HOW TO PUT ON THE CHEST PULSE SENSOR
The chest pulse sensor has two components: a chest
strap and a sensor unit (see the drawing below). Insert
the tab on one end of the chest strap into one end of
the sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing. Press
the end of the sensor unit under the buckle on the
chest strap. The tab should be flush with the front of
the sensor unit.
Next, wrap the chest
pulse sensor around
your chest and attach
the other end of the
chest strap to the sen-
sor unit. Adjust the
length of the chest
strap, if necessary. The
chest pulse sensor should be under your clothes, tight
against your skin, and as high under the pectoral mus-
cles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that the
logo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is right-
side-up.
Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches
and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side
(the electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges).
Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor
unit to a position against your chest.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Dry the chest pulse sensor after each use. The
chest pulse sensor is activated when you wet the
electrode areas and put on the chest pulse sensor;
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, the battery may
be drained 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 sun-
light for extended periods of time or to temperatures
above 122° F (50° C) or below 14° F (-10° C).
• 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. Hand wash
and air dry the chest pulse sensor.
TROUBLESHOOTING
If the chest pulse sensor does not function prop-
erly, try the suggestions below.
• Make sure that you are wearing the chest pulse sen-
sor as described at the left. Note: If the chest pulse
sensor does not function when positioned as
described, move it slightly lower or higher on your
chest.
• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sen-
sor unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until
you begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• Position yourself near the console. For the console
to display heart rate readings, the user must be
within armʼs length 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
this is a problem, try relocating the elliptical.

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER
IMPORTANT: If the elliptical has been exposed to
cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before plugging in the power adapter. If
you do not do this, you may damage the console
displays or other electronic components.
Plug the power
adapter into the
receptacle on the
frame of the ellipti-
cal. Next, plug the
power adapter into
the plug adapter.
Then, plug the
plug adapter into
an appropriate
outlet that is prop-
erly installed in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving
it requires two persons. Stand in front of the ellipti-
cal, hold the upright, and place one foot against one of
the front wheels. Pull on the upright and have a sec-
ond person lift the handle on the ramp until the
elliptical will roll on the front wheels. Carefully move
the elliptical to the desired location, and then lower it

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the upper body arms and
step onto the pedal that is in the lower position. Then,
step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until they
begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The
crank arms can turn in either direction. It is recom-
mended that you turn the crank arms in the
direction shown by the arrow; however, for variety,
you can turn the crank arms in the opposite direc-
tion.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals 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 stationary,
step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower
pedal.
HOW TO CHANGE THE INCLINE OF THE RAMP
To vary the motion of the pedals, you can change the
incline of the ramp. To change the incline, press the
latch button, pull the ramp handle, and raise or lower
the ramp to the desired incline level. Then, release the
latch button and engage the latch pin into one of the

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 with the touch
of a button. While you exercise, the console will dis-
play continuous exercise feedback. You can also
measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sen-
sor or the included chest pulse sensor.
In addition, the console offers twenty preset work-
outs—six weight loss workouts and fourteen
performance workouts. Each workout 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 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 oss workout. iFit workouts control the resis-
tance of the pedals while the voice of a personal
trainer coaches you through your workouts. iFit cards
are available separately. To purchase iFit cards, go
to www.iFit.com or see the front cover of this man-
ual. iFit cards are also available at select stores.

the Weight oss
Workouts button
repeatedly until the
name of the
desired workout
appears in the dis-
play.
The workout duration, the maximum speed, and a
profile of the resistance levels will also appear in
the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 20, 30 or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance level and one
target speed is programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target
speed may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.
The resistance level for the first segment will
appear in the display and the target speed for the
first segment will flash in the display for a few sec-
onds.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent 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. If a different resis-
tance level and/or target speed is programmed for
the next segment, the resistance level and/or tar-
get speed will appear in the display for a few
seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals
will then change.
As you exercise,
keep your pedaling
speed near the tar-
get speed for the
current segment. At
the beginning of
each segment, the target speed for the segment
will flash in the display.
IMPORTANT: The target speed is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pedaling
speed may be slower than the target speed.
Make sure to pedal at a speed that is comfort-
able for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Resistance buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level programmed for
the next segment.
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
stop counting. To restart the workout, simply
resume pedaling.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
