MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING Most problems can be solved by following the simple steps below. Find the symptom that applies, and follow the steps listed. If further assistance is needed, please see the front cover of this manual. WEEKLY MAINTENANCE Inspect and properly tighten all external parts of the elliptical exerciser. Clean the elliptical exerciser with a small amount of mild multi-purpose cleaner applied to a 100% cotton cloth. When cleaning the elliptical exerciser, pay special attention to the track and the wheels. Remove all debris from the track. Clean the pedal covers with a soft nylon brush. Do not use acidic cleaners. Never spray any cleaner directly onto the elliptical exerciser. TROUBLESHOOTING 1. SYMPTOM: THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER IS NOT LEVEL If the elliptical exerciser rocks slightly during use, see HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL EXERCISER on page 14. 2. SYMPTOM: THE PULSE SENSOR DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY If the chest pulse sensor does not function properly, see CHEST PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING on pages 12 and 13. If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 6 on page 17. 3. SYMPTOM: THE PEDAL DISCS RUB AGAINST THE SIDE SHIELDS If a pedal disc rubs against a side shield, loosen the side shield mounting screws and move the side shield slightly until the pedal disc stops rubbing. Then, retighten the side shield mounting screws. 4. SYMPTOM: THE PEDAL WHEELS SQUEAK 5. SYMPTOM: THE CONSOLE TURNS OFF AS SOON AS YOU STOP PEDALING If the console turns off as soon as you stop pedaling, the battery pack may not be charged. The longer you pedal, the longer the battery pack will retain a charge. It may be necessary to pedal for a few minutes to charge the battery pack each time you exercise. If the console turns off as soon as you stop pedaling, even after you have pedaled for several minutes, call the telephone number on the front cover of this manual immediately. 6. SYMPTOM: THE PEDALS SLIP DURING USE If the pedals slip during use, the drive belt is slipping. Follow the instructions below to adjust the tension of the drive belt. First, remove the two M6 x 16mm 5 Button Screws (49) attaching the left Pedal Disc (5). Without removing the Pedal Disc, 49 pivot it out of the way. Next, locate the M10 Flange Nut (95). Turn the Flange Nut clock- 95 wise until the ped- als no longer slip during the power stroke. Reattach the Pedal Disc (5). If the pedal wheels squeak, use a 100% cotton cloth to remove debris from the track and the wheels. If the pedal wheels continue to squeak, apply a light coat of silicone-based lubricant to the track. 22
