Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four “D” batteries (not
included). If you have not installed batteries, refer
to step 4 on page 5 and install batteries.
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
or begin pedaling.
Select the manual mode.
Each time the console is turned on, the manual
mode will automatically be selected. If a personal
trainer program has been selected, you can
select the manual mode by pressing the Program
button repeatedly until a “P 4” appears in the dis-
play and then pressing the Program button once
more.
Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
the elliptical crosstrainer.
As you exercise, adjust the resistance of the
elliptical crosstrainer as desired by pressing the +
and – buttons. There are ten resistance levels;
level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the
buttons are pressed, it will take a few seconds for
the selected setting to be reached.
Follow your progress with the display.
When the con-
sole is turned
on, the scan
mode will be
selected. As
you exercise,
the display will
show your current speed, the elapsed time, the
distance that you have pedaled, the current resis-
tance level, the approximate number of calories
you have burned, and your power output in watts.
In addition, your heart rate will be shown when
you use the handgrip pulse sensor (refer to step
5 at the right). The display will change from one
mode to the next every six seconds. Note: Each
time the resistance level changes, the console
will show the resistance level for six seconds.
When a personal trainer program is selected, the
display will show the time remaining in the pro-
gram instead of the elapsed time.
If desired, you
can select a sin-
gle mode for
continuous dis-
play. Press the
Display Mode
button repeated-
ly until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time, Miles (or
Kms), Resist., Cals., or Watts indicator appears
in the display. Make sure that the Scan indicator
does not appear.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If there are thin sheets of plastic on the
metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor,
peel off the plastic.
To use the hand-
grip pulse sen-
sor, place your
hands on the
metal contacts.
Your palms must
be on the upper
contacts and
your fingers
must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid mov-
ing 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 sec-
onds. 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 after a few minutes.
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.
