QUICK STEPS TO WORKING OUT
1
Use the Heart Rate
features
.
Important:
When you begin
moving the foot pedals,
continue to hold onto a
handrail with one hand while
you answer the Setup
prompts with the other.
Important
: If BATTERY LOW appears on the display anytime during a workout, contact the staff
personnel. Pay attention to the words, PEDAL FASTER. The EFX is warning you that you need to
pedal faster to avoid disconnecting the battery, which is the power source for the EFX display.
1.
For your
Heart Rate
to appear on the display, you need to
wear a POLAR
®
chest strap.
CAUTION: Hold onto the stationary handrail while you
step into the foot pedals and whenever you reach out
to press the keypad.
2.
Begin pedaling and follow the display prompts. Make a
COURSE selection and enter your workout time, weight
and age.
Note
: To answer the Setup prompts, use the
▼▲
keys. Press
Enter
to select the information being displayed. See
Workout
Tips on page 37. The five available courses appear on the
label attached to the display console. Brief course descrip-
tions are also provided beginning on page 42.
To pause during your workout session, stop pedaling for a
few seconds. Be aware that if the optional battery recharger
is not attached, you have only thirty seconds before the
EFX shuts off. See
Pause, Cool Down and Exit Features.
3.
When you have completed a course that has a limited
duration, a five minute, cool-down period automatically
begins. Hold onto the handrail while the EFX reduces the
resistance by 20 percent. Note that you can always exit a
course prematurely using the
Reset
key.
Note:
Not all courses supply the cool-down period. See
Cooling Down After Your Workout on the next page.
4.
After you complete the five minute, cool-down period (or
exit a course prematurely using
Reset
), the
Workout
Summary
banner appears. If you wore a POLAR
®
chest
strap during your workout, a heart rate analysis follows the
banner and displays:
• the average heart rate during your workout
• the maximum heart rate during your workout
• the duration that your heart rate was in the Weight Loss
or Cardiovascular zones.
Workout statistics except TIME, STRIDES and CALORIES
reset to zero. (TIME shows the accumulated workout time
including warm-up and cool-down periods.)
5.
When you are finished reviewing your workout statistics,
stop pedaling. Hold on to the stationary handrails while
you carefully step down from the EFX.
Step into the foot
pedals and select a
course.

pedaling while reviewing
your workout statistics.
