Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser
regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. 

To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and
a small amount of mild soap. 

Important: To avoid

damage to the console, keep liquids away from
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

If the console displays become dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. See assembly step 6 on page
7 for replacement instructions.  

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.

HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

• Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip

pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere
with heart rate readings.    

• Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so

may interfere with heart rate readings.

• For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the

metal contacts for about 30 seconds.

• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sen-

sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts
can be cleaned with a soft cloth—

never use alco-

hol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean the con-
tacts. 

HOW TO ELIMINATE FLEXING IN THE CENTER OF
THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

If the elliptical exerciser flexes in the center during
use, turn the base foot (see the drawing at the left)
until the flexing is eliminated.

four batteries into the Console. 

Make sure that the

batteries are oriented as shown by the diagram

the Upper Wire Harness (48) to the Lower Wire
Harness (49). 

Gently pull the upper end of the

Upper Wire Harness to remove any slack,

and

insert the Upright into the Base (1). Attach the Upright
with an M8 x 69mm Button Bolt (80), an M8 Split
Washer (90), and an M8 Jamnut (79). 

Do not tighten

the Button Bolt yet; make sure that the Jamnut is
in the hexagonal hole in the Base. 

Next, finger tighten two M8 x 23mm Button
Screws (84) with M8 Split Washers (90) into the
Base (1). 

Do not tighten the Button Screws yet.
