5 Measure your heart rate regularly During the program, slow your striding speed briefly and measure your heart rate regularly (refer to step 5 on page 7). Each time you measure your heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease, if necessary, to keep your heart rate near the preselected percentage of your maximum heart rate. It is not necessary to keep your hands on the metal contacts when you are not measuring your heart rate. Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the reset button to reset the pulse sensor. 6 When you are finished exercising, turn off the power HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL CROSSTRAINER To mount the elliptical crosstrainer, hold the handlebars and step onto the pedal that is in the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal. Center your feet on the pedals. Push the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous motion. Note: The pedals can turn in either direction; turn the pedals in the direction that is the most comfortable for you. Pedals To turn off the power, simply wait for about three minutes. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for three minutes, the power will turn off automatically. To dismount the elliptical crosstrainer, allow the pedals to slowly come to a stop. CAUTION: The elliptical crosstrainer does not have a freewheel; the pedals will continue to move until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the lowest pedal. 9
