Measure your heart rate regularly
5
During the program, slow your striding speed
briefly and measure your heart rate regularly
(refer to step 5 on page 7). Each time you mea-
sure your heart rate, the resistance of the pedals
will automatically increase or decrease, if neces-
sary, to keep your heart rate near the preselected
percentage of your maximum heart rate. It is not
necessary to keep your hands on the metal con-
tacts when you are not measuring your heart
rate. Note: If your heart rate is not shown,
press the reset button to reset the pulse sen-
sor.
When you are finished exercising, turn off the
6
power
To turn off the power, simply wait for about
three minutes. If the pedals are not moved and
the console buttons are not pressed for three
minutes, the power will turn off automatically.
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handle-
bars and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest posi-
tion. Next, step onto the other pedal. Center your feet
on the pedals. Push the pedals until they begin to
move with a continuous motion. Note: The pedals can
turn in either direction; turn the pedals in the direction
that is the most comfortable for you.
Pedals
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, allow the pedals
to slowly come to a stop. CAUTION: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a freewheel; 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 lowest pedal.
