HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

The elliptical exerciser requires no batteries or
external power source. Power is supplied by a
generator while you are pedaling. To activate
the console, begin pedaling at a moderate pace.
After a few seconds, the console displays will
light. A tone will then sound and the console will
be ready for use.
Select the manual mode.

When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected and a
track will appear in
the display. If you

program, reselect the manual mode by pressing
the Manual button.

tions. If a distance goal was set, the display will
