HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handles on
the console or the handlebars and step onto the pedal
that is in the lowest position. Then, 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; 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.
The handlebars are designed to add upper-body exer-
cise to your workouts. As you exercise, push and pull
the handlebars to work your arms, shoulders, and
back.

HOW TO USE THE CONSOLE
Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries
(see assembly step 3 on page 6). If there is a
sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console,
peel offthe plastic.
To turn on the console, press the increase button
or begin pedaling.
Change the resistance of the pedals as
desired.
As you pedal,
change the resis-
tance of the ped-
als by pressing
the increase or
decrease button.
There are ten
resistance levels. The selected resistance level
will be shown in the upper display. Note: After a
button is pressed, it will take a moment for the
pedals to reach the selected resistance level.
Follow your progress with the displays.
As you exercise,
the lower left dis-
play can show
the elapsed time
and the distance
(total number of
revolutions) that you have pedaled.
The lower right
display can show
your pedaling
speed (in revolu-
tions per minute)
and the approxi-
mate number of calories you have burned. When
you use the handgrip pulse sensor, the lower
right display will also show your heart rate (see
step 4 on page 11).
