Using the Quick Start Feature
The Quick Start feature on the EFX allows you to bypass the setup prompts to quickly access Manual mode. The weight setting defaults to 150 pounds (68 kg) so all calorie calculations and their associated displays are based on a body weight of 150 pounds (68 kg). The Smart Rate display will not work when you use the Quick Start key.
Note: Any prompts that appear after the weight prompt require your input before you can proceed. You can press Quick Start at any prompt and access Manual mode. However, Quick Start is disabled once you enter a program and begin your workout.
Retrieving the Previous Workout Program
To retrieve the previous workout program, simply press the ENTER key successively three times after displaying the weight prompt. Note that if someone else has exercised on the EFX after your workout, whatever program he or she used will be the one that is restored from memory.
