1.2 SETUP

Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer.

WHERE TO PLACE THE LIFE FITNESS CROSS-TRAINER

Follow all safety instructions in Section 1.1 and move the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer to the location in which it will be used.

See Section 7 for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow 1 foot of clearance in front of the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer to

allow for movement of the pedal levers. It should be easy to mount the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer from the side.

HOW TO STABILIZE THE LIFE FITNESS CROSS-TRAINER

After placing the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it. Any slight rocking

indicates that the unit must be leveled. Check the stabilizing feet to determine which foot does not rest fully on the floor.

Rotate the foot counter-clockwise to lower it. Recheck the stability and adjust again as needed until the Life Fitness

Cross-Trainer is stable and no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment into position by tightening the jam nut against the

stabilizer bar with an open end 9/16 inch wrench.

CHECK FOR POWER

The console is powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by pressing the START key. The console

should light up, and the MESSAGE CENTER should display a prompt to set up a workout. If this does not occur, mount

the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer and begin pedaling. The console should then light up, making it possible to program a work-

out. Pedal for 10 to 20 minutes at 1.5 mph (2.4 kph) or faster during a workout to charge the battery. Afterwards, the pedal

action during workouts keeps the battery charged. If the console still does not light, contact Life Fitness Customer Support

Services (see page one of this manual for more information).

FITNESS AND ENTERTAINMENT NETWORKING

Two interchangeable network ports allow the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer to be connected to a fitness entertainment system

and/or a network, such as FitLinxx^TMinteractive fitness network.

•

Networking: The built-in networking ports allow the unit to exchange workout information with a fitness network

database.

•

Fitness Entertainment: The network connection enables the console to power a third-party receiver for use with

a service such as the Cardio Theater^®entertainment system or the BroadcastVision^TMentertainment system.

These ports are located on the back of the console and are enclosed by a removable cover. Any use of the ports for other

than their intended purpose could void the product warranty.

2.2 CONSOLE OVERLAY DESCRIPTIONS

A. WORKOUT PROFILE window: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of

intensity in a workout-in-progress. The height of the first column on the left side of the window is proportional to the

current level of intensity.

During a FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, or EXTREME HEART RATE work-

out, which requires the use of a Polar^®telemetry heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse system sensors, the WORK-

OUT PROFILE window displays a flashing heart shape to request the user’s heart rate signal. If the console does not

detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt “NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON SENSORS

OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP". If the console does not receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automati-

cally is converted to a MANUAL program.

B. MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a workout, it dis-

plays statistics about the progress of the workout:

•

Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the chest strap or grasping the Lifepulse system sen-

sors.

•

Distance: the total distance traveled in miles (or kilometers if enabled).

Speed: the pedaling speed or rate in miles per hour (or kilometers per hour if enabled).

Calories: the number of calories burned since beginning the workout.

If configured to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER displays any or all of these three values each time the intensity level

changes during the workout:

•

Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.

Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work.

METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a meta-

bolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest.

Note: The Watts display and the Calories per Hour display cannot be turned on at the same time.

C. ARROW keys: A pair of UP and DOWN arrows is located on either side of the TIME/LEVEL window. When setting up

a workout, use either set of arrows to change workout parameters displayed on the console, such as length of work-

out, weight, age, target heart rate, and intensity level. During a workout, pressing the ARROWS on the right (LEVEL)

side of the display changes the target heart rate for FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE IN-

TERVAL, and EXTREME HEART RATE workouts or the intensity level for other workouts.

Pressing the ARROWS on the left (TIME) side increases or decreases the workout duration. Pressing the arrows on

the right (LEVEL) side increases or decreases the intensity level.

Note: Whenever an arrow key is pressed during a workout, an increase (up arrow key) or decrease (down arrow key)

is made to the corresponding parameter (level). The number that appears reflects that change. For example, if the

user is at level 6 and presses the right up arrow key, the number 7 will appear, reflecting that the user has chosen a

new level. If the change is desired, press ENTER to accept. If the change is not desired, the user has ten seconds to

reset the level to the desired parameter, before the unit accepts the changed value and makes the appropriate adjust-

ments.

D. NUMERIC keypad: Use these keys to enter values, such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate, and in-

tensity level. While a workout is in progress, numeric keys can be used to set new intensity levels or change the target

heart rate in the FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, and EXTREME HEART

RATE and workouts. The ARROW keys have a similar function, except that they change workout parameters by sin-

gle increments.

E. WORKOUT SELECTION keys: Press any of these keys to select the program identified on the given key’s label.

These programs include: FAT BURN, CARDIO, RANDOM, MANUAL, ZONE TRAINING +, PERSONAL TRAINER,

and HILL PLUS.

