position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the  
pedals until they begin to move with a continuous  
motion. Note: The crank arms (inside of the side  
shields) can be turned in either direction. It is rec-  
ommended that you turn the crank arms in the  
same direction that you pedal a bicycle; however,  
for variety, you can turn the crank arms in the  
opposite direction.  
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest  
pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal.  
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALS

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE  
sonal trainer in your home. Using the built-in CD player,  
you can play special iFIT.com CD programs. iFIT.com  
CD programs automatically control the resistance of  
the pedals and prompt you to vary your pace while a  
personal trainer coaches you through every step of  
your workout. High-energy music provides added moti-  
vation. Two iFIT.com CDs are included; to purchase  
additional CDs, call toll-free 1-800-735-0768.  
The advanced console offers a selection of features  
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and  
effective. When the manual mode of the console is  
selected, the resistance of the pedals can be changed  
with the touch of a button. As you work out, the con-  
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You  
can even measure your heart rate using the built-in  
handgrip pulse sensor.  
Using a stereo audio cable (available at electronics  
stores), you can also connect the elliptical crosstrainer  
to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs.  
iFIT.com video programs offer the same benefits as  
iFIT.com CD programs, and allow you to enjoy breath-  
taking scenery while you exercise. To purchase  
iFIT.com videocassettes, call toll-free 1-800-735-  
0768.  
The console also offers six Smart programs. Each pro-  
gram automatically changes the resistance of the ped-  
als and prompts you to increase or decrease your pace  
as it guides you through an effective workout. In addi-  
tion, the console features two Heart Rate programs  
that change the resistance of the pedals and prompt  
you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate near a  
target heart rate as you exercise.  
You can even connect the elliptical crosstrainer to your  
home computer, go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com,  
and access programs directly from our Web site.  
Explore www.iFIT.com for more information.

to operate properly. Each time you hold the  
handgrips, keep your hands on the metal con-  
tacts for at least 30 seconds.  
HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM  
Heart Rate program 1 is designed to keep your heart  
rate between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart  
rate during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is  
estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For  
example, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart  
rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart Rate program 2 is  
designed to keep your heart rate near a target heart  
rate that you select.  
Begin pedaling to start the program.  
5
Heart rate program 1 consists of 20 one-minute  
periods. One resistance level and one target heart  
rate are programmed for each period. (Note: The  
same resistance level and/or target heart rate  
may be programmed for two or more consecutive  
periods.) Heart Rate program 2 is sixty minutes  
long (you may choose to use only part of the pro-  
gram). The same resistance level and target heart  
rate are programmed for the entire program.  
Follow the steps below to use a Heart Rate program.  
Turn on the console.  
1
When you begin pedaling, the resistance of the  
pedals will automatically change to the resistance  
level programmed for the first period.  
See step 1 on page 12.  
Select one of the Heart Rate programs.

As you pedal, the  
arrows in the

target heart rate.  
When you hold  
the handgrip pulse sensor, the console will com-  
pare your heart rate to the current target heart  
rate. If your heart rate is too far above or below  
the target heart rate, the number of arrows in the  
small display will change to prompt you to  
increase or decrease your pace. When the num-  
ber of arrows changes, change your pace until  
one segment of the indicator bar appears at the  
tip of each arrow. Important: The target pace is  
intended only to provide a goal. Your actual  
pace may be slower than the target pace,  
especially during the first few months of your  
exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a  
pace that is comfortable for you.  
Enter your age or a target heart rate.  
3
If program 1 is selected, the word AGE and the  
current age setting will appear in the large display.  
If you have already entered your age, press the  
Enter button. If you have not entered your age,  
press the small + and – buttons to enter your age,  
and then press the Enter button. Once you have  
entered your age, it will be saved in memory until  
the batteries are replaced.  
If program 2 is selected, the letters PLS and the  
current target heart rate will appear in the large  
display. If you do not wish to change the target  
heart rate, press the Enter button. If you wish to  
change the target heart rate, press the small +  
and – buttons, and then press the Enter button.  
The target heart rate can be from 70 to 170 beats  
per minute.  
During the last three seconds of each period, a  
series of tones will sound and the time will flash in  
the large display. The resistance of the pedals will  
then change if a different resistance level is pro-  
grammed for the next period. Note: If the resis-  
tance level is too high or too low, you can adjust it  
by pressing the Resistance buttons. However,  
when the next period begins, the resistance will  
automatically change if a different resistance level  
is programmed for the next period.  
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor

It is not necessary to hold the handgrips continu-  
ously during a Heart Rate program; however, you  
must hold the handgrips frequently for the program

The program will continue in this way until the  
large display shows that no time remains in the  
program. Note: If you stop pedaling for a few sec-  
onds, the program will end. To use the program  
again, reselect it and start it at the beginning.  
HOW TO USE IFIT.COM CD PROGRAMS  
When you use an iFIT.com CD program, a certified  
personal trainer will guide you through your workout  
while the program interactively controls the resistance  
of the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease  
your pace. Note: To purchase iFIT.com CDs, call

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
WARNING:  
• Before beginning this or any exercise pro-  
gram, consult your physician. This is espe-  
cially important for persons over the age of  
35 or persons with pre-existing health prob-  
lems.  
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 in your training zone as you exercise.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your  
exercise until your heart rate is near the middle num-  
ber 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 deter-  
mining heart rate trends in general.  
Aerobic Exercise  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exer-  
cise 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 as you exercise.  
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  
burning, 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. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer-  
cise program, 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  
at 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 lower two numbers are recommended heart rates  
for fat burning; the highest number is the recommend-  
ed heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
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 exer-  
cise, you may complete up to five workouts each week  
if desired. The key to success is to make exercise a  
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.  
Fat Burning  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-  
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
