MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If the console display becomes dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 13 on page 11 for replacement instructions.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER on page 14.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed switch, first remove the screws from the left and right side shields; there are two sizes of screws in the side shields—note which size of screw you remove from each hole. Gently pull the side shields apart and remove the convenience tray.

Next, see the drawing below and locate the Reed Switch (50). Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M4 x 16mm Self-tapping Screw (79). Slide the Reed Switch slightly toward or away from a Magnet (55) on the flywheel.

Then, retighten the Screw. Turn one of the Crank Arms

(36)for a moment. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, replace the convenience tray and reattach the left and right side shields.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the drive belt, first remove the screws from the left and right side shields; there are two sizes of screws in the side shields—note which size of screw you remove from each hole. Gently pull the side shields apart and remove the convenience tray.

Next, locate the Idler Screw (68) and loosen it one half turn. Step onto the elliptical exerciser and move the pedals. If the pedals continue to slip, turn the Idler Screw another half turn and test the pedals again. Continue in this way until the pedals no longer slip. Then, replace the convenience tray and reattach the side shields.
