manual abstract
When a resistance & rpm program is selected, a profile of the resistance settings of the program will scroll across the center of the display. The left side of the display will show how long the program will last. 3. Begin pedaling to start the program. Each program is divided into several one-minute segments. One resistance setting and one pace setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments. The resistance setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column in the center of the display. (Note: The pace settings are not shown in the display.) The resistance settings for the next four segments will be shown in the columns to the right. Current Segment As you exercise, the Pace Coach will prompt you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace setting for the current segment. When one of the “Too Slow” arrows lights, increase your pace. When one of the “Too Fast” arrows lights, decrease your pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain your current pace. When only three seconds remain in the first seg ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash, a series of tones will sound, and all resistance set tings will move one column to the left. The resis tance setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column, and the resistance of the pedals will change to the resistance setting for the second segment. Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit after the resistance settings have moved to the left, the resistance settingsmay move down ward so only the highest indicators appear in the matrix. The program will continue until the resistance setting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column and the last segment ends. Note: During the program, you can override the resistance setting for the current segment, if desired, by pressing the increase or decrease button. However, when the next segment begins, the resistance will change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the next segment. If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. 4. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 11. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 12. 6. Turn on the fan if desired. See step 6 on page 12. 7. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 7 on page 12. 15 MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately. To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid damaging the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight. BATTERY REPLACEMENT If the console displays become dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 4 on page 7 for replacement instructions. HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER After moving the elliptical exerciser to the location where it will be used, make sure that the ends of both stabilizers are touching the floor. If the elliptical exerciser Leveling Foot rocks slightly during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet under the front stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated. HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING • Avoid moving your hands while using the handgrip 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 contacts for about 30 seconds. • For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. 16 EXERCISE GUIDELINES WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems. The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results. EXERCISE INTENSITY Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise. T...
