As you exercise, the workout intensity level bar
will indicate the approximate intensity level of your
exercise.
Press the Home button to exit the workout and
return to the default menu (see HOW TO CHANGE
CONSOLE SETTINGS on page 19 to set the
default menu). If necessary, press the Home button
again.
When a wireless iFit module is
connected, the wireless sym-
bol at the top of the display will
show the strength of your wire-
less signal. Four arcs indicate
full signal strength.
Change the volume level of
the console by pressing the
volume increase and decrease
buttons.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using either the
handgrip heart rate monitor or the optional chest
heart rate monitor
(see page 18) for infor
-
mation about the optional chest heart rate
monitor).
If there are
sheets of plas
-
tic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip heart
rate monitor,
remove the plas
-
tic.
To measure
your heart rate,
hold the handgrip
heart rate monitor
with your palms resting against the contacts.
Avoid
moving your hands or gripping the contacts
tightly.
When your pulse is detected, a heart symbol will
flash in the display each time your heart beats,
one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart
rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds.
If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the contacts tightly. For optimal perfor-
mance, clean the contacts using a soft cloth;
never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the contacts.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan has high, low, and
auto speed settings. While
the auto mode is selected, the
speed of the fan will automati-
cally increase or decrease as
you increase or decrease your pedaling speed.
Press the fan increase and decrease buttons
repeatedly to select a fan speed or to turn off the
fan.
Note: If the pedals do not move for about thirty
seconds, the fan will turn off automatically.
7. When you are finished exercising, unplug the
power cord.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
tone will sound and the console will pause.
If the pedals do not move for several minutes and
the buttons are not pressed, the console will turn
off and the display will be reset.
When you are finished exercising, press the power
switch to the off position and unplug the power
cord.
IMPORTANT: If you do not do this, the
electrical components on the elliptical may
wear prematurely.
