heart rate will be shown.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 30 seconds.

Contacts

Avoid moving

If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your
hands are positioned as described. Avoid moving

our hands excessively or squeezing the metal

contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, peri-

dically clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth;

never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to
clean the contacts.

5. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.

If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the
console displays will pause.

The console has an “auto-off” feature. If the pedals
do not move and the console buttons are not
pressed for a few minutes, the power will turn off
automatically to save the batteries.

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

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING:Before beginning

his or any exercise program, consult your

t
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.

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 exer­cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your

ody uses

to use stored
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

to the near

bottom of the chart (ages are rounded of
est 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.

f

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. Awarm-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

­outs each week, with at least one day of rest

work
between workouts.
cise, 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.
