Note: It is important to always follow the correct order of steps when folding your elliptical trainer.
STEP 1:
The first step is to position the elliptical pedal arms in the proper position. The pedal arms
can be positioned in two different positions for convenience. The first position is to rotate the left
pedal arm so that it is in the backmost position (the left pedal arm wheel should be positioned at the
rear of the elliptical trainer). The second position would be to rotate the right pedal arm in the back-
most position.
STEP 2:
Carefully raise both the pedal arm (in the backmost position) and guide rail simultaneous-
ly.
STEP 3:
Press and hold the lock latch button located underneath the guide rail end cap. Align the
lock latch with the lock latch receiver located underneath the pedal arm. Insert the lock latch receiv-
er into the lock latch. Release the lock latch button once the lock latch is secure.
STEP 4:
Repeat process for alternate side.
Note: It is important to always follow the correct order of steps when unfolding your elliptical trainer.
STEP 1:
Firmly grasp both the left pedal arm and guide rail. Press and release the lock latch receiv-
er from the lock latch. Carefully lower the pedal arm and guide rail, standing to the side to avoid
any accidental release of the alternate pedal arm and guide rail.
STEP 2:
Repeat process for alternate side.

Always consult your physician before beginning an exercise program.
HOW OFTEN?
The American Heart Association recommends that you exercise at least 3 to 4 days per week to main-
tain cardiovascular fitness. If you have other goals such as weight or fat loss, you will achieve your
goal faster with more frequent exercise. Whether itís 3 days or 6 days, remember that your ultimate
goal should be to make exercise a lifetime habit. Many people are successful staying with a fitness
program if they set aside a specific time of day to exercise. It doesnít matter whether itís in the morn-
ing before your shower, during lunch hour or while watching the evening news. Whatís more impor-
tant is that itís a time that allows you to keep a schedule, and a time when you wonít be interrupted.
If you are to be successful with your fitness program, you have to make it a priority in your life. So
decide on a time, pull out your day planner and pencil in your exercise times for the next month!
HOW LONG?
For aerobic exercise benefits, itís recommended that you exercise from between 24 and 32 minutes
per session. But start slowly and gradually increase your exercise times. If youíve been sedentary
during the past year, it may be a good idea to keep your exercise times to as little as five minutes
initially. Your body will need time to adjust to the new activity. If your goal is weight loss, a longer
exercise session at lower intensities has been found to be most effective. A workout time of 48 min-
utes or more is recommended for best weight loss results.
