    Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical regularly. 
    Replace any worn parts immediately. 
    To clean the elliptical, use a damp cloth and a small 
    amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage 
    to the console, keep liquids away from the console 
    and keep the console out of direct sunlight.
    CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
    If the console display becomes dim, replace all the bat-
    teries at the same time; most console problems are the 
    result of low batteries. See assembly step 6 on page 
    8 for replacement instructions.
    If the console does not display your heart rate when 
    you use the handgrip heart rate monitor, see step 5 on 
    page 18.
    HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
    If the console does not display correct feedback, the 
    reed switch should be adjusted. 
    To adjust the reed switch, you must first remove the 
    Shield Cover (37). Using a flat screwdriver, release 
    the tabs along the sides of the Shield Cover and then 
    remove the Shield Cover.
    Note: For clarity, the pedal disc is shown removed in 
    the drawing below.
    Next, locate the Reed Switch (58). Loosen, but do not 
    remove, the M4 x 16mm Screw (64). 
    Next, rotate the Pulley (66) until a Magnet (41) is 
    aligned with the Reed Switch (58). Slide the Reed 
    Switch slightly toward or away from the Magnet. Then, 
    retighten the M4 x 16mm Screw (64). 
    Rotate the Pulley (66) for a moment. Repeat these 
    actions until the console displays correct feedback. 
    When the reed switch is correctly adjusted, reattach 
    the shield cover.

    HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
    If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, 
    even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest 
    level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted. 
    To adjust the drive belt, you must remove the shield 
    cover and the left shield (see the instructions below). 
    See EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 27. Using a 
    flat screwdriver, release the tabs along the sides of the 
    Shield Cover (37), and then remove the Shield Cover.
    Next, remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (64) and the M4 
    x 19mm Screws (61) from the Left and Right Shields 
    (44, 45). Make sure to note which size of Screw you 
    remove from each hole. Then, gently remove the Left 
    Shield.
    Loosen the Pivot Screw (81). Then, tighten the Drive 
    Belt Adjustment Screw (72) until the Drive Belt (46) is 
    tight. 
    When the Drive Belt (46) is tight, tighten the Pivot 
    Screw (81).
    Then, reattach the left shield and the shield cover.

    EXERCISE GUIDELINES
    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 inten-
    sity 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 near-
    est ten years). The three numbers listed above your 
    age define your atraining zone.b 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 FatfTo burn fat effectively, you must exer-
    cise 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 ExercisefIf 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 UpfStart with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
    ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body 
    temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation 
    for exercise. 
    Training Zone ExercisefExercise for 20 to 30 min-
    utes 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 DownfFinish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
    ing. 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 exer-
    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.
        WARNING: Before beginning this 
    or any exercise program, consult your physi-
    cian. This is especially important for persons 
    over age 35 or persons with pre-existing 
    health problems.
    The heart rate monitor is not a medical device. 
    Various factors may affect the accuracy of 
    heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor is 
    intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
    ing heart rate trends in general.

    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.
