HOW TO USE THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
The chest pulse sensor consists of two components:
the chest strap and the sensor unit. Follow the steps
below to put on the chest pulse sensor.
See the inset drawing above. Insert the tab on
one end of the chest strap through the hole in one
end of the sensor unit. Press the end of the sen-
sor unit under the buckle on the chest strap.
Wrap the
chest pulse
sensor
around
your chest.
Attach the
free end of
the chest
strap to the
sensor unit as described above. Adjust the length
of the chest strap, if necessary. The chest pulse
sensor should be under your clothes, against
your skin, and as high under the pectoral mus-
cles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that
the logo is right-side-up and facing forward.
Pull the
sensor unit
away from
your body
afew inch-
es and
locate the
two elec-
trode areas on the inner side. Using a saline
solution such as saliva or contact lens solution,
wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor unit
to a position against your chest.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
If the chest pulse sensor does not function proper-
ly, or if the displayed heart rate is excessively high
or low, try the troubleshooting steps below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sen-
sor as described at the left. If the chest pulse sensor
does not function when positioned as described,
move it slightly lower or higher on your chest.
• Each time you use the chest pulse sensor, use
saline solution such as saliva or contact lens solu-
tion to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor
unit (see the drawing below). If heart rate readings
do not appear until you begin perspiring, re-wet the
electrode areas.
•Make sure that you are within arm’slength of the
console. For the console to display heart rate
readings, the user must be within arm’slength of
the console.
•The chest pulse sensor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical condi-
tions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
• The operation of the chest pulse sensor can be
affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
magnetic interference may be causing a problem,
try relocating your exercise equipment.
• If the chest pulse sensor still does not function prop-
erly, test the chest pulse sensor in the following way:
Hold the chest
pulse sensor
and place your
thumbs over
the electrode
areas as
shown. Next,
hold the chest
pulse sensor near the console. Whilst holding one
thumb stationary,begin tapping the other thumb
against the electrode area at a rate of about one tap
per second. Check the heart rate reading on the
console.

•If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly
after you have followed all of the above instructions,
the battery should be replaced in the following way:
Locate the battery
cover on the back of
the sensor unit.
Insert a coin into the
slot in the cover,
turn the cover coun-
terclockwise, and
remove the cover.
Remove the old
battery and insert a
new CR 2032 bat-
tery. Make sure
that the battery is
turned so the writ-
ing is on top.
Replace the battery
cover and turn it
clockwise to close it.
CHEST PULSE SENSOR CARE
•Thoroughly dry the chest pulse sensor after each
use. The chest pulse sensor is activated when the
electrode areas are wetted and the chest pulse sen-
sor is put on; the chest pulse sensor shuts off when
it is removed and the electrode areas are dried. If
the chest pulse sensor is not dried after each use, it
may remain activated longer than necessary, drain-
ing the battery prematurely.
•Store the chest pulse sensor in a warm, dry place.
Do not store the chest pulse sensor in a plastic bag
or other container that may trap moisture.
•Do not expose the chest pulse sensor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not expose
the chest pulse sensor to temperatures above 50° C
(122° F) or below -10° C (14° F).
•Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the chest pulse sensor.
•Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. The chest
strap may be hand washed and air dried.

HOW TO OPERATE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS
The motion of the
pedals is deter-
mined by their
position on the
pedal springs. To
adjust the pedals,
first remove the
pedal knob
beneath each
pedal. Slide each
pedal forward or
backward, and
then reattach it using one of the five positions in the
pedal. Make sure that both pedals are in the same
position.
HOW TOEXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebars
and 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 may turn the pedal disks in the oppo-
site direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-
als 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.
CAUTION:Before using the ellipti-
cal crosstrainer, read the following precautions.
• Always hold the handlebars when mounting,
dismounting, or using the elliptical cross-
trainer.
• When you stop exercising, allow the pedals to
slowly come to a stop.
• The pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensors are
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.

