ELLIPTICALS – USER MANUAL
4.7 MANUAL PROGRAM (G1 on E-40)
The Manual program (displayed as G1 on an E-40) allows you to preset your workout goal/s before
commencing a workout in which the resistance is completely controlled by the user at all times.
On an E-40, a Time, Distance or Calories parameter that has been preset will count down to zero
and beep for 8 seconds once achieved (press any button to stop the beeper) then the parameter will
begin counting upwards if the user continues exercising. A preset Pulse parameter between 30 and
199 can be set and will beep once achieved and keep beeping if the detected heart rate stays above
the preset value.
Note: The cycling animation on the E-40 will move forward once every 0.1 km/mile.
4.8 CALORIE GOAL PROGRAM
The Calorie Goal Program allows the user to select a predetermined quantity of calories they wish to
burn during the workout. At any time during the program the resistance may be manually changed
which will modify the length of time it will take to burn the target calories and achieve the goal. Also,
manually modifying the speed or incline will change the entire profile for the remainder of the
program. The program ends when the calorie goal is achieved.
4.9 DISTANCE GOAL PROGRAM
The Distance Goal Program allows the user to select a predetermined distance they wish to cover
during their workout. At any time during the program the resistance may be manually changed which
will modify the length of time it will take to achieve the goal. Also, manually modifying the resistance
will change the entire profile for the remainder of the program. The program ends when the distance
goal is achieved.
4.10 CROSS-COUNTRY PROGRAM
The Cross-Country Program is a distance based program that simulates a elliptical ride through a
range of hills of low to mid intensity. The principle difference with the Cross-Country Program is the
length of the intensity periods is longer than that of an interval program so as to replicate riding long
gradual climbs. This type of workout is a great blend of aerobic exercise and strength training. Users
may select from a range of levels, which will gradually increase the gradient of the hills.
4.11 INTERVAL PROGRAM
Interval Training has many benefits such as increasing the metabolism, which results in more
calories being burned all day long, as well as increasing average exercise speed, making it a great
way to increase average pace and improve race times. The Interval Program allows users to
alternate their workout intensity between high-intensity “work” periods and preset low- intensity “rest”
periods. The Interval Program allows you to select from 3 Work-Rest Ratios and a range of Work and
Rest Intensity levels. Users can change the level of intensity of the profile at any time during the
workout by pressing the INCREASE/DECREASE keys and those changes will stay in effect for the
remainder of the workout.
