CONSOLE OPERATION
BASIC INFORMATION
The Elliptical has a built-in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasp the Contact Heart Rate
Sensors on the stationary handlebars or wear the chest strap transmitter. This may take a few
seconds. The Pulse Window will display your heart rate in beats per minute. The chest strap is a
more accurate and reliable method of heart rate reading. The hand pulse sensors are subject to
false readings depending on user physiology and workout habits including how one grips the
sensors or how sweaty their hands are.
A message about Calories: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is
in a gym or at home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to
monitor your progress from workout to workout. The only way to accurately measure your
calorie burn is in a clinical setting connected to a host of machines. This is because every person
is different and burns calories at a different rate.
STOP KEY
The Stop button has several functions.
Pressing the Stop key once during a program will Pause the
program. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone or
any of the many things that could interrupt your workout,
this is a great feature. To resume your workout during
Pause, just press the Start key. If the Stop button is pressed
twice during a workout the program will end and a
Workout Summary will be displayed.
