Set your weight before every workout. This
allows the Z8.1e Elliptical to control your
workout more effectively.
The body weight setting does not affect the
calorie expenditure calculation. Unlike
treadmills or other weight-bearing
exercises, calories burned during exercise
biking does not change with different body weights.
Place your feet anywhere on the foot
pads.
Most riders prefer their feet to be as
close together as possible, but choose
your own position for maximum
comfort.
Press the Stride Length keys , at any time. During
adjustment, both the target and actual stride length is
displayed. The stride length is permanently displayed in the
lower-left corner of the screen.
