Note: The console can display speed and distance
in either miles or kilometers. To determine which
unit of measure-
ment is selected,
hold down the Start
Program button for
three seconds. An
E (for English
miles) or an M (for
metric kilometers)
will appear in the
matrix. To change
the unit of mea-
surement, press
the + button. While an E or an M appears in the
matrix, the left display will show the total numbers
of hours that the elliptical crosstrainer has been
used, and the right display will show the total num-
ber of miles pedaled. When you are finished view-
ing this information, press the Start Program but-
ton again.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you wear the optional chest pulse sen-
sor (see page 19) and hold the handgrip pulse
sensor at the same time, the console may not
display your heart rate accurately.
If there are
thin sheets of
plastic on the
metal con-
tacts on the
handgrip
pulse sensor,
peel off the
plastic. To
measure your
heart rate, place your hands on the contacts; your
palms must be resting on the contacts closest to
you, and your fingers must be touching the other
contacts. Avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is
detected, the heart
rate indicator above
the right display will
light, dashes may
appear in the dis-
play, and then your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate
heart rate reading, continue holding the contacts
for about 15 seconds. Note: If your heart rate is
not shown, make sure that your hands are posi-
tioned as described. Be careful not to move your
hands excessively or to squeeze the metal con-
tacts too tightly.
When you hold the pulse sensor, the right display
will show your heart rate for about 15 seconds. If
you continue to hold the pulse sensor, the display
will show your heart rate along with the distance
you have pedaled and the number of calories you
have burned.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
If the console buttons are not pressed and the
pedals are not moved for a few minutes, the con-
sole will automatically turn off.
