tion, the letters

 

CAL will appear in the left display and the indica-

 

tors in the Training Zone bar will flash in

 

sequence. Calibration will last one to two minutes.

 

Press any button on the console or move the

2

pedals to turn on the power.

When any button on the console is pressed or the pedals are moved, the displays and various indicators will light. Note: If the power cord was just plugged in, the power will already be on.

3 Select the manual mode.

When the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. If you have selected a smart program, a heart rate program, or the iFIT.com mode, select the

manual mode by pressing the Select Program button repeatedly until a

track appears in the matrix.

Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of

4the elliptical crosstrainer and the angle of the incline ramp as desired.

As you exercise, change the resis-

tance of the ellipti- cal crosstrainer by

pressing the Resistance but- tons. There are

ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most chal- lenging. Note: After the Resistance buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected resistance level.

To vary the affect of your exercise on

the elliptical crosstrainer,

increase or

decrease the angle of the incline ramp

by pressing the Ramp Angle buttons. There are five ramp angles. Note: After the Ramp Angle buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the ramp to reach the selected angle.

Watch your progress with the matrix, the

Training Zone bar, and the two displays.

 

The matrix

 

When the manual

 

mode or the

 

 

iFIT.com mode is

 

 

selected, the matrix

 

will show a track

 

representing 1/4

 

mile. As you exercise, the indicators around the

 

track will flash to indicate your position on the

 

track. When you have completed a lap, a new

 

lap will begin.

 

 

The Training Zone

 

 

bar —The Training

 

Zone bar will show

 

your pace and the

 

approximate inten-

 

sity level of your

 

exercise. For example, if three or four indicators in

 

the bar are lit, the bar shows that your pace is

 

ideal for fat burning. During smart programs and

 

heart rate programs, the Training Zone bar will also

 

prompt you to increase or decrease your pace.

 

The left display

 

The left display will

 

show the elapsed

 

time, the resistance

 

level, your speed,

 

and the angle of the

 

incline ramp. The

 

display will change from one number to the next

 

every few seconds, as shown by the indicators

 

around the display. When a smart program or a

 

heart rate program is selected, the display will

 

show the time remaining in the program rather

 

than the elapsed time.
