XG400 Elliptical
15
When you enter a program, by pressing a program key, then
Enter
key, you have the
option of entering your own personal settings. If you want to workout without
entering new settings, then just press the
Start
key. This will bypass the
programming of data and take you directly to the start of your workout. If you want
to change the personal settings then just follow the instructions in the
Message
Center
. If you start a program without changing the settings, the default or saved
settings will be used.
NOTE
: Age and Weight default settings will change when you enter a new number. So the last Age
and Weight entered will be saved as the new default settings. If you enter your Age and Weight the
first time you use the elliptical, you will not have to enter it every time you work out unless either your
Age or Weight changes, or someone else enters a different Age and Weight.
ENTERING A PROGRAM AND CHANGING SETTINGS
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and
changed to suit your needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to
ensure the readouts are correct. You will be asked for your Age and Weight. Entering
your Age is necessary during the Heart Rate programs to ensure the correct settings
are in the program for your Age. Otherwise the work settings could be too high or
low for you. Entering your Weight aides in calculating a more correct Calorie reading.
Although we cannot provide an exact calorie count, we do want to be as close as
possible.
CALORIE NOTE
: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether
it is in a gym or at home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant
only as a guide to monitor your progress from workout to workout. The only way to
measure your calorie burn accurately is in a clinical setting connected to a host of
machines. This is because every person is different and burns calories at a different
rate. Some good news is that you will continue to burn calories at an accelerated
rate for at least an hour after you have finished exercising!
PROGRAMMING THE CONSOLE
The
Program
Keys
are used to preview each program. When you first turn the
console on you may press each program key to preview what the program profile
looks like. If you decide that you want to try a program, press the corresponding
program key and then press the
Enter
key to select the program and enter into the
data-setting mode.
The elliptical has a built in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the hand
pulse sensors on the stationary handle bars or wearing the heart rate transmitter
(see Using Heart Rate Transmitter section) will start the
Heart
Icon
blinking (this
may take a few seconds). The
Pulse
Display
Window
will display your heart rate, or
Pulse in beats per minute.
The consoles include a built-in fan to help keep you cool. To turn the fan on, press
the button on the left side of the console.
