HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER  
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL  
EXERCISER  
To move the elliptical exerciser, stand in front of it,  
place one foot against one of the wheels, and firmly  
hold the upper end of the upright. Pull the upright for-  
ward until you can move the elliptical exerciser on the  
wheels. Carefully move the elliptical exerciser to the  
desired location and then lower it to the floor. To  
decrease the risk of injury, do not attempt to move  
the elliptical exerciser over an uneven surface.  
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the upper body  
arms and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest  
position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the  
pedals until they begin to move with a continuous  
motion.  
Note: The crank arms can turn in either direction.  
It is recommended that you turn the crank arms in  
the direction shown by the arrow below; however,  
for variety you can turn the crank arms in the  
opposite direction.  
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-  
als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical  
exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals  
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.  
When the pedals are stationary, step off the higher  
pedal first. Then, step off the lower pedal.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser  
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.  
until the console displays correct feedback. When the  
Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the side  
shields. Note: If you have questions as to which screw  
should be in which hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING  
B on page 27 and the PART LIST on page 24.  
To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and  
a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid  
damage to the console, keep liquids away from  
the console and keep the console out of direct  
sunlight.  
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT  
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,  
even when the resistance of the pedals is at the high-  
est setting, the Belt (46) may need to be adjusted.  
First, remove all the screws from both side shields;  
there are three sizes of screws in the side  
shields—note which size of screw you remove  
from each hole. Then, gently pry the side shields  
away from the frame.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your  
heart rate near the middle number in your training  
zone.  
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 problems.  
Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic  
exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts  
of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic  
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until  
your heart rate is near the highest number in your  
training zone.  
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 determin-  
ing heart rate trends in general.  
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE  
These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise  
program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a  
reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,  
proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for  
successful results.  
To measure your heart  
rate, exercise for at least  
four minutes. Then, stop  
exercising and place two  
fingers on your wrist as  
shown. Take a six-sec-  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
ond heartbeat count,  
and multiply the result  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-  
sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your  
heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.  
The chart below shows recommended heart rates for  
fat burning, maximum fat burning, and aerobic exer-  
cise.  
by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your six-  
second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140  
beats per minute. Note: If your exercise equipment  
includes a pulse sensor, you can use the pulse sensor  
to measure your heart rate.  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Warm-up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and  
light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temper-  
ature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for  
exercise.  
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-  
utes 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.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you  
exercise–never hold your breath.  
To find the proper intensity level, first find your age at  
the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the  
nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above  
your age define your “training zone.” The lowest num-  
ber is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number  
is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the  
highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
Cool-down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.  
Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and  
will help to prevent post-exercise problems.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-  
cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of  
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your  
body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. 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 number in your training  
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. Remember, the key to success is to  
make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your  
everyday life.

1. Toe Touch Stretch  
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from  
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach  
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,  
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of  
knees, and back.

counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:  
Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.  
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your  
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back  
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move  
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat  
3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles  
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles  
tendons, and ankles.
