all important precautions and instructions in this manual and all warnings on your elliptical before
using your elliptical. iFIT assumes no responsibility for personal injury or property damage sus-
tained by or through the use of this product.
1. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure
that all users of the elliptical are adequately
informed of all precautions.
2. Keep children under age 16 and pets away
from the elliptical at all times.
3. Consult your health care provider before
beginning any exercise program. This is
especially important for persons over age
35 or persons with pre-existing health
problems.
4. Consult your health care provider before
beginning or continuing any exercise pro-
gram during pregnancy. Use the elliptical
only as authorized by your health care
provider.
5. The elliptical is not intended for use by
persons with reduced physical, sensory, or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they are given supervi-
sion or instruction about use of the elliptical
by someone responsible for their safety.
6. Use the elliptical only as described in this
manual.
7. The elliptical is intended for home use only.
Do not use the elliptical in a commercial,
rental, or institutional setting.
8. Keep the elliptical indoors, away from
moisture and dust. Do not put the elliptical in
a garage or covered patio, or near water.
9. Place the elliptical on a level surface, with at
least 3 ft. (0.9 m) of clearance in the front and
rear of the elliptical and 2 ft. (0.6 m) on each
side. To protect the floor or carpet from dam-
age, place a mat under the elliptical.
10. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each
time the elliptical is used. Replace any worn
parts immediately. Use only manufacturer-
supplied parts.
11. When connecting the power cord (see
page 16), plug the power cord into a
grounded circuit.
12. Do not modify the power cord or use an
adapter to connect the power cord to an
improper receptacle. Keep the power cord
away from heated surfaces. Do not use an
extension cord.
13. Do not operate the elliptical if the power cord
or plug is damaged, or if the elliptical is not
working properly.
14. DANGER: Always unplug the power
cord and switch the power switch to the off
position when the elliptical is not in use and
before cleaning the elliptical. Servicing other
than the procedures in this manual should
be performed by an authorized service repre-
sentative only.
15. The elliptical should not be used by persons
weighing more than 275 lbs. (125 kg).

17. Hold the handlebars or the upper body arms
when mounting, dismounting, or using the
elliptical. Before mounting or dismounting,
bring the pedals to a stop with the pedal

pedals will continue to move until the fly-
wheel stops. Reduce your pedaling speed in
a controlled way.
19. Keep your back straight while using the
elliptical; do not arch your back.
20. Over exercising may result in serious injury
or death. If you feel faint, if you become short

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be earthed. If it should
malfunction or break down, earthing provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. This product’s power cord has an
equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug.
IMPORTANT: If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced with a manufacturer-recommended
power cord.
Follow the steps below to plug in the power cord.
1. Plug the
indicated end
of the power
cord (A) into
the socket (B)
on the frame.
2. Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet (C)
that is properly installed and earthed in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.

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
provided with the product—if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.

17
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving
it requires two persons. Take any necessary
measures to protect your floor. Stand in front of
the elliptical, hold the upright (A), and place one foot
against one of the wheels (B). Next, pull on the upright
and have a second person lift the handle (C) until the
elliptical will roll on the wheels. Carefully move the
elliptical to the desired location, and then lower it to the
floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use,
turn one or both of the leveling feet (D) beneath
the rear stabilizer or turn the leveling foot (E) under
the center of the frame until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
THE OPTIONAL TABLET HOLDER
The optional tablet
holder (F) will hold
your tablet securely
in place and enable
you to use your tablet
while you exercise. The
optional tablet holder is
designed for use with
most full-size tablets.
To purchase a tablet
holder, please see

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the handlebars (G) or the
upper body arms (H) and step onto the pedal (I) that is
in the lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal.
Push the pedals until they begin to move with a con-
tinuous motion. Note: The pedals can turn in either
direction. It is recommended that you turn the ped-
als in the direction shown by the arrow; however,
for variety, you can turn the pedals in the opposite
direction.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals (I) come
to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not
have a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move
until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are station-
ary, step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the
lower pedal.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals and the incline
of the ramp with the touch of a button.
As you exercise, the console will provide continuous
exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart
rate using a compatible heart rate monitor.
You can also use the console sound system while you
exercise.
The console also offers unlimited iFIT workouts when
you download the iFIT app to your smart device and
connect it to the console.
With the iFIT app, you can access a large and varied
library of iFIT video workouts, create your own work-
outs, track your workout results, and access many
other features.
Each iFIT workout automatically changes the resis-
tance of the pedals as an iFIT coach guides you
through an immersive and effective video workout.
To turn on and turn off the console, see page 20.
To use the manual mode, see page 20. To use an
iFIT workout, see page 23.
To connect your heart rate monitor to the con-
sole, see page 24. To change console settings,
see page 25. To use the sound system, see
page 26.
Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the display,
remove the plastic.

HOW TO TURN ON THE CONSOLE
IMPORTANT: If the elliptical has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before you turn on the power. If you do
not do this, you may damage the console or other
electrical components.
Plug in the power cord (see
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER
CORD on page 16). Next,
locate the power switch on the
frame near the power cord.
Press the power switch to the
reset position (A).
The console will then turn on and be ready for use.
Note: When you turn on the power for the first time,
the incline system may calibrate automatically. The
ramp will move upward and downward as it calibrates.
When the ramp stops moving, the incline system is
calibrated.
IMPORTANT: If the incline system does not
calibrate automatically, see HOW TO CHANGE
CONSOLE SETTINGS on page 25 and manually
calibrate the incline system.
IMPORTANT: The console features a demo mode,
designed to be used if the elliptical is displayed in
a store. If the demo mode is turned on, the console
will not turn off and the display will not be reset
when you finish exercising. To turn off the demo
mode, see HOW TO CHANGE CONSOLE SETTINGS
on page 25.
HOW TO TURN OFF THE CONSOLE
When you are finished exercising, press the power
switch to the off position and unplug the power cord.
IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the electrical
components of the elliptical may wear prematurely.
