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 HOW TO CONTACT CUSTOMER CARE on page 2

of this manual.

WEEKLY MAINTENANCE

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

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

onto the elliptical trainer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. SYMPTOM: THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER IS NOT LEVEL

If the elliptical trainer rocks slightly during use, see HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER on

page 7.

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 (kilometres and

kilograms). To change the system of measurement, see step 7 on page 20.

3. SYMPTOM: THE PULSE SENSOR DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see THE PULSE SENSOR on page 12.

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 PEDALLING

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

the elliptical trainer is used, the longer the battery pack will maintain a charge. If the symptom continues, call

Customer Care immediately (see page 2).
