HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Begin stepping to activate the console.
The stepper requires no batteries or external
power source. Power is supplied to the stepper
by a generator while you are stepping. To acti-
vate the console, begin stepping. After a few sec-
onds, the console displays will light. A tone will
then sound and the console will be ready for use.
2. Select the manual mode.
When the power is
turned on, the man-
ual mode will be
selected. If you
have selected a pro-
gram or the
iFIT.com mode,
select the manual mode by pressing the Program
Select button repeatedly until a staircase appears
in the matrix and the indicator above the iFIT.com
button is not lit.
3. Begin stepping and change the stepping speed
as desired.
While you are step-
ping, change the
stepping speed by
pressing the Slower
or Faster button.
When the Slower
button is pressed,
the resistance of the pedals will increase and your
stepping speed will decrease; when the Faster
button is pressed, the resistance will decrease and
you will have to increase your stepping speed to
prevent both pedals from sinking to the floor. The
stepping speed can be decreased or increased in
increments of 5 steps per minute. To change the
stepping speed quickly, press one of the Steps Per
Minute buttons.
Note: After the Slower, Faster, or Steps Per Minute
buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the
stepper to reach the selected setting. Make sure to
continue stepping while changing the stepping
speed.
4. Monitor your progress with the matrix, the
Training Zone bar, and the two displays.
The matrix—When
the manual mode or
the iFIT.com mode
is selected, the
matrix will display a
staircase. As you
exercise, the indica-
tors in the staircase will light, one at a time, until
the entire staircase is lit. This cycle will then
repeat.
The Training Zone
bar—The Training
Zone bar will show
the approximate
intensity level of
your exercise. For
example, if three or
four indicators in the bar are lit, the bar shows that
the intensity level is ideal for fat burning.
The left display—
The left display will
show the elapsed
time, the total num-
ber of steps you
have completed,
and the approximate
number of vertical feet that you have stepped. The
display will change from one number to the next
every few seconds, as shown by the indicators
around the display. Note: When a program is
selected, the display will show the time remaining
in the program and the time remaining in the cur-
rent segment of the program instead of the
elapsed time.
The right display—
The right display will
show your stepping
speed and the
approximate num-
bers of
fat calories
and
calories
you
have burned (see BURNING FAT on page 18).
The display will change from one number to the
next every few seconds, as shown by the indica-
tors around the display. The display will also show
your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse
sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. Note:
Each time the stepping speed changes, the dis-
play will show the stepping speed.