F. QUICK START key: Press this key to begin a manual workout immediately, without having to select a workout pro-

gram. Once the workout is in progress, use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC KEYPAD to change the intensity level

or workout duration as desired.

G. ENTER WEIGHT key: Press this key to enter a user weight during a workout. Use the TIME ARROW keys or the

NUMERIC keypad to enter a weight value.

H. ENTER PIN key: Log on to the FitLinxx Interactive Fitness Network using a dedicated PIN Number. A FitLinxx Interac-

tive Fitness Network shall be supported through the CSAFE console port connector as a CSAFE Compatible Device.

I. AEROBICS MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode in which the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts

that vary the workload and emphasize different muscle groups during the workout. It can be used with any workout,

except for FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL or EXTREME HEART RATE.

J. REVERSE MODE: Press this key to activate a workout mode that alternates five minutes of forward motion with two

minutes of reverse motion. It can be used with any workout, except for the HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING+ work-

outs.

For more information about Aerobics Mode and Reverse Mode, see Selecting a Workout Mode in Section 4.2.

K. LEVEL / TIME WINDOW: This window displays the programmed intensity level and the time elapsed since the start of

the program.

L. START: Press this key to activate the console for programming a new workout. The activated console lights up and dis-

plays “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START”. If no key is pressed for 15 seconds and the user stops pedal-

ing, the console shuts down again.

Note: The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer’s AutoStart feature also activates the console when the user steps on the pedals

and begins pedaling.

M. COOL DOWN key: Workout programs end automatically in a Cool Down mode, which lowers the intensity level.

Press the COOL DOWN key at any desired point during a workout to go immediately into Cool Down mode. In this

phase of a workout the body begins to remove lactic acid and other accumulated by-products of exercise, which build

up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness. The console automatically adjusts each workout’s

Cool Down level according to the individual user’s performance.

N. ENTER key: Press this key to confirm entries of workout setup values, as displayed in the MESSAGE CENTER.

O. CLEAR key: Press this key, when programming a workout, to clear incorrect data, such as weight or age, before

pressing the ENTER key. Pressing CLEAR during a workout stops it immediately, at which point, the MESSAGE CEN-

TER displays a summary of the workout, including total time elapsed, total distance traveled, and total calories

burned. Pressing CLEAR a second time causes the MESSAGE CENTER to prompt the user for a new workout setup.

P. HEADPHONE JACK: Headphones must be plugged into the Cross-Trainer to access the sound for the iPod, TV, or

audio compatible entertainment device. The jack is not a user-replaceable feature. Contact Life Fitness Customer

Support Services for more information.

Q. iPOD HOLDER: Users can attach an iPod via a 30-pin connector. Use iPod/TV controls to play, or controls on the

iPod itself to select a song or video and begin playing.

Note: If a Life Fitness Attachable TV is not connected, users can view videos on the iPod.

R. iPOD / TV KEYPAD: The keys are used to provide control of the optional entertainment systems (such as a Life

Fitness Attachable TV, iPod, and Cardio Theater). These keys are NOT used for workout programs.

HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING

3.1 WHY HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING EXERCISE?

Research shows that maintaining a specific heart rate while exercising is the optimal way to monitor the intensity of a

workout and to achieve maximum results. That is the idea behind the Life Fitness Heart Rate Zone Training® approach to

exercise.

Zone Training identifies an exerciser's ideal heart rate range, or zone, for burning fat or increasing cardiovascular fitness.

The zone is a percentage of the theoretical maximum(HRmax), and its value depends on the workout. The maximal heart

rate formula is defined by the American College of Sports Medicine's "Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription",

8th Edition, 2010. HRmax equals to 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age.

HR Max = 206.9 - (0.67 * age)

The Life Fitness Cross -Trainer features exclusive workouts designed to take full advantage of the benefits of Heart Rate

Zone Training+ exercise:

• FAT BURN

• CARDIO

• HEART RATE HILL^TM

• HEART RATE INTERVAL^TM

• EXTREME HEART RATE^TM

Each workout offers different benefits, as discussed in Section 4 The Workouts.

Note: Consulting a fitness trainer is recommended for defining specific fitness goals and designing a workout program.

To change the target heart rate during a workout, use the LEVEL arrow keys.

To switch between programs during a workout, use the WORKOUT SELECTION keys.

The Heart Rate Zone Training® workout programs measure heart rate. Wear the optional Polar® telemetry heart rate

chest strap, or grip the Lifepulse^TMsensors, to enable the Cross-Trainer’s on-board computer to monitor the heart rate

during a workout. The computer automatically adjusts the resistance level to maintain the target heart rate based on the

actual heart rate.

