HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exercis-
er, moving it requires two persons. Stand in front of
the elliptical exerciser, hold the upright, and place one
foot against one of the front wheels. Pull on the upright
and have a second person lift the base until the ellipti-
cal exerciser will roll on the front wheels. Carefully
move the elliptical exerciser to the desired location,
and then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical
exerciser
rocks slightly
on your floor
during use,
turn one or
both of the lev-
eling feet
beneath the
base or
beneath the front stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lower position.
Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note:
The crank arm covers can turn in either direction.
It is recommended that you turn the crank arm
covers in the direction shown by the arrow below;
however, for variety, you can turn the crank arm
covers in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary,step off the higher
pedal first. Then, step offthe lower pedal.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
When you select the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button. As you exercise, the console will display
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.
The console also features five interactive cross train-
ing programs designed to help you to burn calories
and enhance your cardiovascular system while toning
and strengthening your muscles. The cross training
programs automatically control the resistance of the
pedals and prompt you to perform a variety of strength
exercises during your workout. Choose an upper body,
lower body, or whole body cross training program to
focus your workout. Note: The strength exercises
require the use of dumbbells and an inflatable exercise
ball (not included). To purchase dumbbells or an
exercise ball, call the toll-free telephone number
on the front cover of this manual.
You can also use four calorie goal programs designed
to help you burn 300 or 400 calories in 25, 30, or 45-
minute workouts. The calorie goal programs automati-
cally control the resistance of the pedals and prompt
you to increase or decrease your pace while counting
the calories you burn.
The console also offers a high performance program
and a heart rate control program. The high performance
program automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your
pace as it guides you through an effective workout. The
heart rate control program changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you maintain a steady pace to
keep your heart rate near a target heart rate while you
exercise.
To use the manual mode of the console,follow the
steps beginning on page 14. To use a cross training
program,see page 16. To use a calorie goal pro-
gram,see page 18. Touse the high performance
program, see page 19. To use the heart rate control
program,see page 20.

pulse sensor,
remove the plastic.
To measure your
heart rate, hold the
handgrip pulse sen-
sor with your palms
resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving
your hands or gripping the contacts too
tightly.
When your pulse is
detected, a heart-
shaped symbol will
flash in the left side
of the display each
time your heart
beats, one or two dashes will appear, and then
your heart rate will be shown. For the most accu-
rate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at
least 15 seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the
handgrip pulse sensor, the display will show your
heart rate for up to 30 seconds.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that
your hands are positioned as described. Be care-
ful not to move your hands excessively or to

HOW TO USE A CROSS TRAINING PROGRAM
Press the Resistance decrease button or
begin pedaling to turn on the console.
A moment after you turn on the console, the dis-
play will light.
Select one of the five cross training programs.
To select a cross training program, press the
Programs button repeatedly until the name of the
desired cross training program appears in the dis-
play. When a cross training program is selected,
the program time will appear in the display and a
profile of the resistance settings for the program
will scroll across the matrix in the display.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 25, 30, or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance setting and one
target rpm (revolutions per minute) setting are
programmed for most segments. (Note: The same
resistance and/or target rpm setting may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive segments.)
During other segments, the console will prompt you
to perform strength exercises.
The resistance setting
for the first segment
will be shown in the
flashing Current
Segment column of
the matrix. The resis-
tance settings for the next several segments will
be shown in the columns to the right. The target
rpm setting will appear in the top of the display.
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 and
aseries of tones will sound. If the resistance
and/or target rpm is about to change, the resis-
tance setting and/or the target rpm setting will
appear in the display to alert you.
When the first segment is completed,
all resis-
tance settings will move one column to the left
.
The resistance setting for the second segment
will then be shown in the flashing Current
Segment column and the resistance of the pedals
will automatically adjust to the setting for the sec-
ond segment. Note: If all the indicators in the
Current Segment column are lit,
the resistance
settings may move downward
so that only the
highest indicators appear in the matrix.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling pace near the target rpm setting for
the current segment. When the words PEDAL
FASTER appear in the display, increase your
pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear
in the display, decrease your pace. When the
words PEDALING IN RANGE appear, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The target rpm settings are intend-
ed only to provide motivation. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
If the resistance setting for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Resistance decrease or
increase buttons. Every few times you press a
Resistance button, an additional indicator will
appear or disappear in the Current Segment col-
umn; if any of the columns to the right of the
Current Segment column have the same number
of lit indicators as the Current Segment column,
an additional indicator may appear or disappear
in those columns as well. Important: When the
current segment of the program ends, the ellip-
tical exerciser will automatically adjust to the
resistance setting for the next segment.
To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

for the first strength exercise.
Step off the ellipti-
cal exerciser and
prepare to begin
the first strength
exercise. Every few
seconds, the con-
sole will sound a
tone; when a tone sounds, perform one repetition
of the exercise. Exercise with a slow, steady
motion; do not perform more than one repetition
each time a tone sounds. The display will count
down the repetitions as you perform them.
Note: Refer to the accompanying exercise chart
to see the correct form for each exercise. When
performing lunges, alternate legs with each repe-
tition. When performing dumbbell rows, perform
half the repetitions with your right arm and half
the repetitions with your left arm. The strength
exercises require the use of dumbbells and an
inflatable exercise ball (not included). To pur-
chase dumbbells or an exercise ball, call the
toll-free number on the front cover of this
manual.
Continue the cross training program.
When you have performed the recommended
number of repetitions, the words START PEDAL-
ING will appear in the display. To continue the
cross training program, step onto the elliptical
exerciser and start pedaling. the pedals will auto-
matically adjust to the resistance setting for the
next segment.
The program will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. Then, the words PROGRAM
DONE will appear in the display.
Follow your progress with the display.

