Most problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and fol-

low the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, see the front cover of this manual.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

Inspect and properly tighten all external parts of the elliptical exerciser. Clean the elliptical exerciser with a small

amount of mild multi-purpose cleaner applied to a 100% cotton cloth. When cleaning the elliptical exerciser, pay

special attention to the track and wheels. Remove all debris from the track. Clean the pedal covers with a soft

nylon brush. Do not use acidic cleaners—doing so will void your warranty. Never spray any cleaner di-

rectly onto the elliptical exerciser.

TROUBLESHOOTING 

1. SYMPTOM: THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER IS NOT LEVEL

If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly during use, see HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXER-

CISER on page 6. 

2. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE DOES NOT DISPLAY THE DESIRED SYSTEM OF MEASUREMENT

The console can display data using the English system (miles and pounds) or the metric system (kilometers and

kilograms). To change the system of measurement, see step 7 on page 19. 

3. SYMPTOM: THE PULSE SENSOR DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see THE PULSE SENSOR on page 11.

4. SYMPTOM: THE PEDAL DISKS RUB AGAINST THE SIDE SHIELDS

If a pedal disk rubs against a side shield, loosen the side shield mounting screws and move the side shield

slightly until the pedal disk stops rubbing. Retighten the side shield mounting screws.

5. SYMPTOM: THE PEDAL WHEELS SQUEAK

If the pedal wheels squeak, use a 100% cotton cloth to remove debris from the track and the wheels. If the pedal

wheels continue to squeak, apply a light coat of silicone-based lubricant to the track.

6. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE TURNS OFF AS SOON AS THE USER STOPS PEDALING

If the console turns off as soon as the user stops pedaling, the battery pack may not be fully charged. The longer

your workouts are on the elliptical exerciser, the longer the battery pack will maintain a charge. If the symptom

continues, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual immediately.