3.2 HEART RATE MONITORING

THE LIFEPULSE^TMDIGITAL HEART RATE MONITORING SYSTEM

The patented Lifepulse system sensors are the built-in heart rate monitoring system on the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer. For

the most accurate reading possible, during a workout:

•

Grasp the sensors (A) firmly.

Hold each sensors at the vertical midpoint.

Keep hands steady and in place.

The console displays the heart rate within 10 to 40 seconds after the user grasps the sensors. The following factors may

affect a Lifepulse reading: incorrect hand placement on the sensors, upper body activity, lotion or dirt on hands, and ex-

cessive or insufficient pressure used when gripping the sensors.

THE OPTIONAL POLAR TELEMETRY HEART RATE CHEST STRAP

The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer is equipped with Polar® telemetry, a heart rate monitoring system in which electrodes,

pressed against the skin, transfer heart rate signals to the console. These electrodes are attached to a Polar telemetry

heart rate chest strap that the user wears during the workout. The Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap is optional. Con-

tact Life Fitness Customer Support Services to order.

See the diagram below for correct positioning of the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap. The electrodes (A), which are

the two grooved surfaces on the underside of the strap, must remain wet to transmit accurately the electrical impulses of

the heart back to the receiver. Moisten the electrodes. Then, secure the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap as high

under the chest muscles as possible. The strap should be snug, but comfortable enough to allow for normal breathing.

The transmitter strap delivers an optimal heart rate reading when the electrodes are in direct contact with bare skin. How-

ever, it functions properly through a thin layer of wet clothing.

If it becomes necessary to re-moisten the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap electrodes, grasp the center of the strap,

pull it away from the chest to expose the two electrodes, and re-moisten them.

Note: If the Lifepulse system sensors are grasped while the chest strap is worn, and if the signals from the sensors are

valid, the on-board computer uses the sensor signals for calculating the heart rate instead of those transmitted with the

Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap.

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising. After the QUICK START key is pressed, a constant-level

workout begins. The intensity level does not change automatically.

MANUAL is a constant effort workout in which the user can change the intensity level at any time.

RANDOM is an interval training workout of constantly changing intensity levels that occur in no regular pattern or

progression.

FAT BURN is a low-intensity workout for burning a higher percentage of calories from fat. The user wears a Polar

telemetry heart rate chest strap, or grasps the Lifepulse^TMsensors continuously. The program adjusts the intensity

level, based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 65% of the theoretical maximum.

CARDIO is a higher intensity workout for more fit users, maximizing cardiovascular benefits and total calories burned.

The user wears a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grasps the Lifepulse^TMsensors continuously. The program

adjusts the intensity level, based on the actual heart rate, to maintain the rate at 80% of the theoretical maximum.

The following workouts are accessed by pressing the HILL PLUS key.

HILL is an interval training workout. Intervals are periods of intense aerobic exercise separated by regular periods

of lower-intensity exercise.

AROUND THE WORLD is an interval-training workout in which the hills resemble scenes of various geographical

areas.

CASCADES is a two-peak workout in which intensity levels gradually increase and decrease.

FOOTHILLS is a rolling hill workout with low intensity levels.

using the NUMERIC KEYPAD enter the correct digits of the ID number and press ENTER.

SELECTING AND USING QUICK START

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising and bypasses the steps of selecting a specific workout program. At

the MESSAGE CENTER prompt to select a workout, press the QUICK START key. The workout begins at an intensity

level that remains the same unless manually changed.

SELECTING A WORKOUT

For MANUAL, FAT BURN, CARDIO, and RANDOM: When prompted to select a workout, press the key labeled with the

name of the desired workout.

For HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, and EXTREME HEART RATE: When prompted by the MESSAGE

CENTER to select a workout, press the ZONE TRAINING+ key. The MESSAGE CENTER then displays the name of one

of the zone training workouts. Press ENTER to select the displayed workout or continue to press the ZONE TRAINING+

key to display each of the other options. Press ENTER to select the desired workout.

For CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE and CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS: When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a

workout, press the PERSONAL TRAINER key. The MESSAGE CENTER displays the name a workout. Press ENTER to

select the displayed workout or continue to press the PERSONAL TRAINER key to display each of the other options.

Press ENTER to select the desired workout.

For HILL, AROUND THE WORLD, FOOTHILLS, INTERVAL, KILIMANJARO, CASCADES, and SPEED TRAINING:

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a workout, press the HILL PLUS key. The MESSAGE CENTER

then displays the name of the one of these workouts. Press ENTER to select the displayed workout or continue to press

the HILL PLUS key to display each of the other options. Press ENTER to select the desired program.

