CROSSRAMP

▼▲

: These keys let you decrease 

 or increase 

 the EFX’s ramp

settings from 1 to 7. Briefly pressing the CrossRamp 

 or 

 key causes the incline

level to appear on the display. Pressing and holding the CrossRamp 

 or 

 key for a

few seconds, changes the settings.

Note: Resistance changes take precedence over ramp changes. You will notice that the
ramp movement is slowed when you change resistance settings while the ramp incline
motor is engaged.

SELECT: Briefly pressing the Select key anytime during a workout causes the next display
feature to appear. If no feature is “selected” (see 

SELECT key functions below) the display

consecutively “scans” each feature (such as Calories) and displays it for 5 seconds. If one
or more features are “selected,” the display continues scanning until the next selected item
is reached. From that point, it will only “scan” between the selected features.

The following chart explains the Select key functions:

 SELECT key functions:

What you do:

To establish a one feature display

When the feature you want appears on the
display, press and hold Select until the LED
associated with that feature begins to blink,
then release pressure from the key.

To choose another display feature

Briefly press Select to establish scan mode.
As the display consecutively scans the
features, press and hold the Select key when
the feature you want appears. Release the
key when the LED (associated with the
feature) begins to blink. The display will “scan”
between the features you have selected (and
skip over the features that you did not choose).

To undo (reverse) a selection

When the selected feature appears on the
display, press and hold Select until the LED
begins to blink. The display reverts to the
previously selected pattern (if any existed).

RESET: Pressing and holding the Reset key down for about 2 seconds causes the
display to return to a 0:00 Time display.

Note: You “pause” during a workout any time you stop moving the foot pedals. Resuming
foot pedal movement, exits “Pause mode.” If you pause for more than 10 minutes, the
system assumes that you have ended your workout and resets to a 0:00 Time display.

RESISTANCE

▼▲

: Decrease 

 or increase 

 the EFX’s resistance settings from 1 to 10.

Briefly pressing the 

 or 

 key causes the resistance settings to appear on the display.

Pressing and holding the Resistance 

 or 

 key for a few seconds, changes the settings.
