FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
The console also offers four preset programs. Each
program automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your
pedaling speed as it guides you through an effective
workout.
n addition, the console features two heart rate pro-
grams that change the resistance of the pedals to
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings
while you exercise.
The console also features the new iF T nteractive
Workout System. The iF T nteractive Workout System
is compatible with iF T Cards containing workout pro-
grams designed to help you achieve specific fitness
goals. For example, lose unwanted pounds with the 8-
week Weight Loss program. iF T programs control the
resistance of the pedals while the voice of a personal
trainer coaches you and motivates you through your
workouts. iF T Cards are available separately. To pur-
chase iFIT Cards, go to www.iFIT.com or call the
toll-free telephone number on the front cover of
this manual. iFIT Cards are also available at select
stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the consoleʼs stereo sound system and listen to
your favorite music or audio books while you exercise.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
Press any button on the console or begin
pedaling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 14.
Select a preset program.
To select one of the four preset programs, press
the Weight Loss, the Aerobic 1, the Aerobic 2, or
the Performance button on the left side of the
console.
When you select a preset program, the name of
the program and the maximum resistance level
will appear in the display for a few seconds. A
profile of the resistance levels of the program will
also scroll across the left side of the display.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target pace
setting is programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance level and/or target pace set-
ting may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.
During the program, the program profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The
flashing segment of the profile represents the cur-
rent segment of the program. The height of the
flashing segment indicates the resistance level
for the current segment. At the end of each seg-
ment of the program, a series of tones will sound
and the next segment of the profile will begin to
flash. f a different resistance level is pro-
grammed for the next segment, the resistance
level will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then
change.
During the program, the program target pacer will
prompt you to keep your pedaling pace near the
target pace setting for the current segment. When
aleft indicator lights, increase your pace; when a
right indicator lights, decrease your pace. When
the center indicator lights, maintain your current
pace. Important: The program target pacer is
intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
f the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override
the resistance level by pressing the OneTouch
Resistance buttons. However, when the current
segment ends, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.
f you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the program will pause. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The
program will continue until the last segment of the
profile ends.
Follow your progress with the displays.

To select one of the heart rate programs, press
the Heart Rate 1 or the Heart Rate 2 button on
the left side of the console.
Enter a target heart rate setting.
A few seconds after
you select a heart
rate program, the tar-
get heart rate setting
for the program will
flash in the lower right
display.
During heart rate program 1, the same target
heart rate setting will be programmed for all seg-
ments of the program. f you have selected heart
rate program 1, press the increase and decrease
buttons above the Heart Rate Program buttons to
enter the desired target heart rate setting (see
EXERC SE NTENS TY on page 20).
During heart rate program 2, different target
heart rate settings will be programmed for differ-
ent segments of the program. f you have select-
ed heart rate program 2, press the increase and
decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Program
buttons to enter the desired maximum target
heart rate setting for the program (see EXER-
C SE NTENS TY on page 20).
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
t is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse
sensor continuously during heart rate programs;
however, you should hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor frequently for the programs to operate proper-
ly. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor, keep your hands on the metal contacts
for at least 30 seconds.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate program 1 is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. Note: For a shorter workout,
stop exercising or select a different program
before the program ends.
Heart rate program 2 is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
target heart rate setting may be programmed for
consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile in the
display will show your progress. The flashing seg-
ment of the profile represents the current seg-
ment of the program. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the target heart rate setting for
the current segment. At the end of each segment
of the program, a series of tones will sound and
the next segment of the profile will begin to flash.
During both programs, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current segment of the program. f
your heart rate is too far below or above the tar-
get heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals
will automatically increase or decrease to bring
your heart rate closer to the target heart rate set-
ting. Each time the resistance changes, the resis-
tance level will appear in the display for a few
seconds to alert you.

18
While you exercise, the program target pacer will
prompt you to maintain a constant pedaling
speed. When a left indicator lights, increase your
pace; when a right indicator lights, decrease your
pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain
your current pace. Important: The program tar-
get pacer is intended only to provide a goal.
Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfort-
able for you.
f the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override
the resistance level by pressing the OneTouch
Resistance buttons. However, when the console
compares your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting, the resistance of the pedals may auto-
matically increase or decrease to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
f you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the program will pause. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The
program will continue until the last segment of the
program ends.
Follow your progress with the displays.
See step 4 on page 14.
Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 6 on page 15.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 7 on page 15.

Next, select the desired program on the iF T Card
by pressing the increase and decrease buttons
next to the iF T slot.
A moment after you select a program, the voice
of a personal trainer will begin guiding you
through your workout. iF T programs work in the
same way as preset programs. To use the pro-
gram, see steps 3 to 7 on page 16.
When you are finished exercising, remove the
iFit Card.
Remove the iFit Card when you are finished exer-
cising. Store the iFit Card in a secure place.
HOW TO USE THE STEREO SOUND SYSTEM
To play music or audio books through the consoleʼs
stereo sound system while you exercise, locate the
jack under the ledge on the console. Plug the included
audio cable into the jack on the console and into a
jack on your MP3 player or CD player; make sure
that the audio cable is fully plugged in.
Next, press the play button on your MP3 player or CD

nspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and
a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid
damage to the console, keep liquids away from
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
f the console displays become dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 9 on page
8 for replacement instructions.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
f the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-
ly, see step 5 on page 15.
HOW TO ELIMINATE RUBBING OF THE DISCS
f the Discs (12) rub against the Side Shields (14, 15)
during use, make sure that the Center Foot (40) is
installed in the Frame (1). f the Center Foot is
installed, loosen the two indicated Bolt Sets (88) and
the two M4 x 16mm Screws (78) in each side of the
elliptical exerciser.
Adjust the position of the Side Shields (14, 15) until
the Discs (12) no longer rub against them, and then
tighten the Bolt Sets (88) and the M4 x 16mm Screws
(78).
HOW TO AD UST THE BELT
f the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the
belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the belt, first
see assembly step 12 on page 10 and remove the left
pedal arm and the left link arm.
Then, remove the
four screws (not
shown) from the
center of the left
Disc (12). Next,
carefully pry off
the left Disc
Cover (13) using
a flat screwdriver.
Gently rotate the
Disc Cover and
the Disc away from the elliptical exerciser.
Loosen, but do
not remove, the
three indicated
screws (A). nsert
the shaft of a
screwdriver
downward
between the
dler (47) and the
dler Pulley (48).
Pull the top of the
screwdriver
toward the front
of the elliptical exerciser until the Belt (74) is tight.
Then, tighten the three screws.
Reattach the left disc with the four screws and then
reattach the left disc cover. Next, see assembly step
12 on page 10 and reattach the left pedal arm and the
left link arm.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition
and adequate rest are essential for successful results.
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age
at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the
nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above
your age. The three numbers are your “training zone.”
The lower two numbers are recommended heart rates
for fat burning; the highest number is the recommend-
ed heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-
gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy.
f your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle num-
ber in your training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
f your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exer-
cise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged periods of time. This increases the
demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles,
and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your
training zone as you exercise.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-
ration for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer-
cise program, do not keep your heart rate in your
training zone for longer than 20 minutes.
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will
help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, complete three
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest
between workouts. After a few months of regular exer-
cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week
if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
WARNING:
Before beginning this or any exercise pro-
gram, consult your physician. This is espe-
cially important for persons over the age of 35
or persons with pre-existing health problems.
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.
