HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exerciser, 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 elliptical exerciser will roll on the front wheels.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SELECTOR HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER The pedals on the elliptical exerciser move your feet in a natural elliptical path. You can adjust the selectors on the elliptical exerciser so that the pedals move in a more vertical path or a more horizontal path. If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet beneath the base until the rocking motion is eliminated.
CONSOLE DIAGRAM FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE The console also offers eight preset workouts that automatically change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to vary your pace while guiding you through an effective workout. The advanced console offers an array of features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable. You can also use the fitness journal to view usage information for your elliptical exerciser.

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove the plastic. The center display— When you select the manual mode, this display will show a track that represents 640 revolutions. As you exercise, indicators will appear in succession around the track until the entire track appears.

To measure your heart rate, hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands or gripping the contacts tightly. If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal contacts tightly.
