fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is
detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the display
will flash each time your heart beats. After a
moment, two dashes (– –) will appear and then
your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 15 seconds. Note:
When you first hold the handgrips, the display will
show your heart rate continuously for 15 seconds.
The display will then show your heart rate along
with the other feedback modes.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
If the pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for a few minutes, the con-
sole will automatically turn off to conserve the
batteries.
Turn on the console.
Refer to step 1 on page 12.
Select one of the four preset programs.
Each time the
console is turned
on, the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select a preset
program, press
the Select
Program button repeatedly until the number 1, 2,
3, or 4 appears in the upper right corner of the
display.
The profiles numbered 1 through 4 on the left
side of the console show the resistance and pace
settings for the preset programs. For example,
profile number 4 shows that when preset program
4 is selected, both the resistance and the pace
will gradually increase during the first half of the
program, and then decrease during the last half.
Start the program.
To start the program, press the Start Program
button or simply begin exercising. Each preset
program consists of twenty, one-minute periods.
One resistance setting and one pace setting are
programmed for each period. (The same resis-
tance setting and/or pace setting may be pro-
grammed for consecutive periods.)
During the program, the resistance of the elliptical
crosstrainer will automatically change as shown
by the applicable profile on the console. If the cur-
rent resistance level is too high or too low, you
can change the resistance level by pressing the
Resistance buttons. However, when the current
period of the program is completed, the resis-
tance level will automatically change if a different
resistance setting is programmed for the next
period.
The pace set-
tings for the pro-
gram will be
shown by the
right bar graph in
the display. (The
left bar graph will
show your actual
exercise pace.) As the right bar graph changes
during the program, simply increase or decrease
your pace so that the same number of bars
appear in both bar graphs. If your pace is slower
than the current pace setting, the increase arrow
will also appear in the display to prompt you to
increase your pace; if your pace is faster than the
pace setting, the decrease arrow will appear.
Important: The pace settings for the program
are intended only to provide a goal. Your actu-
al pace may be slower than the pace settings,
especially during the first few months of your
exercise program. Make sure to exercise at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
During the program, the display will show the time
remaining in the program. When no time remains,
the program will be completed. If you continue to
exercise after the program is completed, the dis-
play will continue to show your exercise feedback.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.
Refer to step 4 on page 12.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 12.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
Refer to step 6 above.
