HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD A temporary adapter may be used to connect the power cord to a 2-pole receptacle as shown at the right if a properly grounded outlet is not available. This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a grounding pin.
HOW TO FOLD AND UNFOLD THE ELLIPTICAL HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL When the elliptical is not in use, the frame can be folded out of the way. First, lift the latch under each pedal arm, and lift the pedal arms off the sleeves on the crank arms. To move the elliptical, first fold it as described at the left. Next, stand in front of the elliptical, hold the upright, and place one foot against one of the wheels. Pull the upright until the elliptical rolls on the wheels.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical 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 off the lower pedal. To mount the elliptical, hold the upper body arms and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal.
CONSOLE DIAGRAM 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 and the incline of the ramp with the touch of a button. While you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise feedback. You can also measure your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor. The console offers twenty-two onboard workouts.
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER 3. Change the resistance of the pedals and the incline of the ramp as desired. IMPORTANT: If the elliptical has been exposed to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room temperature before turning on the power. If you do not do this, you may damage the console displays or other electrical components. Plug in the power cord (see HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD on page 16). Next, locate the power switch on the frame near the power cord. Press the power switch to the reset position.
Incline—This display mode will show the incline level of the ramp for a few seconds each time the incline level changes. Calorie—This tab will show the approximate amount of calories you have burned. The height of each segment represents the amount of calories burned during that segment. Pulse—This display mode will show your heart rate when you use the handgrip heart rate monitor (see step 5).
5. Measure your heart rate if desired. 6. Turn on the fan if desired. If there are sheets of plasContacts tic on the metal contacts on the handgrip heart rate monitor, remove the plastic. To measure your heart rate, hold the handgrip heart rate monitor with your palms resting against the contacts. Avoid moving your hands or gripping the contacts tightly. The fan has low and high speed settings. Press the fan increase and decrease buttons repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the fan.
HOW TO USE AN ONBOARD WORKOUT resistance level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm is programmed for the next segment, the resistance level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals and the incline level of the ramp will then change. 1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 20.
HOW TO USE A SET-A-GOAL WORKOUT Note: The calorie goal is an estimate of the number of calories that you will burn during the workout. The actual number of calories that you burn will depend on various factors such as your weight. In addition, if you manually change the resistance or incline of the ramp during the workout, the number of calories you burn will be affected. 1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console. See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page 20. 2.
HOW TO USE AN IFIT WORKOUT To compete in a race that you have previously scheduled, press the Compete button. You must have an iFit module to use an iFit workout. To re-run a recent iFit workout from your schedule, first press the Track button. Next, press the increase and decrease buttons to select the desired workout. Then, press the Enter button to start the workout. To purchase an iFit module at any time, go to www.iFit.com or call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual.
6. Follow your progress with the display. HOW TO USE THE SOUND SYSTEM See step 4 on page 20. The My Trail tab will show a map of the trail you are walking or running or it will show a track and the number of laps you complete. To play music or audio books through the console sound system while you exercise, plug your audio cable into the jack on the console and into a jack on your MP3 player or CD player; make sure that your audio cable is fully plugged in.
HOW TO CHANGE CONSOLE SETTINGS If no module is connected, the display will show the words NO IFIT MODULE. If no module is connected, go to step 10. The console features a user mode that allows you to view usage information, select a unit of measurement, and adjust the contrast level of the display. 6. Select an audio setting for the voice of the personal trainer if desired.
FCC INFORMATION This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. To clean the elliptical, 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. To adjust the reed switch, first unplug the power cord.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT See EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 37. Remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (93) and the M4 x 42mm Screws (124) from the Right and Left Shields (18, 19). Make sure to note which size Screws come from which holes. Then, carefully remove the Left Shield. If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the drive belt, first unplug the power cord.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise 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.
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. 1 2. Hamstring Stretch Sit with one leg extended.
