HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If 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. IMPOR-
TANT: The elliptical is not compatible 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
properly
grounded
outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly 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
qualified electrician to determine if the outlet box
cover is grounded before using an adapter.
HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical
exerciser, moving it requires two persons. Stand in
front of the elliptical, hold the upright, and place one
foot against one of the front wheels. Pull on the
upright and have a second person lift the handle at
the rear until the elliptical will roll on the front wheels.
Carefully move the elliptical to the desired location,
and then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
Place
your foot
here
Pull on the
upright
Lift here
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
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
discs can turn in either direction. It is recom-
mended that you turn the discs in the direction
shown by the arrow; however, for variety, you can
turn the discs in the opposite direction.
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.

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.
In addition, the console offers twenty-four preset work-
outs—six weight loss workouts and eighteen
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 Loss 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.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite
music or audio books while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see page 16. To use the man-
ual mode, see page 16. To use a preset workout,
see page 18. To use an iFit workout, see page 19.
To use the sound system, see page 19. To change

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

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console does not display your heart rate when
you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, or if the displayed
heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see step
5 on page 17.
HOW TO CALIBRATE THE RAMP
If the ramp is not functioning properly, the ramp may
need to be calibrated. To calibrate the ramp, press
and hold the Resistance increase and decrease but-
tons for several seconds until the test mode appears
in the display.
At the same time, press the Resistance increase and
decrease buttons twice. Next, press the Vol increase
or decrease button to calibrate the ramp. The ramp
will move upward and downward as it calibrates.
When the ramp stops moving, the ramp is calibrated.
Then, at the same time, press the Resistance
increase and decrease buttons repeatedly to exit the
calibration mode.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the
drive belt may need to be adjusted.
To adjust the drive
belt, first use a flat
screwdriver to pry
the right Disc (71)
carefully away from
the right Crank Arm
(20). Then, carefully
rotate the right Disc
out of the way.
Locate and loosen the Idler Screw (101). Next, tighten
the Belt Adjustment Screw (88) until the Drive Belt
(113) is tight. Then, retighten the Idler Screw. Note: If
necessary, see EXPLODED DRAWING A on page 25
and remove the M4 x 16mm Screws (104) and the
Bottom Shield (77) from the underside of the elliptical.
To reattach the right disc, first align the mounts on the
disc with the holes in the right crank arm. Then, press
the disc firmly into place.
