OTHER SAFETY TIPS FOR YOUR VISION FITNESS SUSPENSION ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
CAUTION! If you experience chest pains, nausea, dizziness or shortness
of breath, stop exercising immediately and consult your physician before
continuing.
•
Do not wear loose clothing that might catch on any part of the
Suspension Elliptical™ Trainer.
• Read this Owner’s Guide before operating this Suspension Elliptical™
Trainer.
CLEANING
• Clean only with mild soap and a slightly damp cloth; never use solvents.
SAFETY MODE
Your S70 is equipped with a Safety Mode that keeps your S70 in its
highest resistance level while not in use to help prevent the pedals from
being moved. By default this mode is disabled, but it can be enabled in
the Engineering menu (see Page 26).
SELF-POWERED FEATURE
The S70 is a self-powered unit, requiring no external power source. When
a user pedals at a speed above 25 revolutions per minute (RPM), the
power is generated to allow the unit to function properly. If “Battery Low”
displays on your console, you should plug the S70 into the wall for 6 – 12
hours to recharge the battery fully. Be sure to turn the power switch to the
“On” position to charge the battery or to use plug-in feature.

PLACEMENT IN YOUR HOME
Please follow the safety instructions to place the Suspension Elliptical™ Trainer
in the location where it will best be used. It is important that you place your
Suspension Elliptical™ Trainer in a comfortable and inviting room. Avoid
putting your Suspension Elliptical™ Trainer in an unfinished basement or
undesirable setting. Exercise adherence will be easier to achieve only if you
exercise in an attractive setting.
STABILIZING THE
SUSPENSION ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
After positioning the Suspension
Elliptical™ Trainer in its intended
location, check the unit’s stability.
Rocking or wobbling indicates
that your Suspension Elliptical™
Trainer needs to be leveled.
Determine which leveler is not
resting completely on the floor.
Loosen the nut at the base of
the leveler to allow the leveler to
rotate. Now rotate the leveler to
the left or right until the Suspension
Elliptical™ Trainer is stable. Lock
the adjustment by tightening the nut
against the support tube.

CONTACT HEART RATE
Resistance
I N T RO
HAND PULSE HEART RATE SENSORS
The Contact Hand Pulse Sensors
are included on each product
to monitor your heart rate. To
use, grasp both of the sensors
with a comfortable grip during
your workout. The console will
display your heart rate. It may
take the system a few seconds to
zero in on your actual heart rate.
Most people have a grip that
is conductive enough to transmit
a good signal. However, some
people have erratic heart rates
or improper body chemistry to
transmit a good signal through the
touch sensitive hand pulse grips.
VARIABLE INCLINE
Press the INCLINE UP or DOWN
arrows to adjust the incline from
level 1 to 20. This incline setting
represents a range of motion.
Incline changes are not immediate.
They will take time to get to the
target incline angle.
