HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion.

Handlebars

Note: The crank arms can turn in either direction.
tt is recommended that you turn the crank arms in
the direction shown by the arrow at the right; however, for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the
opposite direction.

Pedals

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The ellipticaJ
exerciser does not have a free wheek the pedaJs
witl continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The three resistance & rpm programs automatically
change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pedaling pace as they guide you through an
effective workout.

The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even monitor your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.

The console also features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer in your home. Using a stereo audio cable
(available at electronics stores), you can connect the
elliptical exerciser to your portable stereo, home stereo,
computer, or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and
video programs (iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are
available separately), iFIT.com programs automatically
control the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches you
through every step of your workout. High-energy music
provides added motivation. To purchase iFIT.com
CDs and videocassettes, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual.

The console also offers a selection of preset programs.
The two calorie goal programs allow you to choose a
calorie-burning goal for your workout. As you exercise,
the console will count the calories that you burn until
the goal is reached.
The two pulse control programs automatically control
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
increase or decrease your pedaling pace to keep your
heart rate near a target heart rate setting during your
workout.

With the elliptical exerciser connected to your computer, you can also go to our Web site at wwwJFIT.com
and access programs directly from the intemet.
Explore www.iFIT.com for more information.

The distance program counts the number of revolutions that you pedal during your workout, until you
have completed 5,000 revolutions.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 13. To use a calorie goal
program, see page 15. To use a pulse control program, see page 15. To use the distance program,
see page 17. To use a resistance & rpm program,

Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance setting and one pace

The same resistance setting and/or pace setting
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
segments.

See step 7 on page 14.

As you exercise, the Pace Coach will help you to
keep your pedaling pace near the pace setting for
the current segment. When one of the "Too Slow"
arrows lights, increase your pace. When the one
of the "Too Past" arrows lights, decrease your
pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain
your current pace.

Important: The pace settings are intended
only to provide motivation. Your actuaJ pace
may be slower than the pace settings. Make
sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortabJe

MAINTENANCE

AND TROUBLESHOOTING
HANBGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

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

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

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 consote and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.

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

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

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

If the console displays become dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 7 on page
7 for replacement instructions.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL

For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts
can be cleaned with a soft cloth--never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.

EXERCISER
HOW TO EMMINATE FLEXING IN THE CENTER OF
THE ELMPTJCAL EXERCISER

If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet
beneath the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.

If the elliptical exerciser flexes in the center during
use, turn the base foot (see the drawing at the left)
until the flexing is eliminated.

CONDITIONING

GUiDELiNES
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calodes for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy.
if your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone as you exercise.

AWARNING:
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is espe=
cially important for persons over the age of 35
or persons with pre-existing health problems.

exercise aid in determinin general.

For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic

If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be "aerobic." Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone as you exercise.

The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program, Remember that proper nutrition
and adequate rest are essential for successful results,
EXERCISE iNTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.

WORKOUT

GU!DEMNES

Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.

To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above
your age. The three numbers are your "training zone."
The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates
for fat burning; the highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

A cooJ-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week
if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
