HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS
The motion of the
pedals is deter-
mined by their
position on the
pedal springs. To
adjust the pedals,
first remove the
pedal knob
beneath each
pedal. Slide each
pedal forward or
backward and
reattach it using one of the five positions in the pedal
and one of the three holes in the pedal spring. Make
sure that both pedals are in the same position.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handgrip
pulse sensor and step onto the pedal that is in the low-
est position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the
pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
motion. Note: The pedal disks can turn in either
direction. It is recommended that you move the
pedal disks in the direction shown by the arrow
below; however, for variety, you may turn the pedal
disks in the opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-
als will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.
HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS
The handlebars are
designed to add
upper-body exer-
cise to your work-
outs. Push and pull
the handlebars as
you exercise to
work your arms,
shoulders, and
back.
To exercise only
your lower body,
hold the handgrip
pulse sensor as
you exercise.

To use iFIT.com CD’s or videocassettes, the elliptical
crosstrainer must be connected to your portable CD
player, portable stereo, home stereo, computer with
CD player, or VCR. See HOW TO CONNECT YOUR
CD PLAYER, VCR, OR COMPUTER on page 14.
Note: For information about iFIT.com CD’s or
videocassettes, send an e-mail to
[email protected].
Follow the steps below to use an iFIT.com CD or
video program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 11.
Select the iFIT.com mode.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be selected.
To select the
iFIT.com mode,
press the
iFIT.com button. The indicator near the button will
light and the letters IF will appear in the upper
right corner of the display.
Insert the iFIT.com CD or videocassette.
If you are using an iFIT.com CD, insert the CD
into your CD player. If you are using an iFIT.com
videocassette, insert the videocassette into your
VCR.
Press the play button on your CD player or
VCR.
A moment after the play button is pressed, your
personal trainer will begin guiding you through
your workout. Simply follow your personal trainer’s
instructions.
The program will function in almost the same way
as a preset program (see step 3 on page 12).
However, an electronic “chirping” sound will alert
you when the resistance setting and/or pace set-
ting is about to change.
Note: If the resistance of the elliptical
crosstrainer and/or the pace setting does not
change when a “chirp” is heard:
• Make sure that the indicator near the iFIT.com
button is lit.
• Adjust the volume of your CD player or VCR.
If the volume is too high or too low, the con-
sole may not detect the program signals.
• Make sure that the audio cable is properly
connected and that it is fully plugged in.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.
See step 4 on page 11.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 11.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 6 on page 11.
