Program Keys
The program keys are used to preview each program. When you first turn the console on you may
press each program key to preview what the program profile looks like. If you decide that you want to
try a program, press the corresponding program key and then press the Enter key to select the
program and enter into the data-setting mode.
The elliptical trainer has a built in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the hand pulse
sensors on the stationary handle bars or wearing the heart rate transmitter (see Using Heart Rate
Transmitter section) will start the Heart Icon blinking (this may take a few seconds).The Pulse Display
Window will display your heart rate, or Pulse in beats per minute.
The console includes a built-in fan to help keep you cool. To turn the fan on, press the key on the left
side of the console.
Programming The Console
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your
needs. Some of the information is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will be asked for
your Age and Weight. Entering your Age is necessary during the Heart Rate programs to ensure the
correct predicted target heart rate zone. Entering your Weight aids in calculating a more correct Calorie
reading. Although we cannot provide an exact calorie count, we do want to be as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym or at
home, are only an estimate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor your
progress from workout to workout.
Entering A Program And Changing Settings
When you enter a program, by pressing a program key, then Enter key, you have the option of entering
your own personal settings. If you want to workout without entering new settings, then just press the
Start key. This will bypass the programming of data and take you directly to the start of your workout.
If you want to change the personal settings then just follow the instructions in the Message Center. If
you start a program without changing the settings, the default or saved settings will be used.
NOTE: Age and Weight default settings will change when you enter a new number. So the last Age and Weight entered will
be saved as the new default settings. If you enter your Age and Weight the first time you use the elliptical trainer, you will
not have to enter it ever y time you work out unless either your Age or Weight changes, or someone else enters a different
Age and Weight.
