CONSOLE DIAGRAM

Resistance Dial

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an array of features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the console, you can change the resistance of the pedals with a touch of the dial. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

The console offers sixteen trainer workouts. Each workout automatically changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective workout.

You can also use two calorie goal workouts designed to help you burn 150 or 200 calories. The calorie goal workouts automatically control the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace while counting the calories you burn.

In addition, the console offers two heart rate workouts that change the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate while you exercise.

IMPORTANT: Before you use the console for the first time, you must select BIKE or ELLIPTICAL; if you do not do this, the console will not display correct feedback. (See HOW TO ENTER CONSOLE

SETTINGS on page 15.)

Each heart rate workout is divided into 30 oneminute segments. One target heart rate is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate may be programmed for consecutive segments.

During the workout, the workout profile in the display will show your progress. The flashing segment of the profile represents the current segment of the workout. The height of the flashing segment indicates the target heart rate for the current segment. At the end of each segment of the workout, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash.

The console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate for the current segment of the workout. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

Each time the resistance changes, the resistance level will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you.

As you exercise, you will be prompted to pedal at a steady pace. When an upward arrow appears in the display, increase your pace. When a downward arrow appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow appears, maintain your current pace.

20

IMPORTANT: Make sure to pedal at a pace that

is comfortable for you. Note: If the resistance level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by turning the resistance dial; however, if you change the resistance level, you might not maintain the target heart rate. Also, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate, the resistance of the pedals may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.

The workout will continue in this way until the last segment ends. To stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout, simply resume pedaling.

6. Follow your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 16.

7. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.

See step 6 on page 17.

THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR

The optional Polar-compatible chest pulse sensor provides hands-free operation and continuously monitors your heart rate during your workouts. To purchase the optional chest pulse sensor, see the front cover of this manual.

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 damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console displays become dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on page 8 for replacement instructions.

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 17.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. First, remove all of the screws from both shields; there are three sizes of screws in the shields—note which size of screw

you remove from each hole. Then, gently pry the shields away from the frame.

Next, locate the

Reed Switch (58).

Turn the Left

Pedal Disc (26) until a Magnet

(41) is aligned with the Reed

Switch. Loosen,

58

84

41 26 but do not remove, the indicated M4 x

16mm Round

Head Screw (84).

Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the Magnet, and then retighten the Screw. Rock the

Left Pedal Disc forward and backward just enough that the Magnet passes the Reed Switch repeatedly.

Repeat until the console displays correct feedback.

When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the shields. Note: If you have questions as to which screw should be in which hole, see EXPLODED

DRAWING B on page 27 and the PART LIST on page

25.

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT

If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance of the pedals is at the highest setting, the Belt (46) may need to be adjusted.

First, remove all the screws from both shields; there are three sizes of screws in the shields—note which size of screw you remove from each hole.

Then, gently pry the shields away from the frame.

Next, turn the Belt

Adjustment Screw

(72) until the Belt

(46) is tight.

Then, reattach the shields. Note:

If you have questions as to which screw should be in which hole, see

EXPLODED

DRAWING B on page 27 and the

PART LIST on page 25.

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.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
