Your Horizon Fitness elliptical is designed to be reliable and maintenance free.
However, if you do experience problems with your elliptical, please reference the
troubleshooting guide listed below.

PROBLEM:

There is no display on the console.

SOLUTION:

Remove the console and verify that the console cable is attached

properly, making sure that the cable is securely inserted into the console.

PROBLEM:

The elliptical trainer makes a squeaking or chirping noise.

SOLUTION:

Loosen all bolts attached during the assembly process, grease the

threads and tighten again.

PROBLEM:

The resistance levels seem to be incorrect, seeming too hard or too

easy.

SOLUTION:

Reset the console and allow the resistance to reset to the default

position. Restart the console and retry the resistance levels.

PROBLEM:

There is no heart rate reading

SOLUTION:

Remove the console and verify that the heart rate cables are

attached properly, making sure that the cables are securely inserted into the con-
sole.

SOLUTION:

If you are using the chest strap, there may be a poor connection

between the electrodes and the skin. Remoisten the electrodes with water.

SOLUTION:

The chest strap may not be positioned properly. Reposition the

chest strap.  It may be necessary to experiment with the fit and position of the
chest strap. 

SOLUTION:

Verify that the distance between the chest strap and the console is

not beyond the recommended range of 36 inches.

SOLUTION:

The battery in the chest strap may be dead. Take the chest strap

to a jewelry store or return to Horizon Fitness for a battery replacement.
