Basic information
The
Message Window
will initially be displaying Speed information. Each time the Enter button is
pressed the next set of information will appear, four windows in all. In order: Speed in RPM and
MPH, Work Level and Watts. If the Enter button is pressed during the Level and Watts display the
Scan light will come on and the message window will show each set of data for four seconds then
switch to the next set of data in a continuous loop. Pressing the Enter button again will bring you
back to the beginning.
The Elliptical has a built in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the hand pulse sensors
on the stationary handle bars, will start the
Heart Icon
blinking (this may take a few seconds).
The Pulse Display Window will display your heart rate, or Pulse, in beats per minute.
The
Stop/Reset
button actually has several functions. Pressing the Stop/Reset key once during a
program will
Pause
the program for 5 minutes. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone or
any of the many things that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume your
workout during Pause just press the Start key. If the Stop/Reset button is pressed twice during a
workout the program will end and the console will return to the start up screen. If the Stop/Reset
key is held down for 3 seconds the console will perform a complete
Reset.
During data entry for a
program the Stop/Reset key performs a
Previous Screen
function. This allows you to go back
one step in the programming each time you press the Stop/Reset key.
The
Program Keys
are used to preview each program. When you first turn the console on you
may press each program key to preview what the program profile looks like. If you decide that you
want to try a program, press the corresponding program key and then press the Enter key to
select the program and enter into the data setting mode. The program keys also act as a
Number
Key Pad
when you are in the data setting mode. Under each program key is a number. If you are
setting new data, such as Age, weight etc., you can use these keys to enter the numbers quickly.
Programming the console
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your
needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will
be asked for your
Age
and
Weight
. Entering your
Age
is necessary during the Heart Rate control
programs to ensure the correct settings are in the program for your Age. Otherwise the work
settings could be too high or low for you. Entering your
Weight
helps us to calculate a more
correct
Calorie
reading.
Manual
The Manual program works as the name implies; manually. This means that you control the
workload yourself and not the computer. To start the Manual program follow the instructions below
or just press the Manual button then the Enter button and follow the directions in the message
window.
Preset Programs
The Elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These
five programs have factory preset profiles for achieving different goals. The initial built-in level of
difficulty for each program is set to a relatively easy level. You may adjust the level of difficulty for
each program before beginning by following the instructions in the message window after
selecting your program.