ENTERING WEIGHT

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter weight, use the ARROW keys to increase or decrease the displayed

weight to the correct value (or key in the correct value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER. The default

weight is 150 pounds or 68 kilograms. The on-board computer calculates the number and rate of calories burned using

the entered weight as well as the pedaling speed and resistance level.

ENTERING AGE

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter age, use the ARROW KEYS to increase or decrease the displayed

age to the correct value (or key in the correct value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER.

Life Fitness Cross-Trainer workout programs that set a target heart rate zone first calculate the user’s theoretical maxi-

mum heart rate. The HRmax equals 206.9 minus the total of 0.67 multiplied by a person’s age. The programs then calcu-

late the target zone as a percentage of the theoretical maximum.

ENTERING TIME

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to enter a time, use the ARROW keys to increase or decrease the displayed

time to the desired value (or key in the desired value with the NUMERIC KEYPAD) and press ENTER.

SELECTING AND ADJUSTING THE RESISTANCE LEVEL

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER, use the ARROW keys to increase or decrease the displayed intensity level

or target heart rate to the desired value (or key in the desired value with the NUMERIC keypad) and press ENTER. Adjust

the level as needed or desired during the workout.

•

Resistance level: The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer provides a selection of 25 resistance levels. The resistance

level appears in the WORKOUT PROFILE window as rows of lights arranged in columns. Selecting a low intensity

level at first is recommended. As physical conditioning improves, the levels can increase.

•

Target heart rate: Programs that calculate a target heart rate base this number on the age of the user and the

type of workout. The user accepts or adjusts the rate when setting up the workout. During the workout itself, the

program reads the heart rate, which is transmitted via the heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse system sensors;

it uses this data to adjust the resistance. Manually raising the rate increases the intensity of the cardiovascular ex-

ercise.

SELECTING A GOAL TYPE

Workouts can be programmed to target certain type of goals:

•

Calories

Distance

Time in zone

The Calories Goal feature is designed to promote weight loss and weight control. The user sets a calorie goal during the

workout setup. Once the goal is met, the workout automatically goes into a Cool Down Phase and ends afterward. To use

this feature:

1. Press the PERSONAL TRAINER key when prompted to select a workout.

2. Continue to press the PERSONAL TRAINER key until the MESSAGE CENTER displays “CALORIES GOAL”.

Then press ENTER.

3. Enter the desired calorie goal value.

4. Select a workout.

5. Run through the set-up steps for the selected workout.

6. Begin the workout.

The Distance Goal feature is designed to build endurance. The user sets a distance goal during the workout setup. Once

the goal is met, the workout automatically goes into a Cool Down Phase and ends afterward. To use this feature:

1. Press the PERSONAL TRAINER key when prompted to select a workout.

The TIME IN ZONE GOAL program enhances FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL,

and EXTREME HEART RATE workouts by setting a certain duration within the target zone as a workout goal. The pro-

gram automatically alters the resistance to maintain a pace that will meet that objective within that duration. Once the ob-

jective is met, the workout automatically goes into a Cool Down Phase. To use the Time In Zone Goal feature:

1. Press the ZONE TRAINING+ key when prompted to select a workout

2. Continue to press the ZONE TRAINING+ key until the MESSAGE CENTER displays “TIME IN ZONE GOAL”. Then

press ENTER.

3. Enter weight.

4. Select the duration for staying within the zone.

5. Select a FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, or EXTREME HEART RATE work-

out.

6. Enter age.

7. Accept or change the target heart rate displayed by the MESSAGE CENTER.

8. Begin the workout.

SELECTING A WORKOUT MODE

Two workout mode options on the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer feature alternate ways to vary workouts.

•

Aerobics Mode: This workout mode simulates the experience of working out with a trainer. Throughout the

workout, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to vary the workload and emphasize different muscle

groups, such as upper- and lower-body. This feature can be used with any workout (except for FAT BURN, CAR-

DIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL or EXTREME HEART RATE). To select it, press the AERO-

BICS MODE key.

•

Reverse Mode: This workout mode continuously alternates five minutes of forward motion with two minutes of

reverse motion, to exercise different leg muscles. This feature can be used with any workout (except for FAT

BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL or EXTREME HEART RATE). To select it, press

the REVERSE MODE key.

SWITCHING WORKOUTS “ON-THE-FLY”

It is possible, during a workout, to switch to another workout program. After a switch, the console retains all the progress

information about the workout since its beginning. To change workouts “on the fly,” simply press the key for the desired

new workout. This feature is available for all workouts except for AROUND THE WORLD, KILIMANJARO, INTERVAL,

CASCADES, SPEED TRAINING, FOOTHILLS, and PERSONAL TRAINER workouts.

