Turn on the power
Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged
in (see page 6). To turn on the power, press the
START/PAUSE button or simply begin exercising.
The console will sound a tone and various dis-
plays and indicators will light. Note: If you have
moved the pedals, the power will already be on.
Select the manual mode
Each time the power is
turned on, the manual
mode will be selected,
as shown by the MANU-
AL CONTROL indicator.
If a workout program has
been selected, press the PROGRAM SELECT
button repeatedly to scroll through the programs
and select the manual mode.
Begin exercising and adjust the incline and
resistance
When the manual mode is selected, the incline
and resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer will be
at the minimum settings. As you exercise, adjust
the incline and resistance as desired by pressing
the INCLINE and RESISTANCE buttons. Note:
After the buttons are pressed, it may take a few
seconds for the selected setting to be reached.
Follow your progress with the console displays
As you exercise,
the LED matrix will
display the distance
you have traveled
on a quarter-mile
track. The indicators
around the track will
light one at a time
until the entire track
is lit. A new lap will then begin.
In addition, the two displays will show the
elapsed time, distance, incline level, laps com-
pleted, current speed, calories burned, and resis-
tance level, in five-second intervals. Your heart
rate will also be shown when the pulse sensor is
used (see step 5).
Note: The console can display speed in either
miles per hour or kilometers per hour. When the
power is first
turned on, the let-
ters ÒMÓ or ÒKÓ will
appear in the LED
matrix to show
which measure-
ment is selected.
To change the
measurement,
simultaneously
press the INCLINE
and RESISTANCE
but-
tons until the console sounds a tone and the new
measurement appears. Note: If you select miles
per hour, distance will be displayed in miles. If
you select kilometers per hour, distance will be
displayed in kilometers.
Measure your heart rate if desired
To use the pulse
sensor, place your
hands on the
metal contacts.
Your palms must
be resting on the
upper contacts and
your fingers must
be touching the
lower contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When
your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator
below the right display will flash each time your
heart beats. After a moment, three dashes (Ð Ð Ð)
will appear and your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. The
display will show your heart rate for up to two
minutes; the display will then show your current
speed, calories burned, your heart rate, and the
resistance level, in five-second intervals. Note:
Your heart rate will be shown only when the
pulse sensor is used.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off after ten minutes
If the pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for ten minutes, the con-
sole will automatically switch into a ÒsleepÓ
mode. The incline frame will then rise to facilitate
moving the elliptical crosstrainer. Note: Unplug
the power cord following each use.
