The right side
of the
main display will show
the approximate num-
bers of
calories
and
fat
calories
you have
burned (see Burning
Fat on page 27). 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 hand-
grip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor, the
display will also show your heart rate.
Note: The console can
display speed and dis-
tance in either miles or
kilometers. To find
which unit of measure-
ment is selected, you
must select the con-
sole’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 measurement, 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 exercis-
er 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.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
To use the chest pulse sensor, see page 11. 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 plastic
on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, 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 moving 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 dis-
play, and then your heart rate will be shown. For
the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the con-
tacts 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.
6. 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.
7. 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 minutes,
the console will turn off and the main display will
be reset.