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 work out, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
The console also offers six resistance/pace 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 effective workout.
In addition, the console features two heart rate pro-
grams that change the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate
near a target heart rate as you exercise.
The console also features iFIT.com interactive technol-
ogy. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a per-
sonal trainer in your home. Using the built-in CD player,
you can play special iFIT.com CD programs. iFIT.com
CD programs automatically control the resistance of
the pedals and prompt you to vary your pace whilst a
personal trainer coaches you through every step of
your workout. High-energy music provides added moti-
vation. Topurchase iFIT.com CDs, visit our Web
site at www.iconeurope.com.
Using the included audio cable, you can also connect
the elliptical crosstrainer to your VCR and TV and play
iFIT.com video programs. iFIT.com video programs
offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, and
allow you to enjoy breathtaking scenery whilst you
exercise. To purchase iFIT.com videocassettes,
visit our Web site at www.iconeurope.com.
You can even connect the elliptical crosstrainer to your
home computer, go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com,
and access programs directly from our Web site.

assembly step 11 on page 9).
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
or begin pedalling. (The On/Reset button is the
button just above the large display.)
Select the manual mode.
Each time the console is
turned on, the manual
mode will be selected. If a
program has been select-
ed, reselect the manual
mode by pressing the
Program (PGM) button
repeatedly until the letters
“RPM” appear in the small display.
Begin pedalling and change the resistance of
the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped-
als by pressing the Resistance + and – buttons.
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 resis-
tance to reach the selected level.
Follow your progress with the large display and
the small display.
The upper sec-
tion of the large
display will
show the dis-
tance you have
pedalled and the
numbers of
calories and fat calories you have
burned (see FAT BURNING on page 24). The dis-
play will change from one number to the next
every few seconds. When you use the handgrip
pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor, the dis-
play will also show your heart rate (see step 5 on
page 15).
The centre of the
large display will
show the elapsed
time and your
pedalling pace (in
minutes per mile).
The display will change from one number to the
other every few seconds. Note: When a program
is selected (except for heart rate program 8), the
display will show the time remaining in the pro-
gram instead of the elapsed time.
The lower sec-
tion of the large
display will show
your pedalling
speed, your ped-
alling pace (in
revolutions per minute), and the resistance level.
The display will change from one number to the
next every few seconds.
Note: The con-
sole can show
speed and dis-
tance in either
miles or kilome-
tres. The letters
“MPH” or “KM/H” will appear in the lower section of
the large display to show which unit of measure-
ment is selected. Tochange the unit of measure-
ment, first hold down the Program (PGM) button
for a few seconds. An “E” (for English) or an “M”
(for metric) will appear in the lower section of the
large display. Press the Resistance + button to
change the unit of measurement. Then, press the
On/Reset button. Note: When the batteries are
replaced, it may be necessary to reselect the
desired unit of measurement.
The small display will
show your pedalling pace
(in revolutions per minute).
The indicator bar in the
small display will increase
or decrease in length as
you increase or decrease
your pedalling pace. Note:
When you use a heart rate program, the small
display will show your heart rate instead of your
pedalling pace.

To reset the displays, press the On/Reset button.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using the hand-
grip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor. 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
sheets of clear
plastic on the
metal contacts
on the hand-
grips, peel off
the plastic. To
use the hand-
grip pulse sen-
sor, hold the
handgrips with
your palms
resting against
the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands
or squeezing the handgrips too tightly; exces-
sive movement or pressure may interfere with
heart rate readings. When your pulse is detect-
ed, the heart-shaped indicator in the large display
will flash each time your heart beats, and your
heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 30 seconds. Note:
When you first hold the handgrips, the large dis-
play will show your heart rate continuously for 30
seconds. The display will then show your heart
rate along with other feedback modes.
Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at low speed, press the fan but-
ton. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the
fan button a second time. To turn off the fan,
press the fan button a third time. Note: If the fan is
turned on but the pedals are not moved for thirty
seconds, the fan will automatically turn off.

