HOW TO USE THE AIR WALKER
EXERCISING ON THE AIR WALKER
Make sure that the lock knob is tightened into the left
leg and link plate (see assembly step 2 on page 4).
Adjust the resistance to a high setting, hold the
handles, and step onto the pedals. The proper form
for exercising on the AIR WALKER 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
on your muscles, bend your legs slightly instead of
keeping them straight.
For a lower body workout, rest your hands on the
crossbar cover for balance as you move the pedals.
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
To vary the intensity of your workout, the resistance of
the AIR WALKER can be adjusted. To change the
resistance, turn the resistance dials on the resistance
cylinders. There are twelve different resistance levels.
Arrows on the resistance cylinders will show which
resistance level is selected. Select the same resis-
tance 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 simple-to-operate electronic monitor offers
five different modes to provide instant exercise
feedback. The five modes are described below:
SpeedÑDisplays the number of repetitions you are
performing per minute.
TimeÑDisplays the length of time you have exer-
cised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or
longer, the time mode will pause until you resume.
DistanceÑDisplays the total number of repetitions
you have completed, up to Ò999.Ó The display will then
reset to Ò0Ó 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 speed, time, distance, and calo-
ries modes, for approximately 5 seconds each,
in a repeating cycle.
