IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER - To reduce the risk of electric shock:
Always unplug this appliance from the electrical
outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
WARNING
• Read all instructions before using this appliance.
• Do not operate elliptical trainer on deeply padded,
plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and
elliptical trainer may result.
• Keep children away from the elliptical trainer. There
are obvious pinch points and other caution areas that
can cause harm.
• Keep hands away from all moving parts.
• Never operate the elliptical trainer if any of the parts
are damaged. If the elliptical trainer is not working
properly, call your dealer.
• Do not operate where aerosol spray products are
being used or where oxygen is being administered.
Sparks from the motor may ignite a highly gaseous
environment.
• Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
• Do not use outdoors.
• Do not attempt to use your elliptical trainer for any
purpose other than for the purpose it is intended.
• The hand pulse sensors are not medical devices.
Their purpose is to provide you with an approximate
measurement in relation to your target heart rate.
Use of a chest transmitter strap is a much more
accurate method of heart rate analysis . Various
factors, including the user’s movement, may affect the
accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensors
are intended only as exercise aids in determining
heart rate trends in general.
• Wear proper shoes. High heels, dress shoes, sandals
or bare feet are not suitable for use on your elliptical
trainer. Quality athletic shoes are recommended to
avoid leg fatigue.
• Maximum User Weight: 450 lbs
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons with
reduced physical, sensory or metal capabilities, or
lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.
• Keep children under the age of 13 away from this
machine.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THINK SAFETY!

POWER
Spirit Fitness commercial elliptical trainers have a built-in generator for power and do not need to be
plugged into an AC outlet. To power up the elliptical trainer simply start to pedal, the console will turn
on automatically.
When initially powered on, the console will perform an internal self-test. During this time the display may
not light up for a few seconds. Continue pedaling and the display will light up. Once powered on, the Dot
Matrix Message Center will be scrolling the start-up message. You may now begin your workout program.
CSAFE FEATURE
Your console is equipped with a CSAFE feature. The Power (POWER) port can be used for powering a re-
mote controlled audio-visual system by connecting a cable from the remote to the Power port at the back of
the console. The Communication port (COMM) can be used to interact with tness software applications.

15
www.spirittness.com
QUICK START
This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up you just press the Start button to begin.
This will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero, all workout data will
start to accrue and the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the Level Up and Down buttons. The
Dot Matrix Message Center display will show just the bottom row lit. As you increase the workload more rows
will light indicating a harder workout. The elliptical trainer will get harder to pedal as the rows increase. The
Dot Matrix Message Center has 24 columns of lights and each column represents 1 minute. At the end of the
24th column (or 24 minutes of work) the display will wrap around and start at the rst column again.
There are 40 levels of resistance – displayed as 10 rows of lights - available for plenty of variety. The rst 10
levels are very easy workloads, and the changes between levels are set to a good progression for
de-conditioned users. Levels 10-20 are more challenging but the increases from one level to the next remain
small. Levels 20-30 start getting tough as the levels jump more dramatically. Levels 30-40 are extremely hard
and are good for short interval peaks and elite athletic training.
BASIC INFORMATION
The Dot Matrix Message Center, or Prole Window, will display the workout Prole. The LED Data Display
Windows display pertinent exercise data. There is a RPM window for pedal speed and a Level window
indicating machine resistance.
The LED Data Display Window will initially be displaying Distance, Calories, Pulse, and Time Elapsed
information. When the Up/Down Scan button is pressed the next set of information will appear: Speed,
Watts, METs, Time Remaining. Pressing the Up/Down Scan button, the Scan mode is activated and the LED
Data Display Window will show each set of data for four seconds then switch to the next set of data in a
continuous loop. Pressing the Up/Down Scan button again will bring you back to the beginning.

Spirit Fitness
The Stop/Reset button actually has several functions. Pressing the Stop button once during a program will
pause the program for 5 minutes. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone, or any of the many things
that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume your workout during Pause just press the
Start button. If the Stop button is pressed twice during a workout, the program will end and the console
will return to the start-up screen. If the Stop button is held down for 3 seconds, the console will perform a
complete Reset. During data entry for a program the Stop performs a Previous Screen function. This allows
you to go back one step in the programming each time you press the Stop button.
The Program button is used to preview each program. When you rst turn the console on, you may press
program key to preview what the program prole looks like. If you decide that you want to try a program,
press the Enter key to select the program and enter into the data set-up mode.
1/4 MILE TRACK
The 1/4-mile track (0.4 km) will be displayed around the dot matrix window. The ashing dot indicates your
progress. In the center of the track there is a lap counter for reference.
HEART RATE WINDOW
The Pulse (Heart Rate) window will display your current heart rate in beats per minute during the workout.
You must use both left and right stainless steel sensors to pick up your pulse. Pulse values are displayed
anytime the computer is receiving a Grip Pulse signal. You may use the Grip Pulse feature while in Heart
Rate Control. The CE800 will also pick up wireless heart rate transmitters that are Polar compatible,
including coded transmissions.

PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your needs.
Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will be asked for your
Age and Weight. Your Age is necessary during the Heart Rate control program to ensure the correct settings
are in the program for your Age. Otherwise the work settings could be too high or low for you; entering your
Weight aides in calculating a more correct Calorie reading. Although we cannot provide an exact calorie
count we do want to be as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym or at home,
are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor your progress from
workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn accurately is in a clinical setting connected
to a host of machines. This is because every person is different and burns calories at a different rate. Some
good news is that you will continue to burn calories at an accelerated rate for at least an hour after you have
nished exercising!

Spirit Fitness
ENTERING A PROGRAM & CHANGING SETTINGS
When you enter a program you have the option of entering your own personal settings. If you want to
workout without entering new settings then just press the Start button. This will bypass the programming
of data and take you directly to the start of your workout. If you want to change the personal settings then
just follow the instructions in the Dot Matrix Message Center. If you start a program without changing the
settings the default – or pre-saved – settings will be used.
MANUAL
The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the workload
yourself and not the computer. To start the Manual program follow the instructions below.
1. Using the Program button choose Manual then press the Enter button.
2. The Dot Matrix Message Center will ask you to enter your Age. You may enter your Age, using the Up and Down
buttons, then press the Enter button to accept the new number and proceed on to the next screen.
3. You are now asked to enter your Weight. You may adjust the Weight number using the Up and Down buttons,
then press enter to continue.
4. The next setting is Time. You may adjust the Time and press Enter to continue.
5. Now you are nished editing the settings and can begin your workout by pressing the Start button. You can also
go back and modify your settings by pressing the Enter button.
NOTE: At any time during the editing of data you can press the Stop button to go back one level, or screen.
6. The program automatically starts you at level one. This is the easiest level and it is a good idea to stay at level
one for a while to warm up. If you want to increase the work load at any time press the Level Up button; the Level
Down button will decrease the workload.
7. When the program ends you may press Start to begin the same program again or Stop to exit the program.
