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

that all users of the elliptical crosstrainer
are adequately informed of all precautions.
12. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercis-
ing, stop immediately and cool down.
13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-
tical crosstrainer does not have a free
wheel; the pedals will continue to move until
the flywheel stops.
3. The elliptical crosstrainer is intended for
home use only. Do not use the elliptical
crosstrainer in a commercial, rental, or insti-
tutional setting.
4. Place the elliptical crosstrainer on a level
surface, with a mat beneath it to protect the

decal. Apply the decal in the location shown.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the elliptical crosstrainer at all times.
7. The elliptical crosstrainer should not be used
by persons weighing more than 250 pounds.
8. Wear appropriate exercise clothes when
using the elliptical crosstrainer. Always wear
athletic shoes for foot protection while exer-
cising.
9. Hold the left and right handlebars when
mounting, dismounting, or using the elliptical
crosstrainer.
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.
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 prob-

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-
als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note:
The crank arms (inside of the side shields) can be
turned in either direction. It is recommended that
you turn the crank arms in the same direction that
you pedal a bicycle; however, for variety, you can
turn the crank arms in the opposite direction.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS
The motion of
the pedals is
determined by
their positions on
the flex bars.
There are five
positions. To

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
4
5
It is not necessary to hold the handgrips continu-
ously during a Heart Rate program; however, you
must hold the handgrips frequently for the program
to operate properly. Each time you hold the
handgrips, keep your hands on the metal con-
tacts for at least 30 seconds.
Heart Rate program 1 is designed to keep your heart
rate between 65% and 85% 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 25 years old, your maximum heart
rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart Rate program 2
will keep your heart rate between 60% and 90% of
your maximum heart rate. Heart Rate program 3 will
keep your heart rate between 60% and 85% of your
maximum heart rate. Heart Rate program 4 will keep
your heart rate near a target heart rate that you select.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate programs 1, 2, and 3 consist of either
20 or 30 one-minute periods. One resistance level
and one target heart rate are programmed for
each period. (Note: The same resistance level
and/or target heart rate may be programmed for
two or more consecutive periods.) Heart Rate
program 4 is sixty minutes long (you may choose
to use only part of the program). The same resis-
tance level and target heart rate are programmed
for the entire program.
Follow the steps below to use a Heart Rate program.
Turn on the console.

When a Heart Rate program is selected, the word
AGE and the current age setting will appear in the
left display. If you have already entered your age,
press the Enter button. If you have not entered
your age, press the small + and – buttons to enter
your age, and then press the Enter button. Once
you have entered your age, it will be saved in
memory until the batteries are replaced.
If Heart Rate program 1, 2, or 3 is selected, go
to step 4. If Heart Rate program 4 is selected,
follow the instructions below.
After you have entered your age, the letters PLS
and the current target heart rate will appear in the
left display. If you do not wish to change the tar-
get heart rate, press the Enter button. If you wish
to change the target heart rate, press the small +
and – buttons, and then press the Enter button.
The target heart rate can be from 70 to 170 beats
per minute.

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 prob-
lems.
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.
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.
• 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 deter-
mining heart rate trends in general.
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.
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
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.
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.
