SELECT PROGRAM

Press PROGRAMS at any time to display the programs selection screen. Scroll through the program
previews with center “+/-” keys and select the Army 2 Mile Fitness Test by pressing NEXT. The display
will now ask you to enter your age.

ENTER YOUR AGE

Using the keypad or center “+/-” keys, select your age from 10-99 and press
ENTER, NEXT, or wait three seconds. This affects the scaling of the fitness
score since it references the user’s demographics.

ENTER YOUR GENDER

Using the center “+” key, toggle between MALE and FEMALE to select your
gender. Once your gender is displayed on the center display, press ENTER,
NEXT, or wait three seconds. This affects the scaling of the fitness score since
it references the user’s demographics.

Press the

button.

Complete the 2-mile run as fast as possible by manually controlling your speed. Hitting PAUSE, STOP, MANUAL, HRC, or
PROGRAMS during the test will invalidate and terminate the test.

As soon as you begin, the Goal Progress screen becomes available. This screen shows your Specific Goal (2 Miles), time
remaining until completion, Projected Score and other statistics. The distance statistic is counting down (noted by
negative sign).

As you pedal faster to increase your speed, the elliptical will automatically
increase the effort level yielding a faster “running” (MPH) speed. Vice versa,
when you slow down, the elliptical will automatically decrease effort level
yielding a slower “running” (MPH) speed.

Upon completion, you will receive a score 0-100 and fitness assessment based on your time and demographics.

SELECT PROGRAM

Press the HRC button at any time to display the HRC programs selection screen. Scroll through the program
previews with center “+/-” keys and select the Balke Fitness Test by pressing NEXT. The display will now ask you
to enter your age.

ENTER YOUR AGE

Using the keypad or center “+/-” keys, select your age from 10-99 and press ENTER,
NEXT, or wait three seconds. This determines the test’s target pulse and the scaling of
the fitness assessment since it references the user’s demographics.

ENTER YOUR GENDER

Once your gender is displayed on the center display, press ENTER, NEXT, or wait
three seconds. This affects the scaling of the fitness score since it references the user’s
demographics.

***Note: Before pressing start, you will be prompted with the heart rate that the fitness test will target. This heart rate calculation is
derived from statistical heart rate capacity averages (see Heart Rate Monitoring). If you are uncomfortable with the target heart rate
displayed or feel discomfort at any point during the fitness test, stop the test.***

Press the

button.

You must hold the contact grips or wear
your wireless chest strap during the
entire test. If the elliptical loses a heart
rate signal for more than 30 seconds, the
test will be invalidated and terminated.

This HRC fitness test is fully automated
and will increase in difficulty from
segment to segment until the user
achieves the target heart rate (80% of
maximum heart rate). Once you reach
the target pulse, a 30 second countdown
will follow and end the test. Any key-
strokes during the test besides NEXT will
invalidate and terminate the test.

As soon as you begin, the Heart Rate
Status screen becomes available. This
screen shows your Target Pulse, Time,
Heart Rate Status, and Time in Zone.

Upon completion, you will receive a
