HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER

To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion. 

Note: The crank arms can turn in either direction.
It is recommended that you turn the crank arms in
the direction shown by the arrow at the right; how-
ever, for variety you can turn the crank arms in the
opposite direction. 

To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. 

Note: The elliptical

exerciser 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 lower pedal.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more effective. 

When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button. As you exercise, the console will display
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.

The console also features eight smart programs that
automatically change the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to vary your pedaling pace while guiding
you through effective workouts.

In addition, the console offers two heart rate programs
that automatically control the resistance of the pedals
and prompt you to maintain a constant pedaling pace
to keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings
during your workouts.
