IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the following important precau-
tions before using the elliptical exerciser.
1
. Read all instructions in this manual and all
warnings on the elliptical exerciser before
using the elliptical exerciser.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the elliptical exerciser are
adequately informed of all precautions.
3. The elliptical exerciser is intended for
home use only. Do not use the elliptical
exerciser in a commercial, rental, or institu-
tional setting.
4. Place the elliptical exerciser on a level sur-
face, with a mat beneath it to protect the
floor or carpet. Keep the elliptical exerciser
indoors, away from moisture and dust. Make
sure that there is enough clearance around
the elliptical exerciser to mount, dismount,
and use it.
5. Inspect and properly tighten all parts regu-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
6. Keep children under 12 and pets away from
the elliptical exerciser at all times.
7. The elliptical exerciser should not be used
by persons weighing more than 1
15 kg (250
lbs).
8. Wear appropriate clothes while using the
elliptical exerciser. Always wear athletic
shoes for foot protection while exercising.
9
. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor or the han-
dlebars when mounting, dismounting, or
using the elliptical exerciser.
10. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
11. Keep your back straight while using the ellip-
tical exerciser; do not arch your back.
12. If you feel pain or dizziness at any time
while exercising, stop immediately and cool
down.
13. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a complete stop. The ellip-
tical exerciser does not have a free wheel;
the pedals will continue to move until the
flywheel stops.
14. Always unplug the power cord immediately
after use and before cleaning the elliptical
exerciser.
15. The warning decals shown on page 4 have
been placed on the elliptical exerciser
. If a
decal is missing or illegible, call the tele-
phone number on the front cover of this

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be earthed. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, earthing provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earth-
ing plug. If the power cord is damaged, it must be
replaced with a manufacturer-recommended
power cord.
Two power
cords are
included. Select
the one that will
fit your outlet.
Refer to drawing
1, and plug the
indicated end of
the power cord
into the socket at
the back of the
elliptical exerciser.
Refer to drawing
2. Plug the power
cord into an
appropriate outlet
that is properly
installed and
earthed in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances. Note: In
Italy, an adaptor (not included) must be used
between the power cord and the outlet. Important:
The elliptical exerciser is not compatible with
GFCI-equipped outlets.
Note: When the power cord is plugged in, the ellip
-
tical exerciser’s incline system may automatically
calibrate itself. During the calibration process, two
dashes (– –) will appear in the main display of the
console, and the ramp will move to the highest
position and then return to the lowest position.
The calibration process will last for one to two
minutes.
DANGER: Improper connection of
the equipment-earthing conductor can result
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check
with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly earthed. Do not modify the plug pro-
vided with the product—if it will not fit the out-
let, have a proper outlet installed by a quali-
fied electrician.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
a
nd step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Then, 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 below; however, for
variety, you can turn the pedal disks in the oppo-
site direction.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE STRIDE OF THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To adjust the stride of the elliptical exerciser, first pull
o
ne of the adjustment knobs until the adjustment
bracket can be pivoted freely. Pivot the adjustment
bracket until the adjustment knob is aligned with either
of the indicated holes in the crank arm, and then gen-
tly release the knob. Pivot the adjustment bracket
back and forth slightly to make sure that the latch pin
is engaged in one of the holes. Adjust the other side of
the elliptical exerciser in the same way.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and
effective. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, the resistance of the pedals can be changed
with the touch of a button. As you pedal, the console
will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can
even measure your heart rate using the built-in hand-
grip pulse sensor.
In addition, the console offers eight preset programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease
your pace as it guides you through an ef
fective workout.
The console also offers two pulse programs that control
the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart rate
near the target heart rate settings during your work
-
outs.
The console also features iFIT
.com interactive technol
-
ogy. Having iFIT.com interactive technology is like hav-
ing a personal trainer in your home. Using the included
audio cable, you can connect the elliptical exerciser to
your home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR
and play special iFIT.com CD and video programs
(iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are available sepa-
rately). iFIT.com CD and video programs automatically
control the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to
vary your pace as a personal trainer coaches you
through every step of your workout. High-energy music
provides added motivation.

