HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE

Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it.

The innovative console offers a manual mode and three pacer programs. The pacer programs are designed to help you achieve your exercise goals by pacing your exercise. The console also features six monitor modes that provide continuous exercise feedback.

HOW THE PACER PROGRAMS OPERATE

When you use a pacer program,

two columns of

bars will appear

in the display. The left column will show a target pace, which is determined by

the program you have selected;

the right column will show your actual pace. The target pace will change periodically during the program; as the target pace changes, simply adjust your pace to keep both columns at the same height. Important:

The target pace is a goal pace. Your actual pace

may be slower than the target pace, especially during the first few months of your exercise pro- gram. Be sure to exercise at a pace that is com- fortable for you.

The three graphs on the console show how the target pace will change during the pacer programs (see the drawing at the left). Each graph is divided into ten columns, and each column represents a two-minute time period. The bars in each column show what the target pace will be during that two-minute period. For example, in the first column of graph 1, there is one bar. This shows that during the first two minutes of program 1, the target pace will be about 1.5 miles per hour (see the scale at the left end of the graph). In the second column, there are five bars. This shows that during the second two-minute period, the target pace will be almost 4.5 mph. Each pacer program is twenty minutes long.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MONITOR MODES

The six monitor modes provide continuous exercise feedback. The modes are described below.

¥SpeedÑThis mode shows your pace, in miles per hour.

¥TimeÑIf you select one of the three pacer programs, this mode will count down the time remaining in the program. If you select the manual mode, this mode will count up the length of time you have exercised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or longer, the time mode will pause.

¥DistanceÑThis mode shows the distance you have completed, in miles.

¥Fat calories (FAT CALS)ÑThis mode shows the approximate number of fat calories you have burned. (See BURNING FAT on page 12 for an explanation of fat calories.)

¥Calories (CALS)ÑThis mode shows the approxi- mate number of calories you have burned. (This number includes both fat calories and carbohydrate calories.)

¥ScanÑThis mode displays the calories, fat calories, speed, time, and distance modes, for five seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
