HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of 
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk 
of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a 
grounding pin.
Plug the 
power cord 
into an 
appropriate 
outlet that 
is properly 
installed and 
grounded in 
accordance 
with all local 
codes and 
ordinances. 
The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt circuit. 
A temporary 
adapter may 
be used to 
connect the 
power cord 
to a 2-pole 
receptacle 
as shown 
at the right 
if a properly 
grounded 
outlet is not 
available. 
The lug or wire extending from the adapter must 
be connected with a metal screw to a permanent 
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. 
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not 
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a 
qualified electrician to determine whether the out-
let box cover is grounded before using an adapter. 
The temporary adapter should be used only until 
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a 
qualified electrician.
HOW TO USE THE ELLIPTICAL
    DANGER: Improper connection of 
the power cord increases the risk of electric 
shock. Do not modify the plug—if it will not fit 
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a 
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether 
the product is properly grounded, contact a 
qualified electrician.

HOW TO MOVE THE ELLIPTICAL
Due to the size and weight of the elliptical, moving 
it requires two persons. Stand in front of the elliptical, 
hold the upright, and place one foot against one of the 
wheels. Next, pull on the upright and have a second 
person lift the handle until the elliptical will roll on the 
wheels. Carefully move the elliptical to the desired 
location, and then lower it to the floor.
HOW TO LEVEL THE ELLIPTICAL
If the elliptical rocks slightly on your floor during use, 
turn one or both of the leveling feet beneath the rear of 
the frame or turn the leveling foot under the center of 
the frame until the rocking motion is eliminated.
HOW TO USE THE TABLET HOLDER
IMPORTANT: The tablet holder is designed for use 
with most full-size tablets. Do not place any other 
electronic device or object in the tablet holder.
To insert a tab-
let into the tablet 
holder, set the 
bottom edge of 
the tablet in the 
tray. Then, pull 
the clip over the 
top edge of the 
tablet. Make sure 
that the tablet is 
firmly secured in 
the tablet holder. 
Rotate the tablet 
holder to the desired angle. Reverse these actions to 
remove the tablet from the tablet holder.

HOW TO EXERCISE ON THE ELLIPTICAL
To mount the elliptical, hold the handlebars or the 
upper body arms and step onto the pedal that is in the 
lower position. Then, step onto the other pedal. Push 
the pedals until they begin to move with a continuous 
motion. Note: The pedals can turn in either direc-
tion. It is recommended that you turn the pedals 
in the direction shown by the arrow; however, for 
variety, you can turn the pedals in the opposite 
direction.
To dismount the elliptical, wait until the pedals come to 
a complete stop. Note: The elliptical does not have 
a free wheel; the pedals will continue to move until 
the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary, 
step off the higher pedal first. Then, step off the lower 
pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE POSITIONS OF THE 
PEDALS
Each pedal can be 
adjusted to several 
positions. To adjust 
each pedal, simply 
pull the pedal han-
dle outward, move 
the pedal to the 
desired position, 
and then release 
the pedal handle 
into an adjustment 
hole beneath the 
pedal. Make sure 
to adjust both pedals to the same position.

The advanced console offers an array of features 
designed to make your workouts more effective and 
enjoyable. 
When you use the manual mode of the console, you 
can change the resistance of the pedals and the incline 
of the ramp with the touch of a button. 
While you exercise, the console will display continu-
ous exercise feedback. You can also measure your 
heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor or 
a compatible heart rate monitor. See page 26 for 
information about purchasing an optional chest 
heart rate monitor.
You can also connect your tablet to the console and 
use an iFit® app to record and track your workout 
information.
The console also offers a selection of onboard 
workouts. Each workout automatically changes the 
resistance of the pedals as it guides you through an 
effective workout. 
You can even connect your personal audio player to 
the console sound system and listen to your favorite 
music or audio books while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see page 21. To use the 
manual mode, see page 21. To use an onboard 
workout, see page 24. To connect your tablet to 
the console, see page 25. To connect your heart 
rate monitor to the console, see page 25. To use 
the sound system, see page 25. To change con-
sole settings, see page 26.
Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the display, 
remove the plastic.
Note: The console can display speed and distance in 
either miles or kilometers. To change the unit of mea-
surement, press the Standard/Metric button repeatedly. 
For simplicity, all instructions in this section refer to 
miles.
