Inspect and tighten all parts of the elliptical exerciser

regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the elliptical exerciser, use a damp cloth and

a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid

damage to the console, keep liquids away from

the console and keep the console out of direct

sunlight.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console display becomes dim, the batteries

should be replaced; most console problems are the

result of low batteries. See assembly step 12 on page

11 for replacement instructions.

HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console does not display your heart rate when

you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, or if the displayed

heart rate appears to be too high or too low, see step

5 on page 15.

HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER

If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly on your floor

during use, see HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL

EXERCISER on page 12.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while

the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the

drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the

drive belt, first remove the screws from the left and

right side shields (not shown). Gently pull the side

shields apart and remove the convenience tray.

Next, locate the Idler Screw (68) and loosen it one

half turn. Step onto the elliptical exerciser and move

the pedals. If the pedals continue to slip, turn the Idler

Screw another half turn and test the pedals again.

Continue in this way until the pedals no longer slip.

Then, replace the convenience tray and reattach the

side shields.
