HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be grounded.

If it should malfunction

or break

down, grounding

provides a path of least resistance for electric

current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This prod- uct is equipped with a cord having an equipment-

grounding conductor and a grounding plug.		Plug the
power cord into an appropriate outlet that is prop-
erly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances. This product is for
use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. Important: The
elliptical exerciser is not compatible with GFCI-
equipped outlets.
DANGER:		Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor can result
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product—if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qual-
ified electrician.
A temporary
adapter may		Grounded Outlet Box
be used to
connect the		Adapter
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle
as shown at	Lug
the right if a
properly		Metal Screw
grounded
outlet is not

available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in

place by a metal screw.	Some 2-pole receptacle out-
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover
is grounded before using	an adapter.

Note: When the power cord is plugged in, the ellip- tical exerciser’s incline system may automatically calibrate itself. During the calibration process, two dashes (– –) will appear in the left display of the console and the ramp will move to the highest position and then return to the lowest position.

The calibration process will last for one to two minutes.

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars 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.

Pedals

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-

als come to a complete stop.		The elliptical exerciser
does not have a free	wheel; the pedals will contin-
ue to move until the	flywheel stops.	When the ped-

als are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
