FAN WORKOUT
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
When you use 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 offers three interactive cross training
workouts designed to help you to burn calories and
enhance your cardiovascular system while toning and
strengthening your muscles. The cross training work-
outs automatically control the resistance of the pedals
and prompt you to perform a variety of strength exer-
cises during your workout. Note: The strength exercis-
es require the use of dumbbells and an inflatable exer-
cise ball (not included). To purchase dumbbells or
an exercise ball, call 1-888-533-1333.
The console also offers two target toning workouts
designed to work specific areas of the body. The con-
sole guides you through each workout with a variety of
exercise instructions while automatically changing the
resistance of the pedals.
In addition, you can use three calorie goal workouts
designed to help you burn 300 or 400 calories in 30- or
45-minute workouts. The calorie goal workouts auto-
matically control the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to vary your pace while counting the calo-
ries you burn.
The console also has a high performance workout that
automatically changes the resistance of the pedals and
prompts you to vary your pace as it guides you through
an effective workout.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 15. To use a cross training
workout, see page 16. To use a target toning work-
out, see page 18. To use a calorie goal workout,

3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 25 or 45 one-minute
segments. One resistance level and one target
rpm (revolutions per minute) setting are pro-
grammed for most segments. (Note: The same
resistance level and/or target rpm setting may be
programmed for consecutive segments.) During
other segments, the console will prompt you to per-
form strength exercises.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent segment. At the end of each segment of the
workout, a series of tones will sound and the next
segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a differ-
ent resistance level is programmed for the next
segment, the resistance level will appear in the
display for a few seconds to alert you. The resis-
tance of the pedals will then change.

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 upper display or the GO
FASTER indicator on the pace guide is lit,
increase your pace. When the words PEDAL
SLOWER appear or the GO SLOWER indicator is
lit, decrease your pace. When the words PEDAL-
ING IN RANGE appear or when the center indica-
tor is lit, maintain your current pace.
GO FASTER _ GO SLOWER
IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your actu-
al pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is com-
fortable for you.

too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Resistance decrease and
increase buttons. However, when the current seg-
ment ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to
the resistance level for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To
restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The
workout will continue until the last segment of the
profile flashes and the last segment of the workout
ends.

most benefit from your workout. For example, the
console may instruct you to PEDAL BACKWARD,
USE UPPER BODY, or FOCUS LOWER BODY
during certain segments of the workout.
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 upper display or the GO
FASTER indicator on the pace guide is lit,
increase your pace. When the words PEDAL
SLOWER appear or the GO SLOWER indicator is
lit, decrease your pace. When the words PEDAL-
ING IN RANGE appear or when the center indica-
tor is lit, maintain your current pace.
GO FASTER _ GO SLOWER
IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your actu-
al pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is com-
fortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Resistance decrease and
increase buttons. However, when the current seg-
ment ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to
the resistance level for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To
restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The
workout will continue until the last segment of the
profile flashes and the last segment of the workout
ends.
When the last segment of the workout ends, the
words PROGRAM DONE will appear in the upper
display.

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 console 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 5 on page 8
for replacement instructions.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-
ly, see step 5 on page 16.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. First, remove all of
the screws from both shields; there are three sizes of
screws in the shields--note which size of screw
you remove from each hole. Then, gently pry the
shields away from the frame.
Next, locate the
Reed Switch (58).
Turn the Left 58
Pedal Disc (26)
until the Magnet
(41) is aligned
with the Reed
Switch. Loosen,
but do not
remove, the indi-
cated M4 x
16mm Screw
(84). Slide the
Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the
Magnet, and then retighten the Screw. Rock the Left
Pedal Disc forward and backward just enough that the
Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly. Repeat
until the console displays correct feedback. When the
Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the
shields. Note: If you have questions as to which screw
should be in which hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING
B on page 27 and the PART LIST on page 24.
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance of the pedals is at the high-
est setting, the Belt (46) may need to be adjusted.
First, remove all the screws from both shields; there
are three sizes of screws in the shields--note
which size of screw you remove from each hole.
Then, gently pry the shields away from the frame.
Next, turn the
Belt Adjustment
Screw (72) until
the Belt (46) is
tight. Then, reat-
tach the shields.
Note: If you have
questions as to
which screw
should be in
which hole, see
EXPLODED
DRAWING B on page 27 and the PART LIST on page
24.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: Beforebeginning
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.
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.
These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,
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, exercising at the proper inten-
sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for
fat burning and aerobic exercise.
165 155 145 140 130 125 115 _
145 138 130 125 118 110 103 CV)
125 120 ]I5 110 105 95 90 V
20 30 40 50 60 70 80
To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-
est ten years). The three numbers listed above your
age define your "training zone." The lowest number is
the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the
heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest
number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Burning Fat--To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
body uses carbohydrate calories 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. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your
heart rate near the middle number in your training
zone.
Aerobic Exercise--If your goal is to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic
exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts
of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming Up--Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Training Zone Exercise--Exercise for 20 to 30 min-
utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During
the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not
keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer
than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you
exercise-never hold your breath.
Cooling Down--Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your
muscles and helps 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. Remember, the key to success is to
make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your
everyday life.
22
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.
Move slowly as you stretch--never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of
knees, and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat
3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
tendons, and ankles.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp
one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your
buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3
times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for
15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and
hip muscles.
