XE500 Elliptical

NEVER
operate the elliptical without reading and completely understanding the results of
any operational change you request from the computer.
NEVER
use your elliptical during an electrical storm. Surges may occur in your household
power supply that could damage the elliptical electrical components. Unplug the power
supply from the wall during an electrical storm to ensure no damage will occur.
Do not use excessive pressure on console control keys. They are precision set to properly
function with little finger pressure. Pushing harder is not going to make the unit go faster or
slower. If you feel the buttons are not functioning properly with normal pressure, contact your
Spirit dealer.
The elliptical has a safety feature that sets the pedals to the highest resistance setting when
the unit is powered on or if the elliptical is idle. This ensures that the footpads are difficult to
move. This feature prevents a curious child from being harmed. This safety feature also gives
you a stable platform when you first mount the elliptical. Once a program is started, the
resistance setting will change to the first setting of that program. To disengage this feature,
see the maintenance section at the back of this manual.
