HOW TO USE THE AIR STRIDER
EXERCISING ON THE AIR STRIDER
Make sure that the lock knob is tightened into the
right leg and pivot bracket (see assembly step 10 on
page 8). Tighten the resistance dials, hold the han-
dles, and step onto the pedals. The proper form for
exercising on the AIR STRIDER is similar to the
motion of walkingÑmove one leg forward as you
move the other leg back.
For a full body workout, hold the handles as you walk,
and move your arms and legs in motion with the han-
dles and pedals. To vary the effect of the exercise on
your muscles, change your stance on the AIR
STRIDER. For example, stand erect or lean against
the hip pad, change the position of your hands on the
handles, or bend your legs slightly instead of keeping
them straight.
For a lower body workout, rest your hands on the
frame for balance as you move the pedals.
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT
To vary the intensity of your workout, the resistance of
the AIR STRIDER can be changed. To increase the
resistance, turn the resistance dials clockwise. To
decrease the resistance, turn the resistance dials
counterclockwise.
ELECTRONIC MONITOR MODES
The simple-to-operate electronic monitor offers
five different modes to provide instant exercise
feedback. The five modes are described below:
SpeedÑDisplays the number of repetitions you are
performing per minute.
TimeÑDisplays the length of time you have exer-
cised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or
longer, the time mode will pause until you resume.
DistanceÑDisplays the total number of repetitions
you have completed, up to Ò999.Ó The display will then
reset to Ò0Ó and continue counting.
CaloriesÑDisplays the approximate number of
Calories you have burned. Note: If the resistance is
near the highest or lowest setting, the actual number
of Calories you have burned will be slightly higher or
lower than the number displayed.
ScanÑDisplays the speed, time, distance, and calo-
ries modes, for approximately 5 seconds each,
in a repeating cycle.

ly over the pedals.

OPERATING THE ELECTRONIC MONITOR
1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or
simply begin exercising on the AIR STRIDER. The
entire display will appear for two seconds. The
electronic monitor will then be ready for operation.
2. Select one of the five modes:
Scan modeÑWhen the power is turned on, the
scan mode will be selected automatically. The
scan mode can also be selected by repeatedly
pressing the mode button. One mode indicator will
show that the scan mode has been selected, and
a second mode indicator will show which mode is
currently displayed.
Speed, time, distance, or calories modeÑ
These modes can be individually selected by
repeatedly pressing the mode button. The mode
indicators will show which mode has been select-
ed. (Make sure that the scan mode is not select-
ed.) The modes will be selected in the following
order: speed, time, distance, calories, scan.
3. The monitor has an auto-off feature to turn off
the power. If the pedals are not moved and the
monitor buttons are not pressed for four minutes,
the power will turn off automatically in order to
conserve the batteries.
To reset the LCD display, press the on/reset button.
