FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
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 con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even monitor your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
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.
The distance program counts the number of revolu-
tions that you pedal during your workout, until you
have completed 5,000 revolutions.
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 console also features iFIT.com interactive technol-
ogy. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal 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 tele-
phone number on the front cover of this manual.
With the elliptical exerciser connected to your comput-
er, 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.

Hotd the handgrip pulse sensor.
it is not necessary to hold the handgdp pulse
sensor continuously during a pulse control pro-
gram; however, you should hold the handgdp
pulse sensor frequently for the program to oper=
ate properly. Each time you hold the handgdp
pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal
contacts for at least 30 seconds.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
PuJse control program 3 is divided into 30 one=
minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
target heart rate setting may be programmed for
two or more consecutive segments.
The target heart rate
setting for the first Current Segment
segment will be
shown in the flashing
Current Segment col=
umn in the center of
the display. The tar=
get heart rate settings for the next four segments
will be shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg=
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a
series of tones will sound, and all tat:get heart
rate settings will move one column to the left.
The target heart rate setting for the second seg-
ment will then be shown in the flashing Current
Segment column.
Pulse control program 4 is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. The same target heart rate set-
ting is programmed for all segments. Note: For a
shorter workout, stop exercising or select a differ-
ent program before the program ends.
During both puJse control programs, the con-
sole wifl regularly compare your heart rate to the
target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too
far below or above the target heart rate setting,
the resistance of the pedals will automatically
increase or decrease to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting.
After the first minute of the program, the Pace
Coach will prompt you to maintain a consistent
pedaling pace. When one of the "Too Slow"
arrows lights, increase your pace. When the one
of the "Too Fast" arrows lights, decrease your
pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The target heart rate settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your
actuaJ heart rate may be sJower than the tar-
get heart rate settings. Make sure to exercise
at a pace that is comfortable for you.
Note: During the program, you can manually over-
ride the resistance setting for the current seg=
ment, if desired, by pressing the increase and
decrease buttons. However, when the console
compares your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting, the resistance of the pedals may auto-
matically increase or decrease to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone
will sound and the program will pause. To restart
the program, simply resume pedaling.

5,000 revolutions
appear in the display.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
When the distance program is used, the console
will function in the same way as when the manual
mode is selected, except the right side of the dis=
play will show the number of revolutions still to be
pedaled instead of the number of revolutions you
have pedaled. When the calorie goal is reached, a
tone will sound and the time will stop incrementing
in the display.
When you are finished exercising, the console
wHI automatically turn off.

gram will scroll across the center of the display.
The left side of the display will show how long the
program will last.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance setting and one pace
setting are programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance setting and/or pace setting
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
segments.
The resistance setting
for the first segment
will be shown in the
flashing Current
Segment column in
the center of the dis=
play. (Note: The pace
i Current Segment
settings are not shown in the display.) The resis-
tance settings for the next four segments will be
shown in the columns to the right.
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.

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 consote 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 7 on page
7 for replacement instructions.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL 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.
HANBGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
.Avoid moving your hands while using the handgnp
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.
HOW TO EMMINATE FLEXING IN THE CENTER OF
THE ELMPTJCAL EXERCISER
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
AWARNING:
Before beginning this or any exercise pro-
gram, consult your physician. This is espe=
cially important for persons over the age of 35
or persons with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
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 recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
165 155 145 140 i30 125 115 _
145 138 130 125 118 Ii0 t03 _)
125 120 115 110 105 95 90
20 30 40 50 60 70 80
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 recommend-
ed heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calodes for ener-
gy. 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 num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be "aerobic." Aerobic exer-
cise 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.
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 prepa-
ration for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer-
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.
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 exer-
cise, 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.
