HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the upper body
arms and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest
position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the
pedals until they begin to move with a continuous
motion.
Note: The pedal discs can turn in either direction. It is
recommended that you move the pedal discs in the
direction shown by the arrow;
however, for variety, you may turn the pedal discs
in the opposite direction.
The upper body arms are designed to add upper-
body exercise to your workouts. As you exercise,
push and pull the upper body arms to work your
arms, shoulders, and back. To focus on lower-body
exercise, hold the upper body arms but do not push
or pull them as you exercise.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
exerciser does not have a free wheel; the pedals
will continue to move until the flywheel stops.
When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest
pedal first. Then, step off the lower pedal.
MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE IF DESIRED
You can measure you heart rate using the
handgrip pulse sensor.
If there are sheets of clear plastic on the metal
contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor, remove
the plastic. In addition, make sure that your hands
are clean. To measure your heart rate, hold the
handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting
against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your
hands or gripping the contacts tightly.
When you are finished exercising
If the pedals do not move for several minutes and
the buttons are not pressed, the console will turn
off and the display will be reset.
