If you selected one of the pacer programs, two Target columns of bars will appear in the display. The left column will show one bar, indicating a relatively slow pace. The right column will show your actual exercising pace. Adjust your exercising pace until only one bar appears in the right column. Each time the target pace changes during the program, adjust your exercising pace to keep both columns at the same height. Follow your progress with the LED track and the seven monitor modes The LED track— The LED track represents a distance of 0.25 kilometres or miles. As you exercise, the indicators around the track will light one at a time until you have completed one lap. A new lap will then begin. 12 5 The scan mode— Repeatedly press the mode button until an arrow appears under the scan symbol. When the scan mode is selected, the console will display the speed, time, distance, lap and calorie modes, for 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle. Mode Arrow Mode Button The speed, time, dis tance, lap, or calorie mode— Repeatedly press the mode button until an arrow appears below or above the desired mode symbol. Make sure that there is not an arrow under the scan symbol. The pulse mode—To use the pulse mode, see step 5. To reset the display, press the on/reset button. Measure your heart rate if desired To use the pulse sensor, place your hands on the metal contacts. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving your hands. After a moment, the heart-shaped indicator in the display will begin to flash and your Metal Contacts heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. Make sure that your hands are positioned as described above, and that you are not moving your hands excessively or squeezing the metal contacts too tightly. 6 Turn off the power To turn off the power, simply wait for about six minutes. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for six minutes, the power will turn off automatically. HOW TO SELECT KILOMETRES OR MILES The console can display distance and speed in either kilometres or miles. If a “KPH” appears in the display, distance and speed will be shown in kilometres; if a “KPH” does not appear, distance and speed will be shown in miles. To change the unit of measurement, first remove the four indicated screws from the console. Lift the console a few inches and turn it over; be careful not to pull on the wires. Next, locate the small switch on the back of the console. Slide the switch up or down to change the unit of measurement. Reattach the console with the four screws; be careful not to pinch any of the wires.

For smooth operation of the elliptical crosstrainer, the incline frame should be kept clean. Using a soft cloth and mild detergent, clean dust and other residue from the incline frame where the wheels make contact with it. Other parts of the elliptical crosstrainer can also be cleaned in this manner. Never use abrasives or solvents. Incline Frame Wheel LUBRICATING THE INCLINE BRACKET The incline bracket and the bolt on which it pivots should be regularly lubricated. Apply a small amount of the included lubricant to the bolt and between the bracket and the upright. Incline BracketBolt Upright HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER If the elliptical crosstrainer does not sit flat on the floor, one or both of the levelling pads should be adjusted. First, loosen the jam nut on each levelling Pad Jam Nut pad. Next, turn the levelling pads as needed until the elliptical crosstrainer is level. When the levelling pads are properly adjusted, firmly retighten the jam nuts. PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING • Avoid moving your hands whilst using the pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart rate readings. • Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate readings. • For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the metal cont...
