ELLIPTICALS – USER MANUAL
The USER ID feature lets the console recognize individual users and automatically enters weight and
any other required information such as the user’s age when calculating Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)
values for the Cardio programs. The display can store up to eight (8) users. Users may view their
accumulated statistics and reset their totals to zero if desired.
The User ID function includes the following sub-menus: ACTIVATE USER, CREATE USER, EDIT
USER, RESET STATISTICS and DELETE USER.
5.5.1 CREATE USER
Creates a New User if space is available. (maximum 8 users)
A total of six (6) alphanumeric characters can be used to create a user ID name. Use the
INCREASE/DECREASE SEGMENT keys to select any character from A to Z or any number from 0
to 9 to fill in spaces 1 to 6. If you wish to leave a space between characters, simply use the blank
character between 9 and A. Once a space is full, press the INCREASE/DECREASE LEVEL keys to
move to the next and repeat the same procedure to create a user ID name. When you have finished,
press the ENTER key. Next, enter the user’s weight and age and press the ENTER
key to save the
information.
5.5.2 EDIT USER
Edit a User’s stored parameters.
5.5.3 DELETE USER
Deletes a User ID and all parameters saved under that user ID’s name.
5.5.4 TURN USER ID OFF
Turning the USER ID off allows a guest to complete a program without having to use a stored user’s
parameters or add to another users’ statistics bank.
NOTE – You can also turn off the USER ID by pressing and holding the stop key for 3 seconds when
at the HOME SCREEN or by pressing the USER ID key until USER ID OFF is displayed on screen
then pressing the ENTER key. A message will show saying ‘’ID FUNCTION CLEARED”.
5.5.5 STATS
The Stats feature allows users to view and reset the accumulated statistics of the current User ID. No
stats are stored for a GUEST user. These functions may also be accessed directly via the designated
STATS key on the console after a User ID has been selected. If no User ID has been selected,
“SELECT USER ID” will be displayed and the user will be returned to the HOME SCREEN.
5.5.6 View Statistics
Shows the accumulated Time, Distance and Calories for the current User ID.
Use the cumulative stats feature to achieve goals such as walk 20 miles/km in a week or run
the equivalent distance from Boston to New York City in the winter (215 miles / 346 km).
5.5.7 Reset Statistics
Resets the accumulated statistics of the current User ID.
5.6 WARM UP
Warming up before you exercise is strongly recommended. Bodyguard ellipticals have a feature that
allows the user to activate or deactivate a warm up period before the start of most programs. When
the WARM UP option is activated, a warm up screen will be displayed prior to each workout.
The duration of the warm up is four (4) minutes and is divided into three (3) parts.
Programs with Constant Torque and Constant Watts program modes will function like this.
