HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product
must be
grounded.
If it should
malfunction
or break
down,
grounding
provides a
path of least
resistance for
electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This prod­
uct is equipped with a cord having an equipment­
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. Plug the
power cord Into an appropriate outlet that is prop­
erly installed and grounded in accordance with aii
iocal codes and ordinances. This product is for
use on a nominai 120-voit circuit. Important; The
elliptical exerciser is not compatible with GFCI-
equipped outlets.
OANGER* Improper connection of
the equipment-grounding conductor can result
in an increased risk of electric shock. Check
with a quatlfied electrician or serviceman If
you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product—if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qual­
ified electrician.
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle
as shown at
the right if a
properly
grounded
outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle out­
let box covers are not grounded. Contact a quali­
fied electrician to determine if the outlet box cover
is grounded before using an adapter.
Note: When the power cord is plugged in, the ellip­
tical exerciser’s incline system may automatically
calibrate itself. During the calibration process, two
dashes (—) will appear in the left display of the
console and the ramp will move to the highest
position and then return to the lowest position.
The calibration process will last for one to two
minutes.
EXERCISING ON THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER
To mount the elliptical exerciser, hold the handlebars
and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position.
Next, step onto the other pedal. Push the pedals until
they begin to move with a continuous motion.
To dismount the elliptical exerciser, wait until the ped­
als come to a complete stop. The elliptical exerciser
does not have a free wheel; the pedals will contin­
ue to move until the flywheel stops. When the ped­
als are stationary, step off the highest pedal first.
Then, step off the lowest pedal.
