If there are
sheets of plastic
on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip heart
rate monitor,
remove the
plastic.
To mea-
sure your heart
rate, hold the
handgrip heart
rate monitor with your palms resting against the
contacts.
Avoid moving your hands or gripping
the contacts tightly.
When your pulse is detected, a heart symbol in the
calorie display will flash each time your heart beats,
one or two dashes will appear, and then your heart
rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart
rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds.
If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the contacts tightly. For optimal perfor-
mance, clean the contacts using a soft cloth;
never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the contacts.

The fan has low and high
speed settings. Press the Fan
increase and decrease but-
tons repeatedly to select a fan
speed or to turn off the fan.

seconds, the fan will turn off automatically.

off and the display will be reset.
When you are finished exercising, press the power
switch to the off position and unplug the power
cord.

electrical components on the elliptical may
wear prematurely.
