HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
Stand in front of the elliptical trainer, hold the handle-
bars firmly, and place one foot against one of the
wheels. Pull the handlebars until the elliptical trainer
can be moved on the front wheels, and carefully
move the elliptical trainer to the desired location.
Then, place one foot against a wheel and lower the
elliptical trainer.
Due to the size and weight of the
elliptical trainer, use extreme caution whilst mov-
ing and lowering it.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL TRAINER
To mount the elliptical trainer, firmly hold the pulse
sensor and carefully step onto the pedal that is in the
lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Push
the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
motion.
Note: The pedal disks can turn in either
direction. It is recommended that you turn the
pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow at
the right; however, for variety, you may turn the
pedal disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical trainer, allow the pedals to
come to a complete stop.
Note: The elliptical trainer
does not have a free wheel; the pedals will contin-
ue to move until the flywheel stops. When the ped-
als are stationary, step off the highest pedal first.
Then, step off the lowest pedal.
The handlebars are designed to add upper-body exer-
cise to your workouts. As you exercise, push and pull
the handlebars to work your arms, shoulders, and
back. To exercise only your lower body, hold the pulse
sensor as you exercise.

The easy-to-use console offers a selection of features
designed to help you get the most from your workouts.
Follow the instructions below to operate the console.
Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries.
See assembly step 3 on page 5 for battery instal-
lation instructions.
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
(see the drawing above to identify the On/Reset
button). Note: Moving the pedals is another way to
turn on the console.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of
the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped-
als by pressing the + and – buttons below the
large display. There are ten resistance levels—
level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the
buttons are pressed, it will take a few seconds for
the resistance to reach the selected setting.
Follow your progress with the small display
and the large display.
The small display will
show your pedaling pace,
in revolutions per minute
(RPM). The indicator bar
in the small display will
increase or decrease in
length as you increase or
decrease your pedaling
pace. Note: When you
use the handgrip pulse
sensor, the small display will show your heart
rate (see step 4 on page 10).
The upper sec-
tion of the large
display will
show the dis-
tance you have
pedaled and the
numbers of calories and fat calories you have
burned (see FAT BURNING on page 13 for an
explanation of fat calories). The display will
change from one number to the next every few
seconds.
