HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face
of the console, remove the plastic.

Begin pedaling to turn on the console.

A moment after you begin pedaling, the display
will light.

Select the manual mode.

Each time you
turn on the con-
sole, the manual
mode will be
selected. If you
have selected a
program, reselect
the manual mode by pressing the Smart Programs
button or the Heart Rate Programs button repeat-
edly until the words MANUAL MODE appear in the
lower left corner of the display.

Change the resistance of the pedals as
desired.

As you pedal,
change the resis-
tance of the ped-
als by pressing
the increase and
decrease buttons
repeatedly. There
are ten resistance levels. Note: After you press
the buttons, it will take a moment for the pedals
to reach the selected resistance level. 

Follow your progress with the display.

The upper left corner of the display

will show

the elapsed time. Note: When a program is select-
ed, the display will show the time remaining in the
program instead of the elapsed time.

The lower left corner of the display

will show

the distance, in total revolutions, you have ped-
aled. 

The upper right corner of the display

will show

the approximate number of calories you have
burned. The upper right corner of the display will
also show your heart rate when you use the hand-
grip pulse sensor (see step 5 on page 15). 

The lower right corner of the display

will show

your pedaling pace in revolutions per
minute (rpm).

The center of the display

will show the resis-

tance setting of the pedals for a few seconds each
time the resistance setting changes.

You can also view selected information at a larger
size. Press the Display button repeatedly to view
time and distance information, time and calorie
information, or time and speed information. Press
the Display button again to view all information.

The console has three backlight options. The “On”
option keeps the backlight on while the console is
on. To conserve the batteries, the “Auto” option
keeps the backlight on only while you are pedal-
ing. The “Off” option turns the backlight off. To
select a backlight option, first press and hold
down the Smart Programs button for several sec-
onds. Next, press the increase button to select the
desired backlight option. Then, press the Smart
Programs button to save your selection.

HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

HOW TO FOLD AND UNFOLD THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER

When the elliptical exerciser is not in use, the frame
can be folded out of the way. First, lift the latch under
each pedal leg, and lift the pedal legs off the sleeves
on the crank arms. 

Next, raise the pedal legs until they touch the magnets
on the upper body arms; the magnets will hold the
pedal legs in place. Then, hold the handle and lift the
frame until it locks in a vertical position.

To unfold the elliptical exerciser, first hold the handle,
press the latch button, and lower the frame. 

Next, pull the pedal legs away from the magnets on the
upper body arms. Then, 

lift the latches under the

pedal legs,

and set the pedal legs on the sleeves on

the crank arms. Release the latches, and make sure
that the pedal legs are securely connected to the crank
arms.

HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

To move the elliptical exerciser, first fold it as
described at the left. Next, stand in front of the ellipti-
cal exerciser, hold the handle on the upright, and place
one foot against the center of the front stabilizer. Pull
the handle until the elliptical exerciser will roll on the
front wheels. Carefully move the elliptical exerciser to
the desired position, and then lower it.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor
during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet
beneath the rear stabilizer until the rocking motion is
eliminated.
