soft cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasives  
or solvents. To prevent damage to the console, keep  
liquids away from the console and keep the console  
out of direct sunlight.  
Switch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated  
M4 x 16mm Screw (60). Slide the Reed Switch slight-  
ly closer to or away from the Magnet, and then  
retighten the Screw. Rock the Flywheel forward and  
back 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 side shields. Note: If you have  
questions regarding which screw should be in which  
hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 19 and  
the PART LIST on page 17.  
When storing the elliptical exerciser, remove the bat-  
teries from the console. Keep the elliptical exerciser in  
a clean, dry location, away from moisture and dust.  
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING  
HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT  
If the console does not function properly, the batteries  
should be replaced. To replace the batteries, see  
assembly step 8 on page 8.  
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,  
even when the resistance of the pedals is at the high-  
est setting, the Belt (37) may need to be adjusted.  
First, remove all of the screws from both side shields;  
there are three sizes of screws in the side  
shields—note which size of screw you remove  
from each hole.  
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING  
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-  
ly, make sure that your hands are positioned as  
described in step 5 on page 12. Be careful not to  
move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal  
contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, clean  
the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alco-  
hol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean the contacts.  
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 side shields; there are three  
sizes of screws in the side shields—note which  
size of screw you remove from each hole.

Next, locate the Reed Switch (47). Turn the Flywheel  
(48) until the Magnet (53) is aligned with the Reed  
Next, loosen the M8 x 19mm Flat Head Bolt (61) and  
turn the Adjustment Screw (62) until the Belt (37) is  
tight. Once the Belt is tight, tighten the Flat Head Bolt.  
Then, reattach the side shields. Note: If you have  
questions regarding which screw should be in which  
hole, see EXPLODED DRAWING B on page 19 and  
the PART LIST on page 17.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
WARNING:  
Before beginning this or any exercise pro-  
gram, consult your physician. This is espe-  
cially important for individuals over the age  
of 35 or individuals withpre-existing health  
problems.  
Fat Burning  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-  
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-  
gy. 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 num-  
ber or the middle number in your training zone as you  
exercise.  
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 determin-  
ing heart rate trends in general.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exercise  
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for  
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand  
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the  
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,  
adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart  
rate is near the highest number in your training zone.  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your  
exercise program. Remember that 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, the key to achieving the  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burn-  
ing, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.  
WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching  
and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your  
body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa-  
ration for exercise.  
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-  
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training  
zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise pro-  
gram, do not keep your heart rate in your training  
zone for longer than 20 minutes.)  
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This  
will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will  
help to prevent post-exercise problems.  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to  
the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers  
above your age; the three numbers are your “training  
zone.” The lowest number is the recommended heart  
rate for fat burning; the middle number is the recom-  
mended heart rate for maximum fat burning; and the  
highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three work-  
outs 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. The key to success is make exercise a regu-  
lar and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
