HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the center han- dlebar and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The crank arms (inside of the side shields) can be turned in either direction. It is rec- ommended that you turn the crank arms in the same direction that you pedal a bicycle; however, for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the opposite direction.

To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped- als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
