HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note:
The pedal disks can turn in either direction. It is
recommended that you move the pedal disks in
the direction shown by the arrow; however, for
variety, you may turn the pedal disks in the oppo-
site direction.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped-
als come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.

The easy-to-use console offers a selection of features
designed to help you get the most from your workouts.
Follow the instructions below to operate the console.
Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries.
See assembly step 3 on page 5 for battery instal-
lation instructions.
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
(see the drawing above to identify the On/Reset
button). Note: Moving the pedals is another way to
turn on the console.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of
the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped-
als by pressing the + and – buttons below the
large display. There are ten resistance levels—
level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the
buttons are pressed, it will take a few seconds for
the resistance to reach the selected setting.
Follow your progress with the small display
and the large display.
The small display will
show your pedaling pace,
in revolutions per minute
(RPM). The indicator bar
in the small display will
increase or decrease in
length as you increase or
decrease your pedaling
pace. Note: When you
use the handgrip pulse
sensor, the small display will show your heart
rate (see step 4 on page 10).
The upper sec-
tion of the large
display will
show the dis-
tance you have
pedaled and the
numbers of
calories and fat calories you have
burned (see FAT BURNING on page 13 for an
explanation of fat calories). The display will
change from one number to the next every few
seconds.
