HOW TO USE THE HEART RATE MONITOR
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
rate monitor shuts off when it is removed and the
electrode areas are dried. If the heart rate monitor is
not dried after each use, the battery may be drained
prematurely.
The heart rate monitor has two components: a chest
strap and a sensor unit (see the drawing below). Insert
the tab on one end of the chest strap into one end of
the sensor unit, as shown in the inset drawing. Press
the end of the sensor unit under the buckle on the
chest strap. The tab should be flush with the front of
the sensor unit.
• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do
not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or
other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct sun-
light for extended periods of time or to temperatures
above 122° F (50° C) or below 14° F (-10° C).
Chest Strap
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the sensor unit
when using or storing the heart rate monitor.
• Clean the sensor unit using a damp cloth—never use
alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. Hand wash and air
dry the heart rate monitor.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Unit
Sensor Unit
If the heart rate monitor does not function properly, try
the suggestions below.
Next, wrap the heart
rate monitor around
your chest and attach
the other end of the
chest strap to the sen-
sor unit. Adjust the
length of the chest
strap, if necessary.
The heart rate monitor should be under your clothes,
tight against your skin, and as high under the pectoral
muscles or breasts as is comfortable. Make sure that
the logo on the sensor unit is facing forward and is
right-side-up.
• Make sure that you are wearing the heart rate
monitor as described at the left. Note: If the heart
rate monitor does not function when positioned as
described, move it slightly lower or higher on your
chest.
Logo
• Use saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution to wet the two electrode areas on the sensor
unit. If heart rate readings do not appear until you
begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• Position yourself near the console. For the console
to display heart rate readings, the user must be
within arm’s length of the console.
Pull the sensor unit away from your body a few inches
and locate the two electrode areas on the inner side
(the electrode areas are covered by shallow ridges).
Using saline solution such as saliva or contact lens
solution, wet both electrode areas. Return the sensor
unit to a position against your chest.
• The heart rate monitor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical condi-
tions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• The operation of the heart rate monitor can be
affected by magnetic interference caused by high
power lines or other sources. If it is suspected that
this is a problem, try relocating the elliptical.
• Dry the heart rate monitor after each use. The heart
rate monitor is activated when you wet the electrode
areas and put on the heart rate monitor; the heart

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button. While you exercise, the console will display
continuous exercise feedback. You can also measure
your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor or
the included chest heart rate monitor.
The console offers thirty onboard workouts—fifteen cal-
orie workouts and fifteen performance workouts. Each
workout automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also features an iFit Live mode that
enables the console to communicate with your wireless
network through an optional iFit Live module. With the
iFit Live mode, you can download personalized work-
outs, create your own workouts, track your workout
results, race against other runners, and access many
other features. To purchase an iFit Live module at
number on the front cover of this manual.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite
music or audio books while you exercise.
To use the manual mode, see page 16. To use the
sound system, see page 17. To use an onboard
workout, see page 18. To use an iFit Live work-
out, see page 19. To change console settings,

The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. The time will flash in the display. To
resume the workout, simply resume pedaling.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target speed
is programmed for each segment. Note: The same
resistance level and/or target speed may be pro-
grammed for consecutive segments.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-
cise 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.
WARNING:
Before beginning this
or any exercise program, consult your physi-
cian. This is especially important for persons
over age 35 or persons with pre-existing
health problems.
The heart rate monitor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The heart rate monitor 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 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.
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.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body
temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation
for exercise.
Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your
cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-
sity 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.
Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-
utes 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 stretch-
ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles
and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the
bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-
est 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.
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. Remember, the key to success is to make
exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
