SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS STEPPER
CAUTION: Before starting any exercise program, it is recommended that you consult your
physician.
Thank you for purchasing our product. Even though we go to great efforts to ensure the quality of
each product we produce, occasional errors and/or omissions do occur. In any event, should you
find this product to have either a defective or a missing part, please contact us for a replacement.
This exercise equipment was designed and built for optimum safety. However, certain precautions
apply whenever you operate a piece of exercise equipment. Be sure to read the entire manual
before assembly and operation of this machine. Also, please note the following safety precautions:
1. Read the OWNER'S OPERATING MANUAL and all accompanying literature and follow it
carefully before using your stepper.
2. It is the responsibility of the owner to ensure that all users of the Stepper exerciser are
adequately informed of all precautions.
3. If dizziness, nausea, chest pains, or any other abnormal symptoms are experienced while
using this equipment, STOP the workout at once. CONSULT A PHYSICIAN IMMEDIATELY.
4. Inspect your exercise equipment prior to exercising to ensure that all nuts and bolts are fully
tightened before each use.
5. The stepper must be regularly checked for signs of wear and damage. Any part found
defective; the part must be replaced with new spare part from the manufacturer.
6. Fitness equipment must always be installed on a flat surface, do not place the unit on a loose
rug or uneven surface. It is recommended to use an equipment mat to prevent the unit from
moving while it is being used, which could possibly scratch or damage the surface of your floor.
Keep the Stepper exerciser indoors, away from moisture and dust.
7. No changes must be made which might compromise the safety of the equipment.
8. It is recommended to have a minimum of 1' safe clearance around the exercise equipment
while in use.
9. Keep children and pets away from this equipment at all times while exercising.
10. Warm-up 5 to 10 minutes before each workout and cool down 5 to 10 minutes afterward. This
allows your heart rate to gradually increase and decrease and will help prevent you from
straining muscles.
11. Never hold your breath while exercising. Breathing should remain at a normal rate in
conjunction with the level of exercise being performed
12. Always wear suitable clothing and footwear while exercising. Do not wear loose-fitting clothing
that could become entangled with the moving parts of your stepper.
13. Always hold the handlebars when mounting, dismounting, or using the Stepper exerciser.
14. Keep your back straight when using the Stepper exerciser; do not arch your back.
WARNING: Before beginning any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially
important for individuals over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. Read all
instructions before using any fitness equipment. We assume no responsibility for personal injury or
property damage sustained by or through the use of this product.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING- Read all instructions before using this equipment.
DANGER -To reduce the risk of electric shock, always unplug this equipment from the electrical
outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
WARNING -To reduce the risk of burns, fire, electric shock, or injury to persons, install the stepper
on a flat level surface with access to a 110-volt, 15 amp grounded outlet with only the stepper
plugged into the circuit.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT ISA14AWG OR BETTER.
Do not operate stepper on deeply padded, plush or shag carpet. Damage to both carpet and
stepper may result.
Keep children away from the stepper. There are obvious pinch points and other caution
areas that can cause harm.
Keep hands away from all moving parts.
Never operate the stepper if it has a damaged cord or plug. If the stepper is not working
properly, call your dealer.
Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
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.
To disconnect, turn all controls to the off position and then remove the plug from the outlet.
Do not attempt to use your stepper for any purpose other than for the purpose it is intended.
The hand pulse sensors are not medical devices. Various factors, including the user's

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING!
NEVER remove any cover without first disconnecting AC power. If voltage varies by ten percent
(10%) or more, the performance of your stepper may be affected. Such conditions are not covered
under your warranty. If you suspect the voltage is low, contact your local power company or a
licensed electrician for proper testing.
NEVER expose this stepper to rain or moisture. This product is NOT designed for use outdoors,
near a pool or spa, or in any other high humidity environment. The temperature specification is 40
degrees C, and humidity is 95%, non-condensing (no water drops forming on surfaces).
Circuit breakers: Avoid AFCI/GFCI circuit breakers if possible. These breakers may occasionally
trip during use because of the high inrush currents from the Stepper drive motor. This condition is
an issue with all Steppers and other products with large motors or electric heating elements like
ovens.
New laws in your area may require these breakers. If you do have these breakers and outlets in
your home and are experiencing nuisance tripping, you should check to see if there are any other
devices plugged into the same circuit like fluorescent lights with electronic ballasts, coffee makers,
space heater, etc. Optimally the stepper should be the only device plugged into the circuit.
Our steppers have surge suppressors built in to help avoid nuisance tripping. We have tested
several AFCI/GFCI breakers and outlets with our products that do not trip when only the stepper is
connected. Brands we have tested are Eaton (Cutler-Hammer Series), Leviton (Smart lock pro)
and Schneider Electric (Canadian home series).
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If your equipment should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk of electric shock. This
product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman 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.
This product is for use on a nominal 110-volt/15 amp dedicated circuit and has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug illustrated below. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated
below may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown below if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet (shown below) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-coloured 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.

IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
NEVER operate this stepper without reading and completely understanding the results of any
operational change you request from the computer.
Understand that changes in resistance and incline do not occur immediately. Set your desired
resistance level on the computer console and release the adjustment key. The computer will
obey the command gradually.
NEVER use your stepper during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household
power supply that could damage climber components. Unplug the stepper during an electrical
storm as a precaution.
Use caution while participating in other activities while using your stepper, such as watching
television, reading, etc. These distractions may cause you to lose balance, which may result in
serious injury.
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to function
properly with little finger pressure.

