HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
INCLINE ADJUSTMENT
As you exercise on the elliptical crosstrainer, you can
vary the effect of the exercise by raising or lowering
the incline frame. First, position the pedal arms side
by side as shown. Next, lift the incline frame slightly
and pull the incline knob. Raise or lower the incline
frame to the desired position and release the incline
knob. Move the incline frame up or down slightly
until the pin on the incline knob snaps into one of
the four holes in the incline bracket. Push the
incline knob to make sure that the pin is fully
inserted into the hole.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER SUPPLY
Make sure that the power supply is plugged into the
elliptical crosstrainer (see step 11 on page 8). Next,
plug the power supply into an electrical outlet.
Note: Each time the
power supply is
plugged in, the ellip-
tical crosstrainer will
automatically
calibrate itself.
Calibration will take
less than one
minute. During cali-
bration, the letters ÒCALÓ will appear in the left LED
display and the indicators in the TRAINING ZONE
display will light in a rapid sequence.
EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebar
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note:
The pedal disks can turn in either direction. It is
recommended that you move the pedal disks in
the direction shown by the arrow below; however,
to give variety to your exercise, you may turn the
pedal disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a freewheel; the ped-
als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
HOW TO USE THE UPPER BODY ARMS
The upper body
arms are
designed to add
upper-body exer-
cise to your work-
outs. Move the
upper-body arms
forward and back
as you exercise in
order to work your
arms, back, and
shoulders.
To exercise only your lower body, hold the handlebar
as you exercise.
