Note: The console
can display speed
and distance in
either miles or kilo-
meters. To find
which unit of mea-
surement is select-
ed, 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 let-
ter “M” for metric kilometers will appear in the
upper display. To change the unit of measurement,
press the + button.
While the user
mode is selected,
press the left Mode
button. The upper
display will then
show the total
number of hours
that the elliptical exerciser has been used. Press
the left Mode button again. The upper display will
then show the total number of miles pedaled. To
exit the user mode, press the Program Select but-
ton again.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either
the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional
chest pulse sensor. Note: If you hold the
handgrip pulse sensor and wear the chest
pulse sensor at the same time, the console
may not display your heart rate accurately.
If there are
thin sheets of
plastic on the
metal con-
tacts on the
handgrip
pulse sensor,
peel off the
plastic. To
measure your
heart rate, hold the contacts; your palms must be
resting on the contacts closest to you, and your
fingers must be touching the opposite contacts.
Avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is
detected, the Heart
Rate indicator
above the lower
display will light,
one or two dashes
(– –) will appear in
the lower 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 pulse sensor, the
lower display will show your heart rate for up to
30 seconds. The 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. Avoid
moving your hands excessively or squeezing the
metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance,
periodically clean the metal contacts using a soft
cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.
Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at low speed, press the Low
button. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the
High button. To turn off the fan, press the Off but-
ton. Note: The fan will operate only while you
are pedaling.
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
upper display will begin to flash.
If the pedals are not moved for up to one minute,
the matrix and the displays will darken; however,
the displays will not be reset. If the pedals are not
moved for about five minutes, the console will
turn off and the displays will be reset.
