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 displays become dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 9 on page 9 for replacement instructions.

HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart rate readings.

Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate readings.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the metal contacts for about 30 seconds.

For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sen- sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alco- hol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean the con- tacts.

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT

If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the belt, first see assembly step 12 on page 10 and remove the left pedal arm and the left link arm.

Then, carefully

 

pry off the left

 

Disc Cover (13)

 

using a flat

 

screwdriver.

 

Next, remove the

 

four screws (not

 

shown) from the

 

center of the left

13

Disc (12). Gently

rotate the Disc

 

Cover and the

 

Disc away from the elliptical exerciser.

Loosen, but do

 

not remove, the

 

three indicated

 

screws (A). Insert

74

the shaft of a

 

screwdriver

47

downward

48

between the

A

Idler (47) and the

 

Idler Pulley (48).

 

Pull the top of the

 

screwdriver

 

toward the front

 

of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt (74) is tight. Then, tighten the three screws.

Reattach the left disc with the four screws and then reattach the left disc cover. Next, see assembly step 12 on page 10 and reattach the left pedal arm and the left link arm.
