HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving 
it requires two persons. Stand in front of the elliptical, 
hold the upright, and place one foot against one of the 
wheels. Pull on the upright and have a second person 
lift the rear stabilizer until the elliptical will roll on the 
wheels. Carefully move the elliptical to the desired 
location, and then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use, 
turn the leveling foot beneath the center of the frame 
or turn one or both of the leveling feet beneath the rear 
stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the handlebars or the 
upper body arms and step onto the pedal that is in the 
lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal. 
Push the pedals until they begin to move with a 
continuous motion. Note: The pedal discs can turn 
in either direction. It is recommended that you 
move the pedal discs in the direction shown by the 
arrow; however, for variety, you can turn the pedal 
discs in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to 
a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not have 
a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until 
the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, 
step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower 
pedal.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features 
designed to make your workouts more effective and 
enjoyable. 
When you use 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 heart rate monitor.
The console offers fourteen preset workoutsf
seven weight loss workouts and seven performance 
workouts. Each preset workout automatically changes 
the resistance of the pedals as it guides you through 
an effective workout.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player 
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite 
music or audio books while you exercise.
To use the manual mode, see page 17. To use a 
preset workout, see page 18. To use the sound 
system, see page 19.
Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the display, 
remove the plastic.

 5.  Measure your heart rate if desired. 
  If there are sheets 
of plastic on the 
metal contacts 
on the handgrip 
heart rate monitor, 
remove the plastic. 
In addition, make 
sure that your 
hands are clean. To 
measure your heart 
rate, hold the handgrip heart rate monitor with your 
palms resting against the contacts. Avoid moving 
your hands or gripping the contacts tightly. 
  When your pulse is detected, a heart-shaped 
symbol will flash in the display and then your heart 
rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate 
reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds. 
  If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your 
hands are positioned as described. Be careful not 
to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the 
contacts tightly. For optimal performance, clean 
the contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, 
abrasives, or chemicals to clean the contacts.

 HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1.  Turn on the console.
  Press any button or begin pedaling to turn on the 
console. 
  When you turn on the console, the display will turn 
on. A tone will sound and the console will be ready 
for use.

workout will appear in the lower display.
3.  Begin pedaling to start the workout.
  Each workout is divided into several one-minute 
segments. One resistance level is programmed for 
each segment. Note: The same resistance level 
may be programmed for consecutive segments.
  During the workout, the workout profile will show 
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current 
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing 
segment indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent segment. 
  At the end of each segment of the workout, a 
series of tones will sound and the next segment of 
the profile will begin to flash. If a different resis-
tance level is programmed for the next segment, 
the resistance level will appear in the display for 
a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the 
pedals will then change.
