HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER  
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD  
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending  
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent  
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.  
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in  
place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle out-  
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali-  
fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover  
is grounded before using an adapter.  
This product  
must be  
grounded.  
If it should  
malfunction  
or break  
Grounded Outlet Box  
Grounding Plug  
down,  
grounding  
provides a  
path of least  
resistance for  
electric  
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This prod-  
uct is equipped with a cord having an equipment-  
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the  
power cord into an appropriate outlet that is prop-  
erly installed and grounded in accordance with all  
local codes and ordinances. This product is for  
use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. Important: The  
elliptical exerciser is not compatible with GFCI-  
equipped outlets.  
Note: When the power cord is plugged in, the ellip-  
tical exerciser’s incline system may automatically  
calibrate itself. During the calibration process, two  
dashes (– –) will appear in the left display of the  
console and the ramp will move to the highest  
position and then return to the lowest position.  
The calibration process will last for one to two  
minutes.

EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER  
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars  
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.  
DANGER:  
Improper connection of  
the equipment-grounding conductor can result  
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check  
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if  
you are in doubt as to whether the product is  
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug  
provided with the product—if it will not fit the  
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qual-  
ified electrician.

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-  
als come to a complete stop. The elliptical exerciser  
does not have a free wheel; the pedals will contin-

als are stationary, step off the highest pedal first.  
Then, step off the lowest pedal.

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it before using the console.  
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
The console also features iFIT.com interactive technol-  
ogy. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-  
sonal trainer in your home. Using the included audio  
cable, you can connect the elliptical exerciser to your  
home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and  
play special iFIT.com CD and video programs (iFIT.com  
CDs and videocassettes are available separately).  
iFIT.com CD and video programs automatically control  
the resistance of the elliptical exerciser and prompt  
you to vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches  
you through every step of your workout. High-energy  
music provides added motivation. To purchase  
iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes, call toll-free  
1-888-963-4266.  
The advanced console offers a selection of features  
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and  
effective. When the manual mode of the console is  
selected, the resistance of the elliptical exerciser and  
the angle of the ramp can be changed with the touch  
of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide  
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure  
your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor. Note:  
For information about an optional chest pulse sen-  
sor, see page 21.  
The console also offers six resistance and pace pro-  
grams. Each program automatically changes the resis-  
tance of the elliptical exerciser and prompts you to  
increase or decrease your pace as it guides you  
through an effective workout.  
With the elliptical exerciser connected to your comput-  
er, you can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com  
and access programs directly from the internet.  
Explore www.iFIT.com for more information.  
In addition, the console features two heart rate pro-  
grams that automatically change the resistance of the  
elliptical exerciser and prompt you to vary your pace to  
keep your heart rate near a target level as you exer-  
cise.

When the power is  
turned on, the  
manual mode will  
be selected. To  
select a resistance  
and pace program,  
press the Program  
Select button repeatedly until a “P 1,” “P 2,” “P 3,”  
“P 4,” “P 5,” or “P 6” appears in the right display.  
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-  
ment of the program, both the Current Segment  
column and the column to the right will flash, a  
series of tones will sound, and all pace settings  
will move one column to the left. The pace setting  
for the second segment will then be shown in the  
flashing Current Segment column and the resis-  
tance of the elliptical exerciser will automatically  
change to the resistance setting for the second  
segment.  
When a resistance and pace program is selected,  
the matrix will show the first seven pace settings  
for the program. The left display will show how  
long the program will last.  
Press the Program Start button or begin  
pedaling to start the program.

Each program is divided into several time seg-  
ments of different lengths. One pace setting and  
one resistance setting are programmed for each  
segment. (The same pace setting and/or resis-  
tance setting may be programmed for two or more  
consecutive segments.)  
Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment  
column are lit after the pace settings have moved  
to the left, the pace settings will move downward  
so only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.  
The program will continue until the pace setting  
for the last segment is shown in the Current  
Segment column of the matrix and no time  
remains in the program.  
The pace setting  
for the first seg-  
ment will be  
shown in the flash-

resistance settings  
are not shown in the matrix.) The pace settings  
for the next several segments will be shown in the  
columns to the right.  
Note: During the program, you can override the  
resistance setting for the current segment, if  
desired, by pressing the Resistance buttons.  
However, when the next segment begins, the  
resistance will automatically change if a different  
resistance is programmed for the next segment. If  
you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will  
sound and the program will pause. To restart the  
program, simply resume pedaling.  
As you exercise, the Training Zone bar will help  
you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace

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 1 is designed to keep  
your heart rate between 50% and 80% of your maxi-  
mum heart rate while you exercise; heart rate pro-  
gram 2 is designed to keep your heart rate between  
50% and 85% of your maximum heart rate.  
Monitor your progress with the two displays.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the elliptical  
exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immedi-  
ately.  
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER  
Stand in front of the elliptical exerciser, hold the han-  
dlebars firmly, and place one foot against the ramp in  
the location shown below. Pull the handlebars until  
the elliptical exerciser can be moved on the front  
wheels, and carefully move the elliptical exerciser to  
the desired location. Then, place one foot against the  
ramp, and lower the elliptical exerciser. Due to the  
size and weight of the elliptical exerciser, use  
extreme caution while moving and lowering it.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
WARNING:  
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.  
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. (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  
near 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  
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.

WARNING:  
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-  
tions before using the elliptical exerciser.  
1. Read all instructions in this manual before  
using the elliptical exerciser.  
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.

to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-  
tical exerciser does not have a free wheel;  
the pedals will continue to move until the  
flywheel stops.

face, with a mat beneath it to protect the

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

by persons weighing more than 115 kg (250  
lbs.).

using the elliptical exerciser. Always wear  
athletic shoes for foot protection.

tical exerciser; do not arch your back.

ing, stop immediately and cool down.
