Starting a program
Quick Start
After the console powers up you may press the Start key to begin, this will initiate the Quick Start
mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero and the workload may be adjusted manually
by pressing the Up/Down buttons. Distance and Calories will accrue, starting from zero.
The Calorie window will switch between Calories and Watts every 5 seconds. The Calorie reading
shows total Calories burned and is an approximate number. The Watt reading indicates how much
work you are doing. If the Watt reading is 100, this means you are doing enough work to light a 100
watt light bulb.
The bottom left data window will switch between RPM and Speed every 5 seconds. RPM is your
actual pedal rotation speed, and the Speed readout is in MPH, indicating approximate road speed
as if pedaling a bicycle in 7
th
gear.
The Distance window shows distance traveled, based on pedal speed, in miles. The Pulse window
will display your heart rate in beats per minute if you are holding the heart rate hand sensors, or
wearing a chest strap transmitter.
Manual
Using the Up/Down keys, highlight the Manual icon at the top of the display and press Enter key.
The profile will be blinking and you may use the Up/Down keys to adjust the program work level
and then press Enter. The Time window will now be blinking. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust the
program Time and then press Enter. The Distance window will now be blinking and you can adjust
a target Distance using the Up/Down keys then press Enter. Calories will now be blinking, repeat
the same process as above to set, then press Enter. The Watt icon will be blinking. If you choose to
set the Watts then the machine will automatically adjust the workload to maintain continuous work.
What this means is that if you set the Watt to 100 the machine will try to keep you working at a rate
of work that equals 100 Watts (or working at a rate that will keep a 100 Watt light bulb burning).
Watts are determined by the amount of work you are doing. On the Elliptical this means the speed
you are pedaling at combined with the workload of the machine. In Watt mode, if you change your
speed the machine will automatically change the workload to maintain the same Watt level. If you
pedal faster the workload will decrease and if you pedal slower the workload increases.
After adjusting all the parameters, press Start to begin your workout.
Preset Programs
There are 12 preset programs to choose from. After power up, or reset, press the Up/Down keys to
highlight the Program icon. Press the Enter key to enter the program mode. The display will show
P1, for two seconds, then change to the P1 program profile. You may keep pressing the Up/Down
keys to scroll through the 12 programs. When you see a program you want, press the Enter key to
enter. At this point you may press start to begin the program with the default settings or you may
customize the program.
To customize the work level, press the Up key. You will see the profile increase in size. When the
work level is where you like it press the Enter key (If you do not want to customize the profile, just
press the Enter key to bypass).
The Time window will now be blinking. Use the Up and Down keys to adjust the workout time and
then press Enter.
The Distance window will now be blinking. Repeat the same process to set the distance to count
down, if desired, and press Enter.
The Calorie window will now be blinking. Repeat the same process then press Enter.
