HOW TO OPERATE THE STEPPER
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and
effective. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, the stepping speed can be changed with the
touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will
display continuous exercise feedback. You can even
measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sen-
sor or the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 15).
The console also offers four preset workout programs.
Each program automatically changes the stepping
speed as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also features new iFIT.com interactive
technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a
personal trainer in your home. Using the included
audio cable, you can connect the stepper to your home
stereo, portable stereo, or computer and play special
iFIT.com CD programs (iFIT.com CD’s are available
separately). IFIT.com CD programs automatically con-
trol the stepping speed as a personal trainer coaches
you through every step of your workout. High-energy
music provides added motivation. Each CD features
two programs designed by certified personal trainers.
For information about the availability of iFIT.com
CD’s, call toll-free 1-888-936-4266.
With the stepper connected to your computer, you can
also go to our Web site and access programs directly
from the internet.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE STEPPER
Hold the handle-
bars and step onto
the pedals. Begin
stepping with a
smooth, continu-
ous motion.
Because the ped-
als move indepen-
dently of each
other, you must
maintain a continu-
ous motion or both
pedals will sink to
the floor. Change
the stepping speed
(see step 3 on
page 9) until you
can comfortably
maintain a continu-
ous motion.
As you step, you can exercise your upper leg muscles
by keeping your feet flat on the pedals. To focus on
your calf muscles, rise on your toes as you step.
Stand erect or lean forward slightly as you exercise.
Always keep your back straight to avoid injury.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it before using the console.
