The right side of the
main display will
show the approxi-
mate numbers of
calories and fat calo-
ries 
you have burned
(see FAT BURNING on page 26). The display will
change from one number to the next every few
seconds, as shown by the indicators around the
display. Note: When you use the handgrip pulse
sensor or the chest pulse sensor, the display will
also show your heart rate.  

Note: The console
can display speed
and distance in
either miles or kilo-
meters. To find which
unit of measurement
is selected, you must
select the console’s user mode. Hold down the
Program Select button for about three seconds.
The letter “E” for English miles or the letter “M” for
metric kilometers will appear on the right side of
the main display. To change the unit of measure-
ment, press the Resistance 10 button. 

While the user mode is selected, press the
iFIT.com button. The main display will then show
the total number of hours that the elliptical exer-
ciser has been used. Press the iFIT.com button
again. The main display will then show the total
number of miles pedaled. To exit the user mode,
press the Program Select button again. 

Measure your heart rate if desired.

To use the chest pulse sensor, see page 9. To
use the handgrip pulse sensor, follow the instruc-
tions below. Note: If you wear the chest pulse
sensor and hold the handgrip pulse sensor at
the same time, the console will not display
your heart rate accurately.

If there are thin
sheets of plas-
tic on the
metal contacts
on the hand-
grip pulse sen-
sor, peel off
the plastic. 
To
measure your

heart rate, hold the contacts; your palms must be
resting on the upper contacts, and your fingers
must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid mov-
ing your hands.

When your pulse is
detected, the Heart
Rate indicator above
the right side of the
main display will light,
two dashes (– –) will
appear in the main
display, and then your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the
contacts for at least 15 seconds.

Note: If you continue to hold the contacts, the
main display will show your heart rate for up to
30 seconds. The main display will then show
your heart rate along with the other modes.

If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that
your hands are positioned as described. Be care-
ful not to move your hands excessively or to
squeeze the contacts too tightly. For optimal per-
formance, clean the contacts using a soft cloth;
never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.

Turn on the fan if desired.

To turn on the fan, press the Fan button. Pivot
the fan to the desired angle. To turn on the fan at
high speed, press the Fan button again. To turn
off the fan, press the Fan button a third time. 

When you are finished exercising, the
console will automatically turn off.

If the pedals are not moved for several seconds,
a tone will sound, the console will pause, and the
time will begin to flash in the main display.

If the pedals are not moved for about five min-
utes, the console will turn off and the main dis-
play will be reset.