PAUSING WORKOUTS

To pause a workout, simply stop pedaling. To continue the workout, resume pedaling. The pause duration lasts 60 sec-

onds, after which the console automatically shuts down.

ENDING WORKOUTS EARLY

To end a workout before the pre-set duration expires, press CLEAR once. The MESSAGE CENTER then displays a workout

summary, which includes the distance travelled, the total calories burned, and other statistics. Press CLEAR a second time

and the MESSAGE CENTER displays “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START” for a new workout.

4.3 WORKOUT DESCRIPTIONS

QUICK START

QUICK START is the fastest way to begin exercising and bypasses the steps of selecting a specific workout program. The

intensity level for the workout is set automatically and remains the same unless manually changed. To change the level,

use the LEVEL arrow keys or use the NUMERIC KEYPAD to enter a higher or lower level number.

MANUAL

The MANUAL program sets an intensity level that does not change automatically. While the workout is in progress, increase

or lower the intensity level as desired using the ARROW keys.

RANDOM

The RANDOM program creates a terrain of hills and valleys that varies with each workout. More than one million different

patterns are possible.

FAT BURN

The FAT BURN workout is designed to maintain a user’s heart rate at 65% of the theoretical maximum(HRmax) for opti-

mal results. Throughout the workout, the user wears a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grasps the Lifepulse^TM

sensors. If the user is not wearing a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap, the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW displays a

heart shape, and the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to grasp the sensors. The console continuously monitors

and displays the heart rate, adjusting the intensity level of the Cross-Trainer to reach and maintain the target. This system

eliminates over-training and under-training, and it maximizes the aerobic benefits of exercise by using the body's fat

stores for fuel.

CARDIO

The CARDIO workout is virtually identical to FAT BURN, however the target heart rate is calculated at 80% of the theoret-

ical maximum (HRmax). The higher target promotes cardiovascular improvement by placing a heavier workload on the

heart muscle.

HILL

The Life Fitness-patented HILL workout offers a variety of configurations for interval training. Intervals are periods of in-

tense cardiovascular exercise separated by regular periods of lower-intensity exercise. The WORKOUT PROFILE window

represents these high and low intervals as columns of illuminated LEDs, which together have the appearance of hills and

valleys. The computerized interval training workout has been scientifically demonstrated to promote greater cardiorespira-

tory improvement than steady-pace training.

The HILL workout goes through four phases, each marked by different intensity levels. The WORKOUT PROFILE window

displays the progress of these phases. As noted in the descriptions below, the heart rate should be measured at two

stages in the workout to gauge its effectiveness. Wear the Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or continuously grip the

Lifepulse^TMhandles. The MESSAGE CENTER does not display a request for a heart rate measurement, as it does with

CARDIO, FAT BURN and the HEART RATE ZONE TRAINING programs.

1. Warm-up is a phase of low, gradually rising resistance, which brings the heart rate into the lower end of the target

zone and increases respiration and blood flow to working muscles.

2. Plateau increases the intensity slightly and keeps it steady, to bring the heart rate to the low end of the target zone.

Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.

3. Interval Training is a series of increasingly steeper hills alternating with valleys or stints of recovery. The heart rate

should rise to the high end of the target zone. Check the heart rate at the end of this phase.

4. Cool Down is a low-intensity phase that allows the body to begin removing lactic acid and other exercise by-products

which build up in muscles and contribute to soreness.

Each column, as seen in the WORKOUT PROFILE WINDOW and the chart above, represents one interval. The overall

duration of the workout determines the length of each interval. Each workout is made up of 20 intervals, so the duration of

each interval is equal to the duration of the entire workout divided by 20.

1 to 9 minutes: A workout with a duration of less than 10 minutes is insufficient for the HILL program to complete all four

phases adequately. The program therefore condenses a workout of this duration at various stages.

10 to 19 minutes: The interval durations initially are set at 30 seconds for a 10-minute workout. For every minute over 10,

each interval increases by three seconds. A 15-minute workout consists of 20 intervals at 45 seconds each.

20 to 99 minutes: All intervals last 60 seconds. If the user adds minutes to the pre-set duration while the workout is in

progress, the program adds hills and valleys that are identical to the first eight intervals of the Interval Training phase. This

pattern repeats until the workout is completed.

HEART RATE HILL

This program combines the standard HILL workout profile with the concept of Heart Rate Zone Training. The default tar-

get heart rate is calculated as 80% of the theoretical maximum(HRmax), but the user can adjust the target rate during the

workout setup. All hills and valleys are percentages of HRmax. The workout consists of three hills that target three heart

rate goals:

•

The first hill brings the heart rate to 70% of HRmax.

The second hill increases the rate to 75% of HRmax.

The third hill matches the Target Heart Rate bringing the heart rate to 80% of HRmax.

