HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handgrip
pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the low-
est position. Next, 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 move the
pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow
below; however, for variety, you can turn the pedal
disks in the opposite 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 highest
pedal first. Then, step offthe lowest pedal.
HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS
The handlebars are
designed to add
upper-body exer-
cise to your work-
outs. Push and pull
the handlebars as
you exercise to
work your arms,
shoulders, and
back.
To exercise only
your lower body,
hold the handgrip
pulse sensor as you
exercise.
HOW TO ADJUST THE STRIDE OF THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To adjust the stride of the elliptical exerciser, first pull
one of the adjustment knobs until the adjustment
bracket can be pivoted freely. Pivot the adjustment
bracket until the adjustment knob is aligned with one
of the three holes in the crank arm, and gently release
the knob. Then, pivot the adjustment bracket back and
forth slightly to make sure that the adjustment pin is
engaged in one of the holes in the crank arm.
Adjust the other side of the elliptical exerciser in the
same way.

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
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 pedal, the console
will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can
even measure your heart rate using the built-in hand-
grip pulse sensor.
The console also offers four preset programs. Each pro-
gram automatically changes the resistance of the ped-
als and prompts you to increase or decrease your pace
as it guides you through an effective workout.
In addition, the console features two pulse programs
that change the resistance of the pedals and prompt
you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate near a
target heart rate while 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 a stereo audio cable
(available at electronics stores), you can connect the
elliptical exerciser to your home stereo, portable stereo,
computer,or VCR and play special iFIT.com CD and
video programs (iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes are
available separately). iFIT.com CD and video programs
automatically control the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to vary your pace as a personal trainer
coaches you through every step of your workout. High-
energy music provides added motivation. To purchase
iFIT.com CDs and videocassettes, call toll-free
1-888-533-1333.
With the elliptical exerciser connected to your comput-
er, you can also go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com
and access programs directly from the internet.
