What do the units nm or ft-lbs mean in the assembly guide?

• Press any button. Note that you cannot wake up the console with the touchscreen.

What routine maintenance should I conduct on my elliptical?

After each use:


• Turn off the elliptical by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Wipe down the elliptical and console casing with a damp cloth. Never use solvents, as they can cause damage to the elliptical.
• Inspect the power cord. If the power cord is damaged, contact customer technical support.
• Make sure the power cord is not beneath the elliptical or in any other area where it might be pinched or cut.
• Adjust levelers.

Weekly:


• Turn off the elliptical by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Move the elliptical to a remote location.
• Wipe or vacuum out any dust particles or other objects that may have accumulated beneath the elliptical.
• Return the elliptical to its previous position.

Monthly:


• Inspect all assembly bolts and pedals for tightness.

Why is resistance on the pedals higher (or lower) at a given setting than on other fitness equipment?

• Resistance at any setting varies between different manufacturers and models. Each piece of fitness equipment you use will likely need to be set differently to achieve your workout goals.

How much room should I allow for my machine?

• Place the elliptical on a level surface. There should be one foot of clearance in front of the elliptical for the power cord. For ease of access, there should be an accessible space preferentially on both sides and read of the elliptical that is at least 2 feet (0.6 meters).
• User height will not change with incline. Add user height + step-on height (9.5"). Recommended 8"-12" between head and ceiling for user comfort.
• Do not place the elliptical in any area that will block any vent or air opening. The elliptical should not be located in a garage, covered patio, near water, or outdoors.

How do I identify what model version my equipment is and what the serial number is?

• Locate the decal at the bottom of the frame. The model number is printed on the top of the decal. The serial number is listed below that.
• Please refer to the Model & Serial Number Identification document for further detail.

Issue: How do I assemble my fitness equipment?

• Refer to the Assembly Guide included with the equipment or find the Assembly Guide at matrixmanuals.com

Issue: Console resets or has an erratic readout during a workout

Console connection


• Unplug the elliptical from the wall outlet. Wait three minutes.
• Remove the four screws that hold the console on the mast.
• Verify that the console's wiring connection points are securely connected and not loose.
• Reassemble the console, plug in the elliptical and check issue.

Corrective Action:


• Secure connections. If unable to secure connections, contact the retailer where you purchased the elliptical or customer tech support.

Issue: Elliptical feels unstable or makes unexpected noises during use

• Ensure fitness equipment is resting firmly on all feet; refer to Owner's Manual for leveler foot locations.
Ensure all bolts and other hardware are properly installed and torqued appropriately.

Issue: Heart rate is erratic or heart rate function is not working

• Note: The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device.
• You may be gripping the heart rate handlebars too tight. Try to maintain moderate pressure while holding onto the heart rate handlebars.
• Try gripping the heart rate handlebars over the top, with your thumb next to your index finger, instead of gripping it with your thumb under the handlebars.
• Contact heart rate gripes are not intended for continuous reading. Rather, try holding the grips for 20–30 seconds at a time for an accurate reading.
• Remove the console and verify that the yellow hear rate cables are attached properly, making sure that the cables are securely inserted into the console.
