not pressed, the console will turn off and the dis­play will be reset. Note: If the console does not turn off after several minutes, the console is in the “demo” mode. See HOW TO USE THE INFORMATION MODE on page 22 and turn off the demo mode.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a button, the screen will light.
2. Select a preset program.
To select one of the 20 preset programs, press the Aerobic Performance button, the Aerobic Fitness button, or the Weight Loss button repeat­edly until the desired program appears on the screen.
When a pre­set program is selected, a diagram of the resistance settings for the program will appear on the screen. The arrow below the diagram will indicate your progress during the program. In addition, the screen will show the total program time, the maximum pace setting for the program, and the maximum resistance setting for the program.
3. Press the Start button or begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one­minute segments. One resistance level and one target pace setting are programmed for each seg­ment. Note: The same resistance and/or target pace setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. The resistance level for the current segment will be indicated by the height of the dia­gram above the arrow.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg­ment of the program, a series of tones will sound. If the resistance is about to change, the resis­tance level will appear on the screen to alert you. When the first segment ends, the arrow below the diagram will move one position to the right.
The pedals will then automatically adjust to the resistance level for the second segment.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your pedaling pace near the target pace setting for the current segment. When the color of the RPM display on the screen is white or blue, increase your pace. When the RPM display is yel­low or pink, decrease your pace. When the RPM display is green, maintain your current pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intend­ed only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace set­ting. Make sure to exercise 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 OneTouch Resistance but­tons. However, when the current segment of the program ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance level for the next segment.
The program will continue in this way until the arrow reaches the right end of the diagram. To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will flash in the dis­play to indicate that the program is paused. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on page 15.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 16.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.

target heart rate setting is programmed for all segments of this program.
Second heart rate program—This program is divided into 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.
The target heart rate setting for the first segment will be indicated by the height of the program dia­gram. When the first segment ends, the arrow below the diagram will move one position to the right.
The program will continue in this way until the arrow reaches the right end of the program dia­gram. To stop the program at any time, stop ped­aling. A tone will sound and the time will flash in the display to indicate that the program is paused. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
19
Both heart rate programs—As you pedal, the
console 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.
You will also be prompted to pedal at a steady pace. When the color of the RPM display on the screen is white or blue, increase your pace. When the RPM display is yellow or pink, decrease your pace. When the RPM display is green, maintain your current pace. Important:
Make sure to exercise at a pace that is com­fortable for you.
Note: You can manually override the resistance level setting; however, if you change the resis­tance level, you might not maintain the target heart rate. Also, 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.

TELEVISION TROUBLESHOOTING
You can solve most television problems by following the steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and follow the steps listed. If you need further assistance, please see the front cover of this manual.
PROBLEM:
Television reception is poor.
SOLUTION:
a. Check for the problems listed below and follow the
applicable instructions.
• Ignition (black spots or horizontal streaks that appear or a picture that flutters or drifts)— Usually this is caused by interference from auto­mobile ignition systems, neon lamps, electric drifts, or other electric appliances. Try changing the position of the elliptical exerciser or other electric appliances to correct the problem.
• Ghosts—Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths—one is the direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills, or other objects.
• Blue Screen—If the elliptical exerciser is located in the fringe area of a television station where the signal is weak, the picture may be of poor quality or a blue screen may appear.
Note: If one of these symptoms appears when the cable from a cable company is connected, the symptom may be caused by the local company sig­nal reception.
PROBLEM:
No display appears in the CONSOLE mode and no picture appears in the TV mode.
SOLUTION:
a. Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a
properly grounded outlet. Also make sure that the power cord is securely connected to the jack on the front of the elliptical exerciser.
PROBLEM:
The display appears in the CONSOLE mode, but no picture appears in the TV mode.
SOLUTION:
a. Check the following coaxial cable connections:
• make sure that the coaxial cable is properly con­nected to a CATV cable (see page 12).
• make sure that the coaxial cable is connected to the terminal on the front of the elliptical exerciser.
• Make sure that the coaxial cable is connected to the console (see step 14 on page 11).
PROBLEM:
There is no sound or picture when a DVD player or VCR is connected to the personal television.
SOLUTION:
a. If the DVD player or VCR is connected with a CATV
cable, make sure that the TUNER mode is selected on the console. If the DVD player or VCR is con­nected with an RCA component video cable, make sure that the AV1 mode is selected on the console.
b. Make sure that the CATV cable or the RCA compo-
nent video cable is connected to the correct audio/video output terminal or jacks on the DVD player or VCR. Refer to your DVD player or VCR owner’s manual for detailed connection instructions.

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.
26
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
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.