appears in the display. When a calorie goal pro-
gram is selected, the program time will appear in
the display and a profile of the resistance settings
for the program will scroll across the matrix in the
display.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 25, 30, or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance setting and one
target rpm (revolutions per minute) setting are
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
resistance setting and/or target rpm setting may be
programmed for two or more consecutive seg-
ments. The display for a calorie goal program work
in the same way as the display for the cross train-
ing programs (see step 3 on page 16).
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling pace near the target rpm setting for
the current segment. When the words PEDAL
FASTER appear in the display, increase your
pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear
in the display, decrease your pace. When the
words PEDALING IN RANGE appear, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The target rpm settings are intend-
ed only to provide motivation. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you. Note: If you manually over-
ride the resistance settings of a calorie goal pro-
gram, you may not reach your calorie goal.
To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE CONTROL PROGRAM
Press the Resistance decrease button or
begin pedaling to turn on the console.
A moment after you turn on the console, the dis-
play will light.
Select the heart rate control program.
Press the Programs button repeatedly until the
words HEART RATE CONTROL appear in the
display.
Enter a target heart rate.
The target heart rate
setting for the program
will flash in the dis-
play. Use the
Resistance increase
and decrease buttons
to change the target heart rate setting.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to
hold the handgrip
pulse sensor continu-
ously; however, you
should hold the hand-
grip pulse sensor fre-
quently for the program to operate properly. Each
time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep
your hands on the metal contacts for at least
30 seconds. When you are not holding the hand-
grip pulse sensor, the letters PLS will appear in
the display instead of your heart rate.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
During the program, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will auto-
matically increase or decrease to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate.
You will also be prompted to pedal at a steady
pace so you can maintain your target heart rate.
When the words PEDAL FASTER appear in the
display, increase your pace. When the words
PEDAL SLOWER appear in the display, decrease
your pace. When the words PEDALING IN
RANGE appear, maintain your current pace.
Important: Make sure to exercise at a pace
that is comfortable for you. Note: If you manu-
ally override the resistance settings, you may not
maintain your target heart rate.
Tostop the program at any time, stop pedaling.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

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
asmall 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.
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console display becomes dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 12 on page
11 for replacement instructions.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console does not display your heart rate when
you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,or if the displayed
heart rate appears to be too high or too low,see step
5on page 15.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER on page 12.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the
drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the
drive belt, first remove the screws from the left and
right side shields (not shown). Gently pull the side
shields apart and remove the convenience tray.
Next, locate the Idler Screw (68) and loosen it one
half turn. Step onto the elliptical exerciser and move
the pedals. If the pedals continue to slip, turn the Idler
Screw another half turn and test the pedals again.
Continue in this way until the pedals no longer slip.
Then, replace the convenience tray and reattach the
side shields.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition
and adequate rest are essential for successful results.
Each workout should include the following three parts:
Warming Up—Begin each workout with 5 to 10 min-
utes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-
up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and
circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise—Each workout should con-
sist 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 min-
utes.
Cooling Down—End each workout with 5 to 10 min-
utes of stretching. This will increase the flexibility of
your muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise
problems.
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. Schedule your workouts for the
time of day when your energy level is the highest.
After a few months of regular exercise, you may com-
plete up to five workouts each week, if desired.
Remember, the key to success is make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
CARDIOVASCULAR TRAINING GUIDELINES
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.
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 lowest number is the recommended heart
rate for fat burning, the middle number is the recom-
mended heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the
highest number is the recommended heart rate for
aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
cise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained
period of time. During the first few minutes of exer-
cise, your body uses easily accessible
carbohydrate
calories for energy.Only after the first few minutes of
exercise does your body begin to use stored
fat
calo-
ries 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 exer-
cise. 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 Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, your exercise must be “aero-
bic.” 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.
WARNING:
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.
23
STRENGTH TRAINING GUIDELINES
During strength exercises, you must maintain proper
form for the best results. Maintaining proper form
involves moving through the full range of motion for
each exercise and moving only the appropriate parts
of the body. Exercising in an uncontrolled manner will
reduce the benefits of strength exercises. On the
exercise chart accompanying this manual are pho-
tographs showing the correct form for several strength
exercises.
Perform each repetition of each strength exercise
smoothly and without pausing. The exertion phase of
each repetition should last only about half as long as
the return phase. Proper breathing is also important.
Exhale during the exertion phase of each repetition
and inhale during the return phase—never hold your
breath.
To increase the size and strength of your muscles,
you must work your muscles at a level close to their
maximum capacity. Your muscles will adapt and grow
as you progressively increase the amount of weight
that you use. You can tone your muscles by working
them at a moderate percentage of their capacity. The
proper amount of weight to use for each strength exer-
cise depends on you—you must gauge your limits and
select an appropriate amount of weight.
It is important to avoid overdoing it during the first few
months of your exercise program. Progress at your
own pace and be sensitive to your body’s signals. If
you experience pain or dizziness at any time while
exercising, stop immediately and cool down. Find out
what is wrong before continuing. Remember that ade-
quate rest and a proper diet are important factors in
any exercise program.
