cal exerciser only as described in this  
manual.  
10. 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.  
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure  
that all users of the elliptical exerciser are  
adequately informed of all precautions.

In addition, the console features two pulse programs  
that change the resistance of the pedals and help you  
to maintain a steady pedaling pace to keep your heart  
rate near a target heart rate setting while you exercise.  
When the power is turned on, the manual mode  
will be selected. If you have selected a program,  
reselect the manual mode by pressing the  
Program button repeatedly until no program indi-  
cators (see the drawing above) appear along the  
left side of the display.  
The console also offers four preset programs. Each  
program automatically changes the resistance of the  
pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your  
pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective  
workout.  
Change the resistance of the pedals as desired.  
As you pedal,  
To use the manual mode of the console, see the  
instructions at the right. To use a pulse program, see

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue  
to hold the handgrip pulse sensor for about 30  
seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand-  
grip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart  
rate for about 30 seconds. The display will then  
show your heart rate along with the other modes.

HOW TO USE A PULSE PROGRAM  
5
Pulse program 1 is 30 minutes long, and is  
divided into several time periods of different  
lengths. One target heart rate is programmed for  
each period. Pulse program 2 is sixty minutes  
long (you may choose to use only part of the pro-  
gram). The same target heart rate is programmed  
for the entire program.  
Pulse program 1 is designed to keep your heart rate  
within a set range during your workout. Pulse program  
2 is designed to keep your heart rate near a target  
heart rate setting that you select.  
Follow the steps below to use a pulse program.  
During the program, the console will regularly  
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate  
setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above  
the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the  
pedals will automatically increase or decrease to  
being your heart rate closer to the target heart rate  
setting. Note: If the resistance level is too high or  
too low, you can override it by pressing the  
Increase and Decrease buttons. However, when  
the console compares your heart rate to the tar-  
get heart rate setting, the resistance may auto-  
matically change.  
Turn on the console.

To select pulse  
program 1 or 2,  
press the Program  
button repeatedly  
until the number 1  
or 2 appears  
along the left side  
of the display.  
After the first minute of the program, the pace  
guide will help you to maintain a steady pedaling  
pace. When one of the two lower indicators  
lights, increase your pace; when one of the two  
upper indicators lights, decrease your pace.  
When the center indicator lights, maintain your  
current pace. Important: The pace guide is  
intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to  
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.  
Enter a target heart rate.

If pulse program 1 is selected, the maximum  
target heart rate setting for the program will flash  
in the display (see the drawing above). Press the  
Increase and Decrease buttons to change the  
setting, if desired (see EXERCISE INTENSITY  
on page 16). If the maximum target heart rate  
setting is increased or decreased, the intensity  
level of the entire program will increase or  
decrease.  
If pulse program 2 is selected, the target heart  
rate setting for the entire program will flash in the  
display. Press the Increase and Decrease buttons  
to change the setting, if desired (see EXERCISE  
INTENSITY on page 16).  
The display will show the time remaining in pulse  
program 1, or the elapsed time in pulse program  
2. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the  
program will pause and the time will flash in the  
display. To restart the program, simply resume  
pedaling.  
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse  
sensor continuously during a pulse program;  
however, you must hold the handgrip pulse sen-  
sor frequently. Each time you hold the hand-  
grip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the  
metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note:  
When you are not holding the handgrip pulse  
sensor, the letters PLS will appear in the display  
instead of your heart rate.  
Monitor your progress with the display.

period ends, the resistance level will automatical-  
ly change if a different resistance level is pro-  
grammed for the next period.  
See step 7 on page 12.  
During the program, the pace guide will prompt  
you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace.  
When one of the two lower indicators lights,  
increase your pace; when one of the two upper  
indicators lights, decrease your pace. When the  
center indicator lights, maintain your current  
pace. Important: The pace guide is intended  
only to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a  
pace that is comfortable for you.  
HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM  
Preset programs 3, 4, 5, and 6 automatically change  
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to  
increase or decrease your pedaling pace as they  
guide you through effective workouts. The profiles  
printed on the left side of the display show how the  
resistance level and the target pace will change dur-  
ing the preset programs.  
Follow the steps below to use a preset program.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser  
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.  
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING  
• Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip  
pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere  
with heart rate readings.  
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.  
• Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so  
may interfere with heart rate readings.  
BATTERY REPLACEMENT  
• For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the  
metal contacts for about 30 seconds.  
If the console displays become dim, the batteries  
should be replaced; most console problems are the  
result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on page  
7 for replacement instructions.  
• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sen-  
sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts  
can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alco-  
hol, abrasives, or chemicals.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
WARNING:  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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.  
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. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer-  
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your  
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
at the bottom 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 recommend-  
ed heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
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.  
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.
