HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER
HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
CROSSTRAINER
To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the pulse sen-
sor and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest posi-
tion. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals
until they begin to move with a continuous motion.
Note: The pedal disks can turn in either direction.
It is recommended that you move the pedal disks
in the direction shown by the arrow below; howev-
er, for variety, you may turn the pedal disks in the
opposite direction.
To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, wait until the
pedals come to a complete stop. Note: The elliptical
crosstrainer does not have a free wheel; the ped-
als 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.
HOW TO USE THE HANDLEBARS
The handlebars are
designed to add
upper-body exer-
cise to your work-
outs. Push and pull
the handlebars as
you exercise to
work your arms,
shoulders, and
back.
To exercise only
your lower body,
hold the pulse sen-
sor as you exer-
cise.
CAUTION:
Before using the ellipti-
cal crosstrainer, read the following precau-
tions.
• Always hold the pulse sensor or the handle-
bars when mounting, dismounting, or using
the elliptical crosstrainer.
• When you stop exercising, allow the pedals to
slowly come to a stop.
• The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
