I nspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical regularly.
Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the elliptical, use a damp cloth and a small
amount of mild soap.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage
to the console, keep liquids away from the console
and keep the console out of direct sunlight.
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console does not turn on, make sure that the
power cord is fully plugged in. If lines appear in the
console display, see HOW TO CHANGE CONSOLE
SETTINGS on page 24 and adjust the contrast level
of the display.
If the console does not display your heart rate when
you hold the handgrip heart rate monitor, or if the dis-
played heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see
step 5 on page 20.
If the console does not display your heart rate
when you use the chest heart rate monitor, see
TROUBLESHOOTING on page 15.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use,
see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL on page 16.
HOW TO CALIBRATE THE RAMP
If the ramp is not functioning properly, the ramp may
need to be calibrated. To calibrate the ramp, press and
hold the 12 Calorie Workouts button for several sec-
onds until the test mode appears in the display.
Press the 12 Calorie Workouts button again. Then,
press the 1 Step Ramp increase or decrease button
to calibrate the ramp. The ramp will move upward and
downward as it calibrates.
When the ramp stops moving, the ramp is calibrated.
Then, press the 12 Calorie Workouts button repeatedly
to exit the calibration mode.
HOW TO GREASE THE ROLLERS
See the EXPLODED DRAWING near the end of this
manual. If the Rollers (51) squeak when moving on
the Tracks (16), apply a small amount of white marine
grease equally to each Roller. Spread the grease
evenly around the Rollers. Pedal the elliptical until a
thin
fi
lm of grease is distributed along the Tracks; then,
wipe off any excess grease.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted.
See EXPLODED DRAWING C on page 35. Using a
flat screwdriver, remove the left Disc (71).
Note: For clarity, the left shield and the left disc ring are
shown removed in the drawing below.
Next, locate the Reed Switch (38). Turn the Pulley (19)
until a Magnet (43) is aligned with the Reed Switch.