The valley is always defined as 65% of HRmax.

After a standard three-minute warm-up, the workout progresses toward the first hill and heart rate goal. Once the user

reaches 70% of HRmax, the hill continues for one minute. When the minute expires, the level decreases into a valley.

Once the user's heart rate falls to 65% of HRmax, the valley continues for one minute, then the next hill begins with its

corresponding heart rate goal. After the user completes the third hill/valley pair, the program returns to the first hill and re-

peats the cycle as long as the duration allows. At the end of the duration, the workout goes into a cool down phase. If the

heart rate goes above the theoretical maximum for more than 45 seconds, the Cross-Trainer automatically goes into

pause mode. The program does not proceed to a new heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

HEART RATE INTERVAL

This program also combines the standard HILL workout profile with the concept of Heart Rate Zone Training. The default

target heart rate is calculated as 80% of the theoretical maximum(HRmax), but the user can adjust the target rate during

the workout setup. The workout alternates between a hill, which brings the heart rate up to the target rate of 80% of

HRmax, and a valley which brings the heart rate down to 65% of HRmax. After a standard three-minute warm-up, the

workout progresses toward the first hill and heart rate goal. Once the goal is reached, the hill continues for three minutes,

then the level decreases into a valley. Once the 65% of HRmax goal is reached, the valley continues for three minutes,

after which the next hill begins. The user's fitness level determines the number of hills and valleys encountered within the

duration. At the end of the duration, the workout goes into a cool down phase. If the heart rate goes above the theoretical

maximum for more then 45 seconds, the Cross-Trainer automatically goes into pause mode. The program does not pro-

ceed to a new heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

EXTREME HEART RATE

This intense, varied workout is designed to help more experienced users to break through fitness improvement plateaus.

The workout alternates between two target heart rates as quickly as possible. The effect is similar to that of running

sprints. The user must wear a Polar telemetry heart rate chest strap or grip the Lifepulse^TMsensors throughout the work-

out.

When setting up the workout, the user enters a target heart rate. After a standard three-minute warm-up, the intensity in-

creases, until the user reaches the target heart rate goal of 85% of the theoretical maximum(HRmax). That target rate is

maintained for a stabilizing period. Then, the intensity decreases. When the heart rate falls to the 65% of HRmax goal, it

is maintained there for a stabilizing period. The program repeats the alternating intensity levels, continuing this pattern

throughout the duration. The program does not proceed to a new heart rate goal until the user reaches the current goal.

SIX PRE-SET WORKOUTS

AROUND THE WORLD, CASCADES, FOOTHILLS, INTERVAL, KILIMANJARO, and SPEED TRAINING are variations

of the HILL workout. These workouts cannot be changed “on the fly.”

AROUND THE WORLD is an interval-training workout in which the hills resemble scenes of various geographical areas.

CASCADES is a two-peak workout in which intensity levels gradually increase and decrease.

FOOTHILLS is a rolling hill workout with low intensity levels.

INTERVAL is a HILL workout in which intensity levels rise and fall. The higher levels gradually incline toward a peak and

then gradually decline.

KILIMANJARO is a HILL workout in which the intensity levels gradually incline toward one ultimate peak and then grad-

ually decline.

SPEED TRAINING is a HILL workout in which the intensity level alternates between high and low levels very quickly to

simulate a typical speed training workout.

CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS

During this workout, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to emphasize different muscle groups. To emphasize

upper-body muscles, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to focus on pushing and pulling the moving arms at vari-

ous times. To emphasize lower-body muscles, the MESSAGE CENTER displays prompts to rest the hands on the station-

ary handlebar, thus forcing the legs to do all the work. The program also alternates between forward and reverse motion

as well as different speeds.

Ten seconds after prompting the user to change pedaling direction, the workout applies “braking resistance,” that is, a

high resistance level that essentially forces the user to stop pedaling. Once the user stops pedaling, the workout resumes

the normal resistance level. The actual level of braking resistance depends on the user’s pedaling speed. If the user is

pedaling at a rate equal to, or faster than 6.2 mph (10.0 kph), the workout applies the maximum level of braking resist-

ance. If the user is pedaling at a speed below 6.2 mph (10.0 kph), the workout applies 92% of the maximum.

CROSS-TRAIN AEROBICS is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with a variable-resis-

tance-level workout, the user can start any workout (except for FAT BURN and CARDIO) and then press the AEROBICS

MODE key.

CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE

This workout features alternating periods of pedaling forward and pedaling backwards. If the user chooses a workout du-

ration 14 minutes or above, the unit displays alternating prompts to pedal forward for five minutes and then backward for

two minutes. If the user selects a goal of 13 minutes or below, the display prompts the user to pedal forward for two min-

utes and then backward for one minute. If the user selects a goal other than time (distance or calorie), the program uses

the default setting of prompting forward motion for five minutes and reverse for two minutes.

