8. Depending on the course you select, you may be prompted to answer more questions before
or during your workout. Hold onto the handrails while you workout.
To pause during your workout session before finishing the selected program, press the Pause
key. Refer to the Pause/Hold to Reset key or see
Pausing Your Workout
or
Ending Your
Workout
for more information.
Important: Do not hold the Pause key down for more than 4 seconds because you will
inadvertently reset the display to the FINAL statistics scan and return to the scrolling banner.
9. When you are finished exercising, review your workout results. Refer to
Ending Your Workout.
Note: Always allow yourself a cool-down period before ending your workout. Cooling down
after your workout helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic
acid out of the working muscles. It also helps your heart rate return to its normal (non-
exercising) state. The EFX provides a 5-minute cool-down period at the end of its program
courses. To exit the course and access the cool down mode, hold the Pause key down for 2 to
4 seconds. A prompt appears, indicating that you are in cool down.
10. When you have completed the 5-minute cool-down, FINAL flashes on the display. A summary of
your workout Time, Total Strides, Calories and Heart Rate (optional) appears in sequence.
After the FINAL workout statistics are scanned, the display returns to the Precor banner.
Note: You can exit the cool down mode prematurely by pressing Pause/Hold to Reset for 2 to
4 seconds. Refer to
Cooling Down After Your Workout
.
11. If you will not be using the EFX for awhile, turn it 0 (OFF). Be sure to secure the roller arm by
inserting the locking pin.
Using the Quick Start Feature
The Quick Start feature on the EFX allows you to bypass the setup prompts to quickly access
Manual mode. The weight setting defaults to 150 pounds (68 kg) so all calorie calculations and
their associated displays are based on a body weight of 150 pounds (68 kg). The Smart Rate
TM
display does not appear when you use the Quick Start key.
Note: Any prompts that appear after the weight prompt require your input before you can proceed.
You can press Quick Start at any prompt and access Manual mode. However, Quick Start is
disabled once you enter a program and begin your workout.
Pausing Your Workout
You can pause any time during your workout or cool down period. Use this feature to rest or take a
short break. To pause while working out, press the Pause key. The display continues scanning and a
scrolling prompt reminds you that you are in Pause mode. You can remain in Pause mode for up to
10 minutes before the display presents your FINAL workout statistics and resets to the Precor banner.
To resume a workout, press Pause again. Hold the handrail when you step onto the foot pedals.
Your workout statistics continue from where you left off.
Since two functions exist (Pause and Hold to Reset) on one key, the longer you press and hold the
key affects what function will be performed. Please refer to page 8,
Keys on the Display Console
to
view a chart of the Pause/Hold to Reset key functions.
