A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord to
a 2-pole
receptacle as
shown at the
right if a prop-
erly grounded
outlet is not
available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electri-
cian.
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 outlet box
covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified elec-
trician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
Note: When the power cord is plugged in, the ellip-
tical crosstrainer may automatically calibrate itself.
During calibration, the incline frame will rise to the
highest level and then return to the lowest level.
The calibration process will last one to two minutes.
EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebar
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Next, 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 below; however,
to give variety to your exercise, you may turn the
pedal disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop.
Important: The
elliptical crosstrainer 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 off the lowest pedal.
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and
effective. When the console is in the manual mode,
the incline and resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer
can be adjusted with a touch of a button. As you exer-
cise, the LED matrix and the displays will provide con-
tinuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the built-in pulse sensor.
The console also offers eight certified personal trainer
programs. Each program automatically changes the
incline and the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer
as it guides you through an effective workout.
Note: The console can display distance and speed
in either miles or kilometers (see step 4 on page
11). For simplicity, all instructions in this section
refer to miles.

CAUTION:
Before operating the
console, read the following precautions.
• Always hold the handlebar when mounting,
dismounting, or using the elliptical
crosstrainer.
• When you stop exercising, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a stop.
• Keep your feet and objects from beneath the
elliptical crosstrainer.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, keep the
console dry. Avoid spilling liquid on the
console and use only a sealable water bottle.
• The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
