HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
Make sure that the power cord is plugged in.
Make sure that the power cord is properly
plugged in (see HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER
CORD on page 8).
Note: When the
power cord is
plugged in, the
elliptical cross-
trainer may auto-
matically cali-
brate itself.
During calibra-
tion, the letters
CAL will appear in the left display and the indica-
tors in the Training Zone bar will flash in
sequence. Calibration will last one to two minutes.
Press any button on the console or move the
pedals to turn on the power.
When any button on the console is pressed or
the pedals are moved, the displays and various
indicators will light. Note: If the power cord was
just plugged in, the power will already be on.
Select the manual mode.
When the power is turned on, the manual mode
will be selected. If you have selected a smart
program, a heart rate program, or the iFIT.com
mode, select the
manual mode by
pressing the Select
Program button
repeatedly until a
track appears in
the matrix.
Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
the elliptical crosstrainer and the angle of the
incline ramp as desired.
As you exercise,
change the resis-
tance of the ellipti-
cal crosstrainer by
pressing the
Resistance but-
tons. There are
ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most chal-
lenging. Note: After the Resistance buttons are
pressed, it will take a moment for the pedals to
reach the selected resistance level.
To vary the affect
of your exercise on
the elliptical
crosstrainer,
increase or
decrease the angle
of the incline ramp
by pressing the Ramp Angle buttons. There are
five ramp angles. Note: After the Ramp Angle
buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the
ramp to reach the selected angle.
Watch your progress with the matrix, the
Training Zone bar, and the two displays.
The matrix
When the manual
mode or the
iFIT.com mode is
selected, the matrix
will show a track
representing 1/4
mile. As you exercise, the indicators around the
track will flash to indicate your position on the
track. When you have completed a lap, a new
lap will begin.
The Training Zone
bar—The Training
Zone bar will show
your pace and the
approximate inten-
sity level of your
exercise. For example, if three or four indicators in
the bar are lit, the bar shows that your pace is
ideal for fat burning. During smart programs and
heart rate programs, the Training Zone bar will also
prompt you to increase or decrease your pace.
The left display
The left display will
show the elapsed
time, the resistance
level, your speed,
and the angle of the
incline ramp. The
display will change from one number to the next
every few seconds, as shown by the indicators
around the display. When a smart program or a
heart rate program is selected, the display will
show the time remaining in the program rather
than the elapsed time.
