HOW TO OPERATE THE STEPPER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE STEPPER
Place the stepper on a level surface and place a mat
under the stepper. (The stepper features precision
hydraulic cylinders. However, there is a possibility of
slight oil leakage due to the nature of hydraulic cylin-
ders.)
Hold the handlebars and step onto the pedals. Begin
stepping, alternately depressing the right and left ped-
als with a smooth, continuous motion. Because the
pedals move independently of each other, you must
maintain a continuous motion or both pedals will sink
to the floor. Change the height of your step or the
stepping pace until you can comfortably maintain a
continuous motion.
As you step, you can exemise your upper leg muscles
by keeping your feet flat on the pedals. To focus on
your calf muscles, rise on your toes as you step.
Stand erect or lean forward slightlyas you exercise.
Always keep your back straight in order to avoid
injury.
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE
To change the stepping resistance, simplyturn the
resistance collars on the upper ends of the Resistance
Cylinders (28) (see the inset drawing). The arrows on
the Resistance Cylinders and the markings on the
resistance collars show which resistance level has
been selected. Make sure that both Resistance
Cylinders are at the same resistance setting.

If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the console,
remove the plastic. To turn on the console, press the
MODE or RESET button or begin stepping.
As you step, the upper half of the display will show
the total number of steps you have completed. A
mode arrow will point to the letters "CNT."
The lower half of the display will show the elapsed
time, the approximate number of calories you have
burned, and your stepping speed, changing from one
mode to the next every few seconds. One mode
arrow willpoint to the word "SCAN," and a second
mode arrow will point to the letters 'q'IME," =CAL," or
"STRIDES/MIN."
To view one mode continuously in the lower half of
the display, press the MODE button until there is a
mode arrow pointing to the letters "TIME," "CAL," or
"STPS/MIN" but no mode arrow pointing to the word
=SCAN." To view all three modes again, press the but-
ton until there is a mode arrow pointing to the word
"SCAN."
To reset the display, press the RESET button for
about two seconds.
If the pedals are not moved and the MODE and
RESET buttons are not pressed for a few seconds,
the word "STOP" will appear in the left side of the dis-
play. If the pedals are not moved and the buttons are
not pressed for a few minutes, the console will turn
off.
