HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE OF THE
PEDALS
As you exercise,
you can adjust
the resistance of
the pedals with
the resistance
knob on the
right side of the
console. To
increase the
resistance,
turn the knob
clockwise; to
decrease the
resistance, turn
the knob counter-
clockwise. The
number in the
resistance win-
dow displays the
resistance level.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS
The motion of
the elliptical
crosstrainer is
determined by
the position of
the pedals.
To adjust the
pedals, first
loosen the pedal
knobs beneath
the pedals. Slide
the pedals for-
ward or back-
ward to one of
the five posi-
tions, and then
retighten the
knobs. Make
sure that both pedals are in the same position.
HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS
The handlebars are
designed to add
upper-body exer-
cise to your work-
outs. As you exer-
cise, push and pull
the handlebars to
work your arms,
shoulders, and
back.
To exercise only your lower body, hold the console
handgrip as you exercise.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To mount the
elliptical cross-
trainer, hold the
console hand-
grip and step
onto the pedal
that is in the
lowest position.
Then, 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 direc-
tion. It is rec-
ommended that you move the pedal disks in the
direction shown by the arrow; however, for variety,
you may turn the pedal disks in the opposite direc-
tion.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. (Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; 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.
