The simple-to-operate electronic monitor offers five different modes to provide instant exercise feedback. The five modes are described below: SpeedÑDisplays the number of repetitions you are performing per minute. EXERCISING ON THE AIR WALKER TimeÑDisplays the length of time you have exercised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or longer, the time mode will pause until you resume. Make sure that the lock knob is tightened into the left leg and link plate (see assembly step 2 on page 4). Adjust the resistance to a high setting, hold the handles, and step onto the pedals. The proper form for exercising on the AIR WALKER is similar to the motion of walkingÑmove one leg forward as you move the other leg back. DistanceÑDisplays the total number of repetitions you have completed, up to Ò999.Ó The display will then reset to Ò0Ó and continue counting. CaloriesÑDisplays the approximate number of Calories you have burned. Note: If the resistance is near the highest or lowest setting, the actual number of Calories you have burned will be slightly higher or lower than the number displayed. For a full body workout, hold the handles as you walk and move your arms and legs in motion with the handles and pedals. To vary the effect of the exercise on your muscles, bend your legs slightly instead of keeping them straight. For a lower body workout, rest your hands on the crossbar cover for balance as you move the pedals. ScanÑDisplays the speed, time, distance, and calories modes, for approximately 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle. RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT DIAGRAM OF THE ELECTRONIC MONITOR To vary the intensity of your workout, the resistance of the AIR WALKER can be adjusted. To change the resistance, turn the resistance dials on the resistance cylinders. There are twelve different resistance levels. Arrows on the resistance cylinders will show which resistance level is selected. Select the same resistance level on both cylinders. 1 2 CAUTION: The resistance cylinders become very hot during use. Allow the resistance cylinders to cool before touching them. When adjusting the resistance, touch only the resistance dials. 3 4 1. LCD displayÑDisplays all modes. Resistance Dial 2.

The mode indicators will show which mode has been selected. (Make sure that the scan mode is not selected.) The modes will be selected in the following order: speed, time, distance, calories, scan. Before the electronic monitor can be operated, two ÒAAÓ batteries must be installed. If you have not installed batteries, see assembly step 3 on page 4. OPERATING THE ELECTRONIC MONITOR 1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or simply begin exercising on the AIR WALKER. The entire display will appear for two seconds.

Lock Knob Front Back Hand Frame Upright 8 Round Tube 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. your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust your pace until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone as you exercise. It may also be helpful to set the dials on the resistance cylinders at level 1, 2, 3, or 4. WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. For maximum fat burning, adjust your pace until your heart rate is near the middle number in your training zone as you exercise. Aerobic Exercise EXERCISE INTENSITY If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó 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 your pace until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone. It may also be helpful to set the dials on the resistance cylinders at level 5, 6, 7, or 8. Whether your goal is to burn fat or 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. Strength Training To strengthen and tone your muscles, you must exercise your muscles at a moderate to high percentage of their capacity. Set the dials on the resistance cylinders at level 9, 10, 11, or 12. HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE To measure your heart rate, first exercise for at least four minutes. Then, stop exercising and place two fingers on your wrist as shown. Take a six-second heartbeat count, and multiply the result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. (A sixsecond count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising.) To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, look above your age and find the three numbers in light grey boxes. The three numbers are your Òtraining zone.Ó The lowest number is the recommended heart rate for fat burning; the middle number is the recommended heart rate for maximum fat burning; the highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise. Fat Burning To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is at the desired level. You can adjust the intensity of your exercise by adjusting the resistance or by changing your pace. 9 WORKOUT GUIDELINES when you stop exercising suddenly. Stretching for increased flexibility is also most effective after exercising. A proper cool-down should leave you relaxed and comfortably tired. Each workout should include the following three parts: A warm-up, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with slow, controlled stretches, and progress to more rhythmic stretches to increase the body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for strenuous exercise. EXERCISE FREQUENCY Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 minutes of exercising with your heart rate in your training zone. To maintain or improve your condition, plan 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. A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Thorough stretching helps to offset problems caused Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