OPERATION OF YOUR FITNESS STEPPER
Operation Of Your Console
POWER
When theAC power cord is connected to the stepper, the console will automatically power up.
When initially powered on, the console will perform an internal self-test. During this time all the
lights will turn on. When the lights go off, the Dot Matrix Message Center will show the software
version (i.e., VER 1.0). The LED Data Display Window shows the total hours of use and total steps.
The odometer will remain displayed for only a few seconds then the console will go to the startup
display. The Dot Matrix Message Center display will be scrolling through the different profiles of the
programs and will be scrolling the startup message. You may now begin to use the console.
C-SAFEFEATURE
Your console is equipped with a C-SAFE feature. The Power (POWER) port can be used for
powering a remote-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 fitness software applications.

QUICK START
This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up, you just press the Start
key 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 will show just the bottom row lit. As
you increase the workload, more rows will light, indicating a harder workout. The stepper 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 first column again. There are 20 levels of resistance
available for plenty of variety. The first 5 levels are very easy workloads, and the changes between
levels are set to a good progression for de-conditioned users. Levels 6-10 are more challenging,
but the increases in resistance from one level to the next remain small. Levels 11-15 start getting
tough as the levels jump more dramatically. Levels 16-20 are extremely difficult and are good for
short interval peaks and elite athletic training.
BASIC INFORMATION
The Dot Matrix Message Center, or Profile Window, will display the workout Profile. The LED Data
Display Window displays pertinent exercise data. There is a Strides Per Minute window for pedal
speed and a Level window indicating machine resistance.
The LED Data Display Window will initially be displaying Steps, Calories, Pulse and Time Elapsed
information. When the Up/Down Scan key is pressed, the next set of information will appear Vertical
Distance, Watts, METs and 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.
The Stop key button actually has several functions. Pressing the Stop key 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 key. If the Stop key is pressed twice during a workout, the program will
end, and the console will return to the start-up screen. If the Stop key button is held down for 3
seconds, the console will perform a complete Reset. During data entry for a program, the Stop key
performs a Previous Screen function. This allows you to go back one step in the programming each
time you press the Stop key button.
The Program Key is used to preview each program. When you first turn the console on, you may
press program key to preview what the program profile 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 / 0.4 KM TRACK
The 1/4-mile track (0.4 km) will be displayed around the dot matrix window. The flashing dot
indicates your progress. In the center of the track, there is a lap counter for reference.

Email: [e-mail] 15
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 STEPPER will also pick up wireless heart rate transmitters
that are Polar compatible, including coded transmissions.
TO TURN STEPPER OFF
The display will automatically turn off (go to sleep) after 30 minutes of inactivity. This function is
called sleep mode. In sleep mode, the stepper will power down most everything except for a
minimum of circuitry for detecting button presses and the safety button, so it will start up again if
these are activated. There is only a tiny amount of current used in sleep mode (about the same as
your TV when it is turned off), and it is perfectly fine to leave the main power switch on in sleep
mode. Of course, you may also remove the safety button or turn off the main power switch to power
down the stepper.
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 also necessary during the Heart Rate control
program to ensure the correct settings are in the program for yourAge. Otherwise, the work settings
could be too high or low for you, entering your Weight aides in calculating a 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 finished exercising!
ENTERING APROGRAM & CHANGING SETTINGS
When you enter a program (by pressing the Program button to choose a program, then the Enter
key to select it), you have the option of entering your own personal settings. If you want to work out
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, select Manual, then press the Enter button.
2. The Dot Matrix Message Center will ask you to enter yourAge. You may enter yourAge, using
the Up and Down buttons or the numeric button pad, 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 or the numeric button pad; 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 finished 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 workload at any
time, press the Up button; the Down button will decrease the workload.
7. During the Manual program, you will be able to scroll through the data in the LED Data Display
Window by pressing the adjacent Up/Down Scan button. You may also switch between the
profile display and a quarter-mile track by pressing the Up/Down Scan button adjacent to the
LED Data Display Window.
8. When the program ends, you may press Start to begin the same program again or Stop to exit
the program, or you can save the program you just completed as a custom program by
pressing the Program button and selecting Custom, then following the instructions in the Dot
Matrix Message Center.

PRESET PROGRAMS
The stepper has ten different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These
ten programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals.
HILL
This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual
progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort (the
level that you chose before starting this program) up to a
maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time,
then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately
10% of maximum effort.
FAT BURN
This program follows a quick progression up to the maximum
resistance level (default or user input level) that is sustained for
2/3 of the workout. This program will challenge your ability to
sustain your energy output for an extended period of time.
Cardio
This program presents a quick progression up to near maximum
resistance level (default or user input level). It has slight
fluctuations up and down to allow your heart rate to elevate and
then recover repeatedly before beginning a quick cool down.
This will build up your heart muscle and increase blood flow and
lung capacity.
Strength
This program has a gradual progression of resistance up to
100% of maximum effort that is sustained for 25% of workout
duration. This will help build strength and muscular endurance
in the lower body and glutes.A brief cool-down follow.
Interval
This program takes you through high levels of intensity followed
by recovery periods of low intensity. This program utilizes and
develops your "Fast Twitch" muscle fibers which are used when
performing tasks that are intense and short in duration. These
deplete your oxygen level and spike your heart rate, followed by
periods of recovery and heart rate drop to replenish oxygen.
Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen
more efficiently.
HIIT
The HIIT, or High Intensity Interval Training, program takes
advantage of the latest trend in fitness. During the program,
you will perform short bursts of high intensity sprinting followed
by short rest periods. HIIT is a fully customizable interval
training program. You can enter the number of intervals, time of
each interval Sprint and Rest periods and the work intensity of
the levels.