This feature varies the emphasis on different leg muscles. Ten seconds after prompting the user to change pedaling direc-

tion, the workout applies “braking resistance,” that is, a high resistance level that essentially forces the user to stop pedal-

ing. Once the user stops pedaling, the workout resumes the normal resistance level. The actual level of braking resistance

depends on the user’s pedaling SPEED. If the user is pedaling at a rate equal to, or faster than, 6.2 mph (10.0 kph), the

workout applies the maximum level of braking resistance. If the user is pedaling at a speed below 6.2 mph (10.0 kph), the

workout applies 92% of the maximum.

CROSS-TRAIN REVERSE is a constant-resistance workout. However, for a similar experience with a variable-resistance-

level workout, the user can start any workout (except for FAT BURN and CARDIO) and then press the REVERSE MODE

key.

FIT TEST

The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer Fit Test program is another exclusive feature of this versatile Cross-Trainer. The Fit Test

workout estimates cardiovascular fitness and can be used to monitor improvements in endurance every four to six weeks.

The user must grasp the Lifepulse hand sensors when prompted or wear a heart rate chest strap, as the test score calcu-

lation is based on a heart rate reading. The workout duration will be five minutes at the chosen resistance level. Immedi-

ately afterward, the console will take the user's heart rate reading, calculate a fitness score, and display the score in the

MESSAGE CENTER.

The Fit Test is considered to be a submax VO (volume of oxygen) test. It gauges how well the heart supplies oxygenated

blood to the exercising muscles, and how efficiently those muscles receive oxygen from the blood. Physicians and exer-

cise physiologists generally regard this test as a good measure of aerobic capacity.

To set up the Fit Test:

•

Begin pedaling.

Press the PERSONAL TRAINER button repeatedly until the FIT TEST option appears in the message center.

Press ENTER to select the FIT TEST option.

•

The message center will prompt for a user weight (ENTER WEIGHT). Use the NUMERIC KEYS or UP/DOWN

ARROW KEYS to input your weight. Press ENTER to accept the weight.

The message center will next prompt for a user age (ENTER AGE). Use the NUMERIC KEYS or UP/DOWN

ARROW KEYS to input your age. Press ENTER to accept the age.

The message center will next prompt for a user gender (SELECT GENDER). Using the UP/DOWN ARROW

KEYS, select a gender. Press ENTER to accept the gender selection.

The message center will next prompt for a workout level (ENTER LEVEL). Consult the following recommended fit

test level chart for an appropriate effort level based on your age, gender and activity level. Use the NUMERIC

KEYS or UP/DOWN ARROW KEYS to enter the corresponding level.

•l As the test continues, a message will prompt the user to maintain a pedaling rate between 50-60 rpm (equivalent

to 4.2-5.5 mph). The user must maintain this rate throughout the 5-minute test duration. After 16 seconds, if 50-60

rpm is not maintained, the fit test will automatically terminate.

After the five-minute FIT TEST is completed, a FIT TEST score will be displayed.

If you make an error when entering any Fit Test data, you can correct it by pressing CLEAR, inputting the correct informa-

tion and pressing ENTER.

It is important for you to take the Fit Test under similar circumstances each time. Your heart rate is dependent on many

factors, including:

•

amount of sleep the previous night (at least seven hours is recommended)

time of day

time you last ate (two to four hours after the last meal is recommended)

time since you last drank a liquid containing caffeine or alcohol, or smoked a cigarette (at least four hours is rec-

ommended)

•

time since you last exercised (at least six hours is recommended)

For the most accurate Fit Test results, you should perform the Fit Test on three consecutive days and average the three

scores.

Note: To receive a proper Fit Test score, the work done must be within a training heart rate zone that is 60% to 85% of the

theoretical maximum heart rate (HRmax). This program requires a constant exertion for accuracy, so it will not be allowed

to resume if paused. This program will control level. Manual adjustment of level is not permitted.

4.4 PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS

Using the console, fitness club managers and other authorized personnel can create up to six custom workouts for the

Life Fitness Cross-Trainer. Options include custom interval heart rate and hill workouts.

Interval Heart Rate: The trainer can design a workout that sets a different target heart rate for each interval and adjusts

the resistance to the user's heart rate.

Hill: The trainer can create a custom hill workout that sets a different intensity level for each interval.

USING PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS

Once PERSONAL TRAINER workouts are created, users can access them with the PERSONAL TRAINER key. Each

custom workout is identified by a numeral, from 1 to 6. To select these workouts, press the PERSONAL TRAINER key.

