The console is powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by pressing the POWER ON key. The console should light up, and the Message Center should display a prompt to set up a workout. If this does not occur, mount the cross-trainer and begin pedaling. The console should then light up, making it possible to program a workout. Pedal for 10 to 20 minutes at 1.5 mph (2.4 kph) or faster during a workout to charge the battery. Afterward, the pedal action during workouts keeps the battery charged. If the console still does not light, contact Customer Support Services.

The cross-trainer's optional external power supply makes it possible for the console to be powered by an external electrical source. This eliminates the need to pedal at a minimum speed to supply constant power to the console. With this option, users who use the cross-trainer for rehabilitative exercise may pedal at a rate below the minimum without losing console power.

Plug the power to the external power connector on the front end of the cross-trainer. Plug the cord into an AC outlet. Use only the external power supply provided by Life Fitness in order to insure against unsafe operation.

This option requires an optional kit. Contact Life Fitness Customer Support Services to order the kit.

Place feet anywhere on the pedals that feel comfortable. Many users put their toes 1-2" from the front edge of the pedals and 0.5-1" from the inside edge of the pedals. However, the pedals are large enough to allow a range of foot positions depending on preference. Using a combination of upper body strength with the moving handles and lower body strength at the feet, begin to rotate the pedals in a forward motion like walking. The cross-trainer can be used in a slow motion like walking or a faster motion like jogging and running. A typical usage speed is 50 - 60 revolutions of the pedals per minute. The user can concentrate more or less force on the moving handles to vary the degree of upper and lower body recruitment. The stationary bullhorn handles can also be used instead of the moving handles, to focus the effort on the lower body only. For added variation, the cross-trainer can be used in a backwards motion.

Connect the heart rate cables from the main cable to the heart rate cables from the bullhorns.

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the product operating at peak performance:

• Locate the product in a cool, dry place.
• Clean the display console and all exterior surfaces with an approved or compatible cleaner (see Approved and Compatible Cleaners) and a microfiber cloth.
• Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the finger to press the selection buttons on the console.
• Clean the top surface of the pedals regularly.
• Clean the housing and moving arms thoroughly on a regular basis.

Two preferred cleaners have been approved by reliability experts: PureGreen 24 and Gym Wipes. Both cleaners will safely and effectively remove dirt, grime and sweat from equipment. PureGreen 24 and the Antibacterial Force formula of Gym Wipes are both disinfectants that are effective against MRSA and H1N1.

PureGreen 24 is available in a spray which is convenient for gym staff to use. Apply the spray to a microfiber cloth and wipe down the equipment. Use PureGreen 24 on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes and at least 10 minutes for fungus and viral control.

Gym Wipes are large, durable pre-moistened wipes to use on the equipment before and after workouts. Use Gym Wipes on the equipment for at least 2 minutes for general disinfection purposes.

Contact Customer Support Services to order these cleaners (1-800-351-3737 or email: customersupport@lifefitness.com).

Mild soap and water or a mild non-abrasive household cleaner can also be used to clean the display and all exterior surfaces. Use a soft microfiber cloth only. Apply the cleaner to the microfiber cloth before cleaning. DO NOT use ammonia or acid based cleaners. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners. DO NOT use paper towels. DO NOT apply cleaners directly to the equipment surfaces.

Remove and recycle the rechargeable battery before discarding this product at the end of its useful life. Disconnect the power supply (if applicable) before removing the battery. The battery is located underneath the two shrouds in the front of the cross-trainer (Front Cover, Left and Front Cover, Right), where the upright meets the base frame. To access the battery, remove the screws that hold these two lower front shrouds to the frame. To remove the battery, remove the two wires connected to the battery and the two screws that hold the battery in place. Dispose of the battery properly.
