HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

1 Turn on the console.

Note: The console requires four “D” batteries (not included). If you have not installed batteries, refer to step 5 on page 7 and install batteries.

To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button or begin pedaling.

2 Select the manual mode.

	Each time the
	console is	This corner
	turned on, the	should be blank
	manual mode
	will be select-
	ed. If a Smart
	program, a
	Heart Rate pro-
	gram, or the iFIT.com mode has been selected,
	select the manual mode by pressing the Program
	button repeatedly until the upper right corner of
	the display is blank.
	Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
3
	the elliptical crosstrainer.
	As you exercise, adjust the resistance of the
	elliptical crosstrainer as desired by pressing the +
	and – buttons. There are ten resistance levels;
	level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the
	buttons are pressed, it will take a few		seconds for
	the selected setting to be reached.
	Follow your progress with the feedback modes
4
	and the left pace indicator.
	When the con-
	sole is turned
	on, the scan
	mode will be
	selected. As
	you exercise,
	the display will
	show your cur-
	rent speed, the elapsed time, the distance that
	you have pedaled, the current resistance level,
	the approximate number of calories you have
	burned, and the approximate number of fat calo-
	ries you have burned. In addition, your heart rate
	will be shown when you use the handgrip pulse
	sensor (refer to step 5 below) or the optional
	chest pulse sensor (refer to page 20). Note: Each
	time the resistance level changes, the console

will show the resistance level for six seconds. In addition, when a Smart program or a Heart Rate program is selected, the display will show the

time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time.

If desired, you can select a single feedback mode for continuous display. Press the Display Mode button repeatedly until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time, Miles (or Kms), Resist., Cals., or Fat Cals. indicator appears in the display. Make sure that the Scan indicator does not appear.

In addition, the left pace indicator will appear in the display to show your exercise pace. As you

increase or decrease your pace, additional bars will appear or disappear on the pace indicator.

5 Measure your heart rate if desired.

Note: If you wear the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 20) and hold the handgrip pulse sensor at the same time, the console may not display your heart rate accurately.

If there are thin	Metal
sheets of plas-
tic on the metal	Contacts
contacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, peel off
the plastic.	To
use the handgrip
pulse sensor,
place your hands on the metal contacts. Your
palms must be on the upper contacts and your
fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is

detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the dis- play will flash each time your heart beats. After a moment, two dashes (– –) will appear and then your heart rate will be shown.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue

to hold the handgrips for about 15 seconds. Note: When you first hold the handgrips, the display will show your heart rate continuously for 15 sec-

onds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other feedback modes.

When you are finished exercising, the console

6 will automatically turn off.

If the pedals are not moved and the console but-

tons are not pressed for a few minutes, the con- sole will automatically turn off to conserve

the batteries.
