Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four “D” batteries (not
included). If you have not installed batteries, refer
to step 5 on page 7 and install batteries.
To turn on the console, press any button or begin
pedaling.
Select the manual mode.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be selected.
If a preset pro-
gram, a heart
rate program,
or the iFIT.com mode has been selected, select
the manual mode by pressing the Select Program
button repeatedly until the upper right corner of
the display is blank.
Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
the elliptical crosstrainer.
As you exercise, adjust the resistance of the
elliptical crosstrainer as desired by pressing the
Resistance buttons. There are ten resistance lev-
els; level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After
the buttons are pressed, it will take a few sec-
onds for the selected setting to be reached.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes,
the left bar graph, and the training zone display.
As you exer-
cise, the display
will show your
current speed,
the elapsed
time, the cur-
rent resistance
level, the
approximate number of calories you have
burned, the distance that you have pedaled, and
your power output in watts. In addition, your heart
rate will be shown when you use the handgrip
pulse sensor (refer to step 5 at the right) or the
optional chest pulse sensor (refer to page 20).
Note: Each time the resistance level changes, the
console will show the resistance level for six sec-
onds. When a preset program or a heart rate pro-
gram is selected, the display will show the time
remaining in the program instead of the elapsed
time.
In addition, the left bar graph will appear in the dis-
play to show your exercise pace. As you increase
or decrease your pace, additional bars will appear
or disappear in the bar graph.
If desired, you can select a single feedback mode
for continuous display. Press the Display button
repeatedly until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time,
Resist., Cals., Miles (or Kms), or Watts indicator
appears in the display. Make sure that the Scan
indicator does not appear.
In addition, the
training zone
display will show
the approximate
intensity level of
your exercise.
For example, if
three or four
indicators in the display are lit, the display shows
that your intensity level is ideal for fat burning.
Note: The console can show speed and dis-
tance in either miles or kilometers. To change
the unit of measurement, first hold down the
Start Program button for three seconds. An E
(for English miles) or an M (for metric kilome-
ters) will appear in the display. To change the
unit of measurement, press the + button. Then,
press the Start Program button again. When
the batteries are replaced, it may be necessary
to reselect the desired unit of measurement.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you wear the optional chest pulse
sensor (see page 20) and hold the handgrip
pulse sensor at the same time, the console
may not display your heart rate accurately.
If there are thin
sheets of plas-
tic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, peel off
the plastic. To
use the handgrip
pulse sensor,
place your hands on the metal contacts. Your
palms must be on the upper contacts and your
