Understanding the Electronic Console

Once you have assembled your climber, it is ready to use. There are no complex instructions to follow or mandatory programming steps required to operate the climber—the electronic display is there only for reference. It provides motivat- ing feedback about your workout to help you monitor your progress and meet your fitness goals.

The console’s convenient “hands free” function lets you start and end a workout without touching any keys. Simply step onto the climber to begin your workout. The displays automatically appear and begin providing information about your workout. To select a specific informational display, such as TIME or TOTAL STEPS, press the MODE key until the desired information appears on the display.
