A message about Calories: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is
in a gym or at home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to
monitor your progress from workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn
accurately is in a clinical setting connected to a host of machines. This is because every person is
different and burns calories at a different rate.
Entering a program/Changing Settings
Press the program keys to scroll through the program selections. The profile for each program will
be displayed in the dot matrix window. Press the enter key to select a program and begin
customizing the 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 window. If you start a program without changing the settings, the default 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 an age and weight the
first time you use the Elliptical you will not have to enter it every time you work out unless either
your age or weight changes or someone else enters a different age and weight.
Programming:
Manual
The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the
workload yourself and not the computer.
1. Press the Manual program button then press the Enter key.
2. The message window will ask you to enter your Weight. You may adjust the weight setting
using the Up and Down keys, then press enter to continue.
3. The message window will ask you to enter your Age. You may adjust the age setting using
the Up and Down keys, then press the Enter key to accept the new number and proceed on
to the next screen.
4. Next is the Time. You may adjust the Time and press enter to continue.
5. Now you are finished editing the settings and can begin your workout by pressing the Start
key.
6. Once the program starts the elliptical will be set to level one. This is the easiest level and it is
a good idea to stay at level one for a while to warm up. If you want to increase the work load
at any time press the Up key; the Down key will decrease the workload.
7. When the program ends the message window will show a summary of your workout. The
summary will be displayed for a short time then the console will return to the start-up display.
