HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. f it should mal-
function or break down, grounding 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-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug.
Plug the power cord into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. This product
is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit.
IMPORTANT: The elliptical exerciser is not compat-
ible with GFCI-equipped outlets.
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord to
a 2-pole
receptacle as
shown at the
right if a prop-
erly grounded
outlet is not
available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a prop-
erly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle out-
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover
is grounded before using an adapter.
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical exer-
ciser, moving it requires two persons. Stand in
front of the elliptical exerciser, hold the upright, and
place one foot against one of the wheels. Pull on the
upright and have a second person lift the handle on
the rear of the frame until the elliptical exerciser will
roll on the wheels. Carefully move the elliptical exer-
ciser to the desired location, and then lower it to the
floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
f the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet
beneath the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
DANGER: Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. 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.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the upper body
arms or the handlebars and step onto the pedal that is
in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal.
Push the pedals until they begin to move with a con-
tinuous motion.
Note: The pedal discs can turn in either direction.
It is recommended that you turn the pedal discs in
the direction shown by the arrow; however, for
variety you can turn the pedal discs 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 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. While
you exercise, the console will display continuous exer-
cise feedback. You can also measure your heart rate
using the handgrip pulse sensor.
The console offers twenty timed workouts. Each work-
out automatically changes the resistance of the pedals
and prompts you to vary your pedaling pace as it
guides you through an effective workout.
The console also offers two calorie workouts designed
to help you burn 275 or 550 calories. The calorie work-
outs automatically control the resistance of the pedals
and prompt you to vary your pace while counting the
calories you burn.
n addition, there are two my memory workouts that
allow you to create your own workouts and store them
in memory for future use.
The console features the iFit interactive workout sys-
tem, which enables the console to accept iFit cards
containing workouts designed to help you achieve
specific fitness goals. For example, lose unwanted
pounds with the 8-week Weight Loss workout. iFit
workouts control the resistance of the pedals while the
voice of a personal trainer coaches you through your
workouts. iFit cards are available separately. To pur-
chase iFit cards, go to www.iFit.com or see the
front cover of this manual. iFit cards are also
available at select stores.
You can even connect your iPod, MP3 player, per-
sonal audio player, or CD player to the console sound
system and listen to your favorite workout music or
audio books while you exercise.

adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends.
To stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A
tone will sound and the time will flash in the dis-
play. To restart the workout, simply resume pedal-
ing.

the profile is not level, see HOW TO USE A MY
MEMORY WOR OUT on page 20.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each my memory workout is divided into 40 one
minute segments. You can program one resistance
level and one target rpm (pace) setting for each
segment.
To program a resistance level for the first segment,
simply adjust the resistance of the pedals by
pressing the Quick Resistance buttons.
To program a target rpm for the first segment, sim-
ply pedal at the desired pace.
At the end of the first segment, the workout will
store the current resistance level and your current
pace in memory. Program a resistance level and a
target rpm for the second segment as described
above.
Continue exercising for up to forty minutes. Stop
pedaling when you are finished with your workout.
The workout you created will then be stored in
memory.
Note: f your workout is less than forty minutes
long, any remaining segments in the workout will
be stored with the last resistance level and target
rpm setting you programmed.

3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 40 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target rpm
(pace) setting are programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target rpm
setting may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.
The resistance level and the target rpm for the first
segment will appear in the center of the display for
a few seconds.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing at the left). The
flashing segment of the profile represents the cur-
rent segment of the workout. The height of the
flashing segment indicates the resistance level for
the current segment.
At the end of each segment of the workout, a
series of tones will sound and the next segment of
the profile will begin to flash. f a different resis-
tance level and/or target rpm is programmed for
the next segment, the resistance level and/or tar-
get rpm will flash in the display for a few seconds
to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then
change.
As you exercise,
you will be
prompted to keep
your pedaling pace
near the target rpm
setting for the cur-
rent segment.
When an upward-
pointing arrow appears in the display, increase
your pace. When a downward-pointing arrow
appears in the display, decrease your pace. When
no arrows appear, maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your
actual pace may be slower than the target rpm
settings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends.
To stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A
tone will sound and the time will flash in the dis-
play. To restart the workout, simply resume pedal-
ing.
