HOW TO USE THE IMAGE¨ 7.0 STEPPER
The stepper console offers a variety of features to help
you get the most from your exercise. When the
console is in the manual mode, the stepping speed
can be changed with a touch of a button. As you
exercise, four LED displays will provide continuous
exercise feedback. The console also offers six workout
programs. Each workout program is designed to
change the stepping speed automatically as it guides
you through an effective workout.
number of repetitions you have completed, divided
by 10. If the display shows 24, for example, you
have completed 240 repetitions.
5. REPS/MIN displayÑThis display shows your
current stepping speed, in repetitions per minute.
6. CALORIES displayÑThis display shows the total
number of calories you have burned and the number
of fat calories you have burned. The display will
change from one number to the other every seven
seconds. When the total number of calories is shown,
the TOTAL indicator will light. When the number of fat
calories is shown, the FAT indicator will light. (See
page 9 for an explanation of fat calories.)
DIAGRAM OF THE CONSOLE
1. Program ProfilesÑThese profiles show how the
stepping speed will change during the six workout
programs. During program 5 (Weight Loss 1), for
example, the stepping speed will gradually increase
during the first half of the program, and then
gradually decrease during the last half.
7. MODE buttonÑThis button selects the MANUAL
mode and the six workout programs.
2. Mode IndicatorsÑThese indicators show which
mode is selected (the manual mode or one of the
six workout programs).
8. START/PAUSE buttonÑThis button starts and
pauses workout programs.
9. REPS buttonÑThis button changes the stepping
speed by increasing or decreasing the stepping
resistance (see step 3 on page 7). Note: When the
maximum speed setting is reached, the MAX
indicator will light. When the minimum speed setting
is reached, the MIN indicator will light.
3. TIME displayÑWhen the manual mode is selected,
this display will show the elapsed time. When a
workout program is selected, this display shows the
time remaining in the program.

will have to increase your stepping speed to
prevent both pedals from sinking to the floor.
Note: When the stepping speed reaches the
fastest setting, the MAX indicator will light; when
the stepping speed reaches the slowest setting,
the MIN indicator will light.
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.) Plug the power cord into a 120-volt outlet. All
displays and indicators on the console will flash once;
the displays and various indicators will then light and a
tone will sound.
If you press the START/PAUSE button, or if you
stop exercising for five seconds or longer, a tone
will sound, the console will pause, and the TIME
display will begin to flash. To restart the console,
press the START/PAUSE button or simply begin
stepping.
Hold the handlebars and step onto the pedals. Begin
stepping, alternately depressing the right and left
pedals 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 speed until you can comfortably maintain a
continuous motion (see step 3 below).
Follow your progress with the four displays.

As you step, you can exercise your upper leg muscles
by keeping your feet flat on the pedals. To focus on

TROUBLE-SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Inspect and tighten all parts of the IMAGE¨ 7.0 stepper regularly. The stepper can be cleaned with a soft cloth
and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Keep liquids away from the console.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
For the console to display correct feedback the pedals must move
at least 5 inches vertically with each step. If the console displays
incorrect feedback, the Reed Switch (61) should be adjusted.
First, refer to assembly step 2 on page 4 and remove the ten
indicated screws from the Side Shields (55, 62). Next, carefully
slide the Side Shields off the stepper.

slightly, and retighten the Screw. Make sure that the Magnet will
not hit the Reed Switch when the Pedal is moved. Repeat until
the console displays correct feedback.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that a proper diet and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible
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 low end of your training zone as you
exercise. It may also be helpful to use workout program
3, 5, or 6 on the console (see pages 6, 7, and 8).
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, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic
exercise 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 middle of your training
zone. It may also be helpful to use workout program 1,
2, or 4 on the console (see pages 6, 7, and 8).
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or 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. For effective exercise, your heart rate
should be maintained at a level between 70% and 85%
of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is
known as your training zone. You can find your training
zone in the table below. Training zones are listed
according to age and physical condition.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your
heart rate, stop
exercising and
place two fingers
on your wrist as
shown. Take a six-

count, and multiply
the result by ten to

rate. (A six-second
count is used because your heart rate drops quickly
when you stop exercising.) If your heart rate is too
high, decrease the intensity of your exercise. If your
heart rate is too low, increase the intensity of your
exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include three important parts:
(1) a warm-up, (2) training zone exercise, and (3) a
cool-down.
Warming up
Warming up prepares the body for exercise by
increasing circulation, delivering more oxygen to the
muscles, and raising the body temperature. Begin
each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and
light exercise to warm up.
Burning Fat
To burn fat, you must exercise at a low intensity level
for a sustained period of time. During the first few

between workouts. After a few months of regular
exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each
week, if desired.
Cooling Down
Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.
Stretching after exercise develops flexibility and helps
prevent post-exercise problems. A proper cool-down
should leave you feeling relaxed and comfortably tired.