Each resistance/pace program will automatically change
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase
or decrease your pace as it guides you through an
effective workout.
Follow the steps below to use a resistance/pace pro-
gram.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 14.
Select one of the resistance/pace programs.
To select a resistance/
pace program, press the
Program (PGM) button
repeatedly until the num-
ber 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6
appears in the small dis-
play.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
Each resistance/pace program consists of either
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 programmed for two or more
consecutive periods.
When you begin pedalling, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically change to the resistance
level programmed for the first period. Note: If the
resistance level is too high or too low, you can
change it by pressing the Resistance buttons.
The target pace for the first period will appear in
the small display for a few seconds, and the
arrows in the small display will help you to pedal
at the target pace—simply increase or decrease
your pace until one segment of the indicator bar
appears at the tip of each arrow (see the drawing
at the right). Note:
When the word
“TARGET” does
not appear in the
small display, your
actual pedalling
pace will be
shown.
Important: The target pace is intended only to
provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slow-
er than the target pace, especially during the
first few months of your exercise program.
Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfort-
able for you.
During the last three seconds of each period, a
series of tones will sound and the time will flash in
the large display. The resistance of the pedals will
then change if a different resistance level is pro-
grammed for the next period. In addition, the
number of arrows in the small display will change
if a different target pace is programmed for the
next period.
During the program, the centre of the large dis-
play will show the time remaining in the program.
If you stop pedalling for a few seconds, the dis-
plays will pause and the time will flash. To restart
the program, resume pedalling.
Follow your progress with the large display.

Heart rate program 7 is designed to keep your heart
rate between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart
rate
during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is
estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart
rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart rate program 8 is
designed to keep your heart rate near a target heart
rate that you select.
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 14.
Select one of the heart rate programs.
To select a heart rate pro-
gram, press the Program
(PGM) button repeatedly
until the number 7 or 8
appears in the small dis-
play.
Enter your age or a target heart rate.
If program 7 is selected, the word “AGE” and
the current age setting will appear in the large dis-
play. 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. Once you have entered your
age, it will be saved in memory until the batteries
are replaced.
If program 8 is selected, the letters “PLS” and
the current target heart rate will appear in the
large display. If you do not wish to change the tar-
get heart rate, press the button with the heart
symbol. If you wish to change the target heart
rate, press the small + and – buttons, and then
press the button with the heart symbol. The target
heart rate can be from 70 to 170 beats per
minute.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
To use a heart rate program, you must use the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the chest pulse
sensor. If you use the handgrip pulse sensor, it is
not necessary to hold the handgrips continuously
during the program; however, you must hold the
handgrips frequently for the program to operate
properly. Each time you hold the handgrips, keep
your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30
seconds.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
Heart rate program 7 consists of 20 one-minute
periods. One resistance level and one target heart
rate are programmed for each period. (Note: The
same resistance level and/or target heart rate
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
periods.) Heart rate program 8 is sixty minutes
long (you may choose to use only part of the pro-
gram). The same resistance level and target heart
rate are programmed for the entire program.
When you begin pedalling, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically change to the resistance
level programmed for the first period.
As you pedal, the
arrows in the
small display will
help you to keep
your heart rate
near the current
target heart rate.
When you hold
the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the chest pulse
sensor,the console will compare your heart rate
to the current target heart rate. If your heart rate
is too far above or below the target heart rate, the
number of arrows in the small display will change
to prompt you to increase or decrease your pace.
When the number of arrows changes, change
your pace until one segment of the indicator bar
appears at the tip of each arrow. Important: The
target pace is intended only to provide a goal.
Your actual pace may be slower than the tar-
get pace, especially during the first few
months of your exercise program. Make sure
to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

tance level is too high or too low, you can adjust it
by pressing the Resistance buttons. However,
when the next period begins, the resistance will
automatically change if a different resistance level
is programmed for the next period.
The program will continue in this way until the
large display shows that no time remains in the
program. Note: If you stop pedalling for a few sec-
onds, the program will end. To use the program
again, reselect it and start it at the beginning.
