MOUNTING THE ASCENT TRAINER

1. Stand behind the unit

2. While holding both of the rear arm rests for support, place your foot on the lowest foot pedal and push pedal down into

the lowest posion before stepping onto foot pedal.

3. Wait unl the unit nds its resng place and then place your other foot on the opposite pedal.

PROPER USAGE

This unit oers a variety of foot posions. Moving your foot to the forward most posion of the foot pad increases your step

height, which will create a feel similar to a step machine. Placing your foot toward the back of the foot pad decreases your

step height and creates more of a gliding feel, similar to a smooth walk or run. Always make sure your enre foot is secured

on the foot pad.

This unit allows you to pedal both forward and backwards to oer a variaon to your workout and to focus on other major

leg muscle groups such as your hamstrings and calves.

To determine proper workout posion, stand on the pedal with your foot on the center of the pedal. Keep your knees slight-

ly bent at all mes. You should be able to pedal without locking your knees or shiing your weight from side to side.

POWER INCLINE OPERATION

This unit oers powered incline to add variety to your workouts. The incline can be adjusted using the buons on the con-

sole. If the stop buon is pressed to pause the program, the incline motor will remain at its current height. To return the

incline to 0%, press GO and change the incline to 0% before dismounng. If the STOP buon is held for 3 seconds to reset

the console, the incline will also reset to 0%.

USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION

The heart rate funcon on this product is not a medical device. While heart rate grips can provide a relave esmaon of

your actual=al heart rate, they should not be relied on when accurate readings are necessary. Various factors, including

movement of the user, may aect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended only as an ex-

ercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

PULSE GRIPS

Place the palm of your hand directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to

register. It takes 5 consecuve heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping the pulse handle-

bars, do not grip ghtly. Holding the grips ghtly may elevate your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may

experience an errac readout if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars.
