Dot Matrix Center Display Twenty columns of boxes (10 high) indicate each segment of a workout. The boxes only show an approximate level (resistance) of effort. They do not necessarily indicate a specific value - only an approximate percent to compare levels of intensity.
Quick Start This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up you just press the Start key to begin, this will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero and the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the Level Up/Down keys.

Muscle Activation Figure There is an anatomical figure located at the top of the console. This figure will light all areas that are activated when using the elliptical trainer. These will light up during any of the programs. You can control which muscles are activated by customizing the resistance profile during the set up phase of console programming.

Programming The Console Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit your needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct. You will be asked for your Age and Weight.
Programmable Features Manual The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the workload and not the computer. To start the Manual program, follow the instructions below or just press the Start key. 1. Press the Manual key, then press the Enter key. 2.
Preset Programs The elliptical has five different programs that have been designed for a variety of workouts. These five programs have factory preset work level profiles for achieving different goals. HILL This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual progression from approximately 10% of maximum effort (the level that you chose before starting this program) up to a maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout time, then a gradual...

Programming Preset Programs Select the desired program key then press the Enter key. The Message Center will ask you to enter your Age. You may adjust the age setting, using the Level Up/Down keys, then press the Enter key to accept the new number and proceed on to the next screen. You are now asked to enter your Weight.

Custom User Defined Programs There are two customizable User programs that allow you to build and save your own workout. The two programs, User 1 and User 2, operate exactly the same way so there is no reason to describe them separately.

Heart Rate Programs Before we get started, a word about Heart Rate: The old motto, “no pain, no gain”, is a myth that has been overpowered by the benefits of exercising comfortably. A great deal of this success has been promoted by the use of heart rate monitors. With the proper use of a heart rate monitor, many people find that their usual choice of exercise intensity was either too high or too low and exercise is much more enjoyable by maintaining their heart rate in the desired benefit range.
Rate Of Perceived Exertion Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout.
5. Some people have problems with the transmitter picking up a signal from their skin. If you have problems try wearing the transmitter upside down. Normally the transmitter will be oriented so the Spirit Fitness logo is right side up.
The Spirit Fit App also allows you to sync your workout data with one of many fitness cloud sites we support: iHealth, MapMyFitness, Record or Fitbit, with more to come.

Heart Rate Program Operation Note: You must wear the heart rate transmitter strap for these programs. Both programs operate the same, the only difference is that HR1 is set to 60% and HR2 is set to 80% of the maximum heart rate. They both are programmed the same way. To start an HRC program follow the instructions below or just select the HR1 or HR2 program, then the Enter button and follow the directions in the Message Center.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of several reasons: The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible.
