Features Footpads Through research performed with a leading sports scientist and physical rehabilitation expert, Spirit engineering has developed a breakthrough in pedal design. The history of elliptical use over the past few years tells us that many users suffer from ankle, Achilles tendon, knee and/or hip pain. While researching a solution to these common problems Spirit engineers consulted Richard DeKok, P.T., M.T.C., of St. Bernards Industrial Rehabilitation Center in Jonesboro Arkansas.
Operation of Your Elliptical XE700 Console Power on The XE700 has a built-in generator for power and does not need to be plugged into an AC outlet. To power up the Elliptical simply start to pedal, the console will turn on automatically. If the console does not light when you pedal, check that the power switch is set to 0 (Generator). The switch is located on the front, lower left side of the main plastic cover.
Console Operation Quick Start This is the quickest way to start a workout. After the console powers up you just press the Start key to begin. This will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero, all workout data will start to accrue and the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the Up or Down buttons. The dot matrix display will show only the bottom row lit at first. As you increase the workload, more rows will light indicating a harder workout.
The Stop/Reset button actually has several functions. Pressing the Stop/Reset key once during a program will Pause the program for 5 minutes (when you stop pedaling without AC power, the display will turn off, but the memory will be saved for 5 minutes just like the pause mode). 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 or start pedaling.

The two most popular reasons for, or goals, of exercise are cardiovascular fitness (training for the heart and lungs) and weight control. The black columns on the chart below represent the Maximum Heart Rate for a person whose age is listed at the bottom of each column. The heart rate training zone, for either cardiovascular fitness or weight loss is represented by two different diagonal lines in the chart. A definition of the line s goal is in the bottom left-hand corner of the chart.
Rate of Perceived Exertion Heart rate is important but listening to your body also has a lot of advantages. There are more variables involved in how hard you should workout than just heart rate. Your stress level, physical health, emotional health, temperature, humidity, the time of day, the last time you ate and what you ate, all contribute to the intensity at which you should workout. If you listen to your body, it will tell you all of these things.
Using a Heart Rate Transmitter How to wear your wireless chest strap transmitter: 1. Attach the transmitter to the elastic strap using the locking parts. 2. Adjust the strap as tightly as possible as long as the strap is not too tight to remain comfortable. 3. Position the transmitter with the Polar logo centered in the middle of your body facing away from your chest (some people must position the transmitter slightly left of center).
Heart Rate Control Program 1 & 2 (HR 1, HR 2) operation Both programs operate the same, the only difference is that HR 1 is set to 60% and HR 2 is set to 80% of maximum heart rate. They both are programmed the same way. To start the HR 1 or HR 2 programs follow the instructions below or just press the HR 1 or HR 2 button then the Enter button and follow the directions in the message window. 1. Press the HR 1 or HR 2 key then press the Enter key. 2. The message window will ask you to enter your Age.
Maintenance: 1. Wipe down all areas in the sweat path with a damp cloth after each workout. 2. If a squeak, thump, clicking or rough feeling develops the main cause is most likely one of two reasons: i. The hardware was not sufficiently tightened during assembly. All bolts that were installed during assembly need to be tightened as much as possible. It may be necessary to use a larger wrench than the one provided if you cannot tighten the bolts sufficiently.