When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER, press the number corresponding to the desired workout using the NU-

MERIC keypad. Then press ENTER and begin the workout.

CREATING A PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUT

When the console is activated, hold down the COOL DOWN button and press the PERSONAL TRAINER button simulta-

neously.

Using the ARROW keys, scroll to, and select, the “PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUT ENTRY” option and press ENTER.

(If the alternate option, “ERASE PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS”, is selected, the computer deletes setup information

for all PERSONAL TRAINER workouts and the MESSAGE CENTER displays "PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUTS

ERASED". Then the MESSAGE CENTER displays "PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUT ENTRY").

Select a number, from 1 to 6, to identify the new workout. Use the NUMERIC keypad or the ARROW keys. Then press

ENTER.

If a PERSONAL TRAINER workout already has been created for that number, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt

to either modify the workout or proceed to another number. Pressing the CLEAR key overwrites the previously created

workout, making it possible to create a new workout for that number. Pressing ENTER bypasses the number and pro-

ceeds to another number.

If a PERSONAL TRAINER workout has not been created for a selected number, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the

prompt, "BEGIN PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUT CREATION".

The MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to enter a duration time for the entire workout. Using the NUMERIC keypad,

enter a duration and press ENTER.

The MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to select the workout type. Options are “TARGET HEART RATE PERCENT-

AGE” or “LEVEL”. The latter type is for custom hill workouts. Use the ARROW keys to toggle between the options, and

press ENTER to select one of them.

The MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to select a target heart rate or an intensity level for the first interval, depend-

ing on the type of workout chosen in an earlier step. Use the ARROW keys or the NUMERIC keypad. A PERSONAL

TRAINER workout consists of 30 intervals, so the length of each interval is equal to the workout duration value divided by

30. After entering the value, press ENTER. Repeat this set of steps for each of the following 29 intervals. To keep the pre-

ceding value for the current interval, simply press ENTER. At the end of this setup, the MESSAGE CENTER displays

“PERSONAL TRAINER WORKOUT COMPLETED”. The new PERSONAL TRAINER workout is ready to use.

Press the ENTER key to set up another workout. OR

Press the CLEAR key. The MESSAGE CENTER will display “SELECT WORKOUT OR PRESS QUICK START.”

4.5 LOGGING ON TO THE NETWORK

When the Cross-Trainer is connected to a network, the MESSAGE CENTER displays a prompt to log on with a personal

ID number. Press ENTER PIN, then using the NUMERIC KEYPAD enter the correct digits of the ID number and press

ENTER.

SERVICE AND TECHNICAL DATA

6.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE TIPS

The Life Fitness Cross-Trainer is backed by the engineering excellence and reliability of Life Fitness and is one of the

most rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today. Commercial Life Fitness products are

among the most popular of aerobic trainers in health clubs, colleges and military facilities the world over.

Note: Safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear. Keep

the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are subject to

wear, as outlined below.

REMARQUE: pour conserver un matériel sûr, il convient de l'inspecter régulièrement afin de déceler tout signe d'usure

ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pièces défectueuses n'ont pas été réparées ou remplacées.

Portez une attention toute particulière aux pièces qui s'usent, comme indiqué ci-dessous..

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer operating at peak performance:

•

Locate the Life Fitness Cross-Trainer in a cool, dry place.

Clean the top surface of the pedals regularly.

Keep the display console free of fingerprints and salt build-up caused by sweat.

Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces with an approved or compatible cleaner (see Life Fitness Ap-

proved Cleaners) and a soft cotton cloth.

•

Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the finger to press the selec-

tion buttons on the console.

Clean the housing and moving arms thoroughly on a regular basis.

LIFE FITNESS APPROVED CLEANERS

Two preferred cleaners have been approved by Life Fitness reliability experts: PureGreen 24 and Gym Wipes. Both clean-

ers will safely and effectively remove dirt, grime and sweat from equipment. PureGreen 24 and the Antibacterial Force for-

mula of Gym Wipes are both disinfectants that are effective against MRSA and H1N1.

PureGreen 24 is available in a spray which is convenient for gym staff to use. Apply the spray to a microfiber cloth and

wipe down the equipment. Use PureGreen 24 on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes

and at least 10 minutes for fungus and viral control.

Gym Wipes are large, durable pre-moistened wipes to use on the equipment before and after workouts. Use Gym Wipes

on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes.

Contact Customer Support Services to order these cleaners (1-800-351-3737 or email: [email protected]).

faces. Use a soft cotton cloth only. Apply the cleaner to the cotton cloth before cleaning. DO NOT use ammonia or acid

based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT use paper towels. DO NOT apply cleaners directly to the equip-

ment surfaces.
