IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS  
WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-  
tions before using the elliptical crosstrainer.  
1. Read all instructions in this manual before  
using the elliptical crosstrainer.  
12. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors, including the user's move-  
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate  
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only  
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate  
trends in general.  
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure  
that all users of the elliptical crosstrainer  
are adequately informed of all precautions.  
3. The elliptical crosstrainer is intended for  
in-home use only. Do not use the elliptical  
crosstrainer in a commercial, rental, or insti-  
tutional setting.  
13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals  
to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-  
tical crosstrainer does not have a free  
wheel; the pedals will continue to move until  
the flywheel stops.  
4. Place the elliptical crosstrainer on a level  
surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the  
floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical crosstrain-  
er indoors, away from moisture and dust.  
14. Always unplug the power cord immediately  
after use and before cleaning the elliptical  
crosstrainer.  
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-  
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.  
15. The decal shown below has been placed on  
the elliptical crosstrainer. If the decal is  
missing or illegible, please call our Customer  
Service Department toll-free at 1-888-825-  
2588 to order a free replacement decal.  
Apply the decal in the location shown.  
6. Keep children under age 12 and pets away  
from the elliptical crosstrainer at all times.  
7. The elliptical crosstrainer should not be used  
by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.  
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothing when  
using the elliptical crosstrainer. Always wear  
athletic shoes for foot protection.  
9. Always hold the handlebar or the upper  
body arms when mounting, dismounting, or  
using the elliptical crosstrainer.  
10. Keep your back straight when using the ellip-  
tical crosstrainer; do not arch your back.  
11. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercis-  
ing, stop immediately and cool down.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician.  
This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health prob-  
lems. Read all instructions before using. SEARS assumes no responsibility for personal injury or

matrix will show a simplified profile of the program.  
The program will continue until the resistance set-  
ting for the last segment is shown in the Current  
Segment column of the matrix and the left display  
shows that no time remains in the program.  
Note: During the program, you can adjust the  
angle of the incline ramp with the Ramp Angle but-  
tons. In addition, you can override the resistance  
setting for the current segment, if desired, with  
the Resistance buttons. However, when the next  
segment begins, the resistance will automatically  
adjust to the setting for the next segment. If you  
stop exercising for several seconds, a tone will  
sound and the program will pause. To restart the  
program, simply resume exercising.  
Start the program.

To start the program, press the Start Program  
button or simply begin exercising. Each program  
is divided into several one-, two-, three-, and four-  
minute segments. One resistance setting and one  
pace setting are programmed for each segment.  
(The same resistance setting and/or pace setting  
may be programmed for two or more consecutive  
segments.)  
Watch your progress with the two displays.

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM  
Each heart rate program helps you to keep your heart  
rate near a certain percentage of your maximum heart  
rate during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is  
estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For  
example, if you are 30 years old, your maximum heart  
rate is 190.) Heart rate program 9 is designed to keep  
your heart rate between 50% and 85% of your maxi-  
mum heart rate while you exercise; heart rate pro-  
gram 10 is designed to keep your heart rate between  
50% and 80% of your maximum heart rate.  
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

To use a heart rate program, you must use the  
handgrip pulse sensor (refer to step 6 on page  
12) or the optional chest pulse sensor (refer to  
page 19). If you use the handgrip pulse sensor, it  
is not necessary to hold the handgrips continu-  
ously during the program. However, you should  
hold the handgrips frequently for the program to  
operate properly. Each time you hold the hand-  
grips, keep your hands on the metal contacts  
for at least 30 seconds.  
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.  
Make sure that the power cord is plugged in.

rate program consists of twenty, one-minute seg-  
ments. One resistance setting and one heart rate  
setting are programmed for each segment. (The  
same resistance setting and/or heart rate setting  
may be programmed for two or more consecutive  
segments.)  
Refer to step 2 on page 11.  
Select one of the heart rate programs.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the elliptical  
crosstrainer regularly. Replace any worn parts immedi-  
ately.  
Next, locate the Reed Switch (50). Turn the Flywheel  
(37) until the Magnet (55) is aligned with the Reed  
Switch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated  
Screw (72). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or  
away from the Magnet. Retighten the Screw. Rock the  
Flywheel forward and back just enough that the  
Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly. Repeat  
until the console displays correct feedback. When the  
Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the side  
shields and the pedal disks.  
For smooth  
operation of the  
elliptical  
Wheel  
crosstrainer, the  
incline ramp  
should be kept  
clean. Using a  
soft cloth and  
mild detergent,  
Ramp  
clean dust and  
Incline  
other residue  
from the incline  
ramp where the wheels make contact with it. Other  
parts of the elliptical crosstrainer can also be cleaned  
in this way. Keep liquids off the console. Never use  
abrasives or solvents.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
WARNING:  
1. Before beginning this or any exercise pro-  
gram, consult your physician. This is espe-  
cially important for persons over the age of  
35 or persons with pre-existing health  
problems.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-  
gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does  
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy.  
If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your  
exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest num-  
ber in your training zone as you exercise.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your  
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle num-  
ber in your training zone as you exercise.  
2. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.  
Various factors may affect the accuracy of  
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is  
intended only as an exercise aid in deter-  
mining heart rate trends in general.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exer-  
cise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen  
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the  
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,  
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic  
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until  
your heart rate is near the highest number in your  
training zone as you exercise.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your  
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition  
and adequate rest are essential for successful results.  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat  
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching  
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your  
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-  
ration for exercise.  
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-  
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training  
zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise  
program, do not keep your heart rate in your training  
zone for longer than 20 minutes.)  
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This  
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will  
help to prevent post-exercise problems.  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
on the bottom line of the chart (ages are rounded off  
to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers  
above your age. The three numbers are your “training  
zone.” The lower two numbers are recommended  
heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the  
recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three  
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest  
between workouts. After a few months of regular exer-  
cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week  
if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a  
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.  
Fat Burning  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-  
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
