HOW TO USE THE AIR WALKER XT
The unique AIR WALKER XT can be used in either
the dependent mode or the independent mode. In
the dependent mode, as one pedal moves forward,
the other pedal moves backward an equal distance. In
the independent mode, the pedals move indepen-
dently of each other, allowing for a freer movement.
HOW TO USE THE DEPENDENT MODE
Make sure that the lock knob is tightened into the left
leg and link plate. Adjust the resistance to a high
setting (see RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT at the
right). Hold the handles and step onto the pedals. The
proper form for exercising on the AIR WALKER XT is
similar to the motion of walkingÑmove one leg
forward as you move the other leg back.
For a full body workout, hold the handles as you walk,
and move your arms and legs in motion with the
handles and pedals. To vary the effect of the exercise,
change your stance on the AIR WALKER XT by
bending your legs slightly instead of keeping them
straight.
For a lower body workout, rest your hands on the
frame for balance as you move the pedals.
HOW TO USE THE INDEPENDENT MODE
Remove the lock knob and washers from the left leg.
Keep the lock knob and washers in a secure place.
Adjust the resistance to a high setting, hold the
frame, and step onto the pedals. Exercise as
described above. CAUTION: When using the inde-
pendent mode, hold the frame beside the hip pad
and be careful to control your movement and
maintain your balance at all times.
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
To vary the intensity of your workout, the resistance of
the AIR WALKER XT can be adjusted. CAUTION: Do
not adjust the resistance while you are standing
on the AIR WALKER XT. Always dismount the AIR
WALKER XT before adjusting the resistance. To
adjust the resistance, turn the resistance dials on the
resistance cylinders. There are twelve different resis-
tance levels. Arrows on the resistance cylinders will
show which resistance level is selected. Select the
same resistance level on both cylinders.
CAUTION: The resistance cylinders become very
hot during use. Allow the resistance cylinders to
cool before touching them. When adjusting the
resistance, touch only the resistance dials.
ELECTRONIC MONITOR MODES
The electronic monitor offers five modes to provide
instant exercise feedback:
TimeÑDisplays the length of time you have exercised.
Note: If the display reaches 99 minutes and 59
seconds, it will reset to zero and continue counting.
Reps/MinÑDisplays the number of repetitions you
are completing per minute.
RepsÑDisplays the total number of repetitions you
have completed. Note: If the display reaches 8,190, it
will reset to zero and continue counting.
CaloriesÑDisplays the approximate number of
Calories you have burned. Note: If the resistance is
near the highest or lowest setting, the actual number
of Calories you have burned will be slightly higher or
lower than the number displayed.
ScanÑDisplays the other four modes, for five
seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