“P-6,” “P-7,” “P-8,” “P-9,” or “P-10” appears in the
upper section of the display.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
To start the program, simply begin pedalling. Each
preset program consists of 20 or 30 one-minute
periods. One resistance level and one target pace
are programmed for each period. Note: The same
resistance level and/or target pace may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive periods.
At the end of each period of the program, the time
will flash in the centre display and a series of
tones will sound. In addition, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically change if a different
resistance level is programmed for the next peri-
od. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too
low, you can change it by pressing the Resistance
+ and – buttons. However, when the current peri-
od ends, the resistance of the pedals will auto-
matically change if a different resistance level is
programmed for the next period.
As you exercise,
the pace display
w
ill help you to
keep your ped-
a
lling pace near
the target pace
setting for the cur-
rent period. When
one of the “too slow” indicators lights, increase
your pace. When one of the “too fast” indicators
lights, decrease your pace. When the centre indi-
cator lights, maintain your current pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intend-
ed only to provide motivation. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target pace set-
tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
During the program, the centre of the display will
show the time remaining in the program. If you
stop pedalling for a few seconds, the display will
pause and the time will flash. If you continue ped-
alling after the program is completed, the display
will continue to show exercise feedback.
Monitor your progress with the display.
See step 5 on page 12.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 6 on page 13.
Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 7 on page 13.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.

OW TO USE THE PULSE PROGRAM
Pulse program 1 is designed to keep your heart rate
w
ithin a preset range during your workout. Pulse pro-
g
ram 2 is designed to keep your heart rate near a tar-
get heart rate setting that you select.
Follow the steps below to use a pulse program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
Select a pulse program.
To select a pulse
program, press
the Program
(PGM) button
repeatedly until
“P-1” or “P-2”
appears in the upper section of the display.
Enter your age or a target heart rate setting.
If pulse program
1 is selected, the
word “AGE” will
flash in the lower
section of the dis-
play and an age
setting will appear. If you have already entered
your age, press the button with the heart symbol.
If you have not entered your age, press the small
+ and – buttons to enter your age, and then press
the button with the heart symbol. Note: Once you
have entered your age, it will be saved in memory.
If pulse program
2 is selected, the
word “RATE” will
flash in the lower
section of the dis
-
play and a target
heart rate setting will appear. Press the small +
and – buttons to change the target heart rate set
-
ting if desired
(see EXERCISE INTENSITY on
page 22).
Then, press the button with the heart
symbol.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
I
t is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse
sensor continuously during a pulse program;
h
owever, you must hold the handgrip pulse
sensor frequently for the program to function
properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip
pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal
contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When
you are not holding the handgrip pulse sensor,
the letters “PLS” will appear in the display instead
of your heart rate.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
Pulse program 1 is divided into 30 one-minute
periods. One target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for each period. (The same target heart
rate setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive periods.)
Pulse program 2 is divided
into 60 one-minute periods (you may choose to
use only part of the program). The same target
heart rate setting is programmed for all periods.
During the program, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current period. If your heart rate is
too far below or above the target heart rate set-
ting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically
increase or decrease to bring your heart rate clos-
er to the target heart rate setting. Note: If the
resistance level is too high or too low, you can
override it by pressing the Resistance buttons.
However, when the console compares your heart
rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance
may automatically change.
After the first one-
minute period
ends, the pace
display will help
you to maintain a
steady pedalling
pace. When one
of the “too slow”
indicators lights, increase your pace. When one
of the “too fast” indicators lights, decrease your
pace. When the centre indicator lights, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The pace display is intended only
to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a
pace that is comfortable for you.

The display will show the time remaining in pulse
program 1, or the elapsed time in pulse program
2
. If you stop pedalling for a few seconds, the
program will pause and the time will flash in the
d
isplay. To restart the program, resume pedalling.
Monitor your progress with the display.
See step 5 on page 12.
Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 7 on page 13.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 8 on page 13.
