CAUTION: Place the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer in a dry place. Do not place in  
highly humid areas, like near swimming pools, as rust and corrosion may occur.  
HOW TO STABILIZE THE TOTAL-BODY ELLIPTICAL CROSS-TRAINER  
12“ (30.5cm)  
Once the cross trainer is positioned in the room adjust the levelers on the front  
stabilizer. The levelers will keep the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer fixed to the  
floor while using it.  
CAUTION: Do not use the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer without the levelers touching the floor.  
After placing the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer where it will be used, check the stability. If there is even a slight rock-  
ing motion, or the unit is not stable, the levelers will need to be adjusted. Determine which leveler is not resting firmly on  
the floor. To adjust the levelers downward twist the rubber portion of the leg counterclockwise. To adjust the levelers  
upward twist the rubber portion of the leg clockwise. Be sure there is a minimum of 5 mm (0.20 in.) of thread showing  
between the leveler and the leveler locking nut.  
Note: After the Cross-Trainer is level, be sure to tighten the nut on the leveler against the stabilizer tube. If this is not  
tightened, noise will occur.  
POWERING UP THE TOTAL-BODY ELLIPTICAL CROSS-TRAINER  
Your Life Fitness Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer may come with either  
a U.S. power supply or one of several international power supplies. Insert the  
appropriate power adapter jack into the connector (A) on the back of the Total-Body  
Elliptical Cross-Trainer. Then insert the plug into the wall outlet. Make sure the cord  
is placed so it doesn't bind and will not be walked on. Then check that the console  
lights up. If not, recheck the plug and the wall connections and make sure the wall  
outlet has power.

MOUNTING THE MACHINE  
When mounting the machine it is recommended that the pedal closest to you is in its lowest position. This can be done by  
pushing the arms to rotate the pedal until it is centered to the side of you at its lowest position. If you are standing to the left  
side of the machine, when facing the console, place your left foot on the pedal closest to you and then swing your right leg  
over to the right pedal. Use the stationary handlebar to stabilize yourself.  
DISMOUNTING THE MACHINE  
Bring the machine to a stop. It is recommended to put the pedal in it’s lowest position on the side of the unit you will be dis-  
mounting. If dismounting the machine on the left side, when facing the console, step off with the right leg first followed by  
the left leg. Use the stationary handlebar for stabilization.

CONTACT HEART RATE  
The X1 includes hand pulse sensors on the stationary handlebar that are a built-in heart rate monitoring system. During a  
workout grasp the hand pulse sensors to monitor your heart rate. We recommend using the heart rate chest strap provided  
with your console during workouts and using the hand pulse sensors to only occasionally monitor your heart rate when not  
using the chest strap. In addition, to utilize heart rate controlled workouts the chest strap must be used. For the most accu-  
rate reading, use a comfortable grip. The console will show a heart rate reading after 15 to 20 seconds.  
Hand pulse sensors can work differently with different body types. With some individuals it can be very difficult to extract a  
heart rate reading. Follow the tips below to improve the heart rate reading:  
·
·
·
·
·
Remove your hands from the heart rate sensors and wait for the heart rate display to clear. Grasp sensors again.  
Make sure hands are fully contacting the sensors.  
Dry hands periodically during use.  
Limit movement.  
Clean hand pulse sensors.  
Note: The heart rate hand pulse sensors provide an approximate heart rate value. The sensors are not medical devices  
and should not be used in any type of medical application.

SERVICE & PRODUCT MAINTENANCE  
5.1 TROUBLESHOOTING  
Problem  
Cause / Solution  
Check to see that the power cord is fully plugged into the back of the  
Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer and into the wall. Make sure the power  
cord is fully seated into the back of the Total-Body Elliptical Cross-Trainer.  
You may be in “Energy Saver Mode”. Press the “Energy Saver” button to  
see if the console turns on.  
No power.  
Verify that all customer assembly connections are working properly.  
Unplug and re-plug each connection to verify. Look to see if any cables  
were pinched during assembly.  
Remove the moving arm pivot covers and check to make certain the bolt  
holding the total body arm in place is fully tightened. If the total body arms  
still feel loose, you may want to disassemble the total body arms and  
make sure all of the proper hardware from the assembly instructions was  
used.  
Total Body Arms feel loose.  
Some noise from the pedals is normal. It will vary depending on the  
weight of the user. Check assembly hardware beneath pedal to make  
certain it is tight.
