  If the Bluetooth Heart Rate is not displayed, fully charge the HR device and activate it, ensuring any protective cover is removed from the sensors. Make sure the sensors are directly against the skin and the contact area is wet. If your HR device has replaceable batteries, install new ones. Also, try moving the elliptical trainer away from potential sources of interference like TVs or microwaves. If the issue persists after eliminating interference, consider replacing the HR device.

  If your Bowflex Elliptical Trainer rocks or doesn't sit level, check the leveler adjustments and adjust them until the machine is level. Also, consider that the surface beneath the unit might be too uneven for the levelers to compensate. If so, move the machine to a more level area.

  If the pedals on your Bowflex Elliptical Trainer won't move, they may be 'bottomed out'. Grasp the static handlebars and apply your weight to the heel of the higher foot. While still grasping the handlebars, lean back slightly, applying more weight onto the heel. Once the pedals begin to move, resume your workout.

Why Bowflex MAX TRAINER MAX TOTAL Elliptical Trainer fan will not turn?
- C
  Crystal HernandezAug 28, 2025
  If the fan won't turn, check for any blockage and remove any material obstructing it. Be careful not to move the handlebars, legs, or pedals while doing this, as they are all connected. If necessary, detach the shrouds to help with removal. Do not operate the machine until the shrouds have been replaced.
