HOW to USE the Elliptical Crosstrainer

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD

Plug the power cord into a surge protector (not included), and plug the surge protec- tor into a 120-volt out- let. The displays and various indicators on the console will light and a tone will sound.

Note: To decrease the possibility of damaging your machine, always use a surge protector. Each time the power cord is plugged in, the incline frame will move to the lowest position. In addition, the incline frame may automatically move up and down as the elliptical crosstrainer goes through a calibration sequence.

Please read through all instructions in this section before using the elliptical crosstrainer.

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebar and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note:

The pedal disks can turn in either direction. It is recommended that you move the pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow below; however, to give variety to your exercise, you may choose to turn the pedal disks in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. CAUTION: The ellip- tical crosstrainer does not have a freewheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and effective. When the console is in the manual mode, the incline and resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer can be adjusted with a touch of a button. As you exer- cise, the LED matrix and displays will provide continu- ous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in pulse sensor.

The console also offers ten preset workout programs: four incline programs automatically control the incline of the elliptical crosstrainer as they guide you through effective workouts, four resistance programs automati- cally control the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer, and two combination programs control both the incline and the resistance during your workouts.

Note: The console can display distance and speed in either miles or kilometers (see step 4 on page 8). For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to miles.

CAUTION: Before operating the console, read the following precautions.

¥Always hold the handlebar when mounting, dismounting, or using the elliptical crosstrainer.

¥When you stop exercising, allow the pedals to slowly come to a stop.

¥Keep your feet and objects from beneath the elliptical crosstrainer.

¥To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the console dry. Avoid spilling liquid on the console and use only a sealable water bottle.

¥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 deter- mining heart rate trends in general.
