HOW TO USE THE AIR WALKER  
ELECTRONIC MONITOR MODES  
CAUTION: When mounting and dismounting  
the AIR WALKER, adjust the resistance to a  
high setting, hold the handles firmly, and be  
sure that your body weight is centered direct-  
ly over the pedals.  
The simple-to-operate electronic monitor offers  
five different modes to provide instant exercise  
feedback. The five modes are described below:  
SpeedÑDisplays the number of repetitions you are  
performing per minute.  
EXERCISING ON THE AIR WALKER  
TimeÑDisplays the length of time you have exer-  
cised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten seconds or  
longer, the time mode will pause until you resume.  
Make sure that the lock knob is tightened into the left  
leg and link plate (see assembly step 2 on page 4).  
Adjust the resistance to a high setting, hold the han-  
dles, and step onto the pedals. The proper form for  
exercising on the AIR WALKER is similar to the  
motion of walkingÑmove one leg forward as you  
move the other leg back.  
DistanceÑDisplays the total number of repetitions  
you have completed, up to Ò999.Ó The display will then  
reset to Ò0Ó and continue counting.  
CaloriesÑDisplays the approximate number of  
Calories you have burned. Note: If the resistance is  
near the highest or lowest setting, the actual number  
of Calories you have burned will be slightly higher or  
lower than the number displayed.  
For a full body workout, hold the handles as you walk  
and move your arms and legs in motion with the han-  
dles and pedals. To vary the effect of the exercise on  
your muscles, change your stance on the AIR  
WALKER. For example, change the position of your  
hands on the handles, or bend your legs slightly  
instead of keeping them straight.  
ScanÑDisplays the speed, time, distance, and calo-  
ries modes, for approximately 5 seconds each,  
in a repeating cycle.  
For a lower body workout, rest your hands on the  
crossbar cover for balance as you move the pedals.  
DIAGRAM OF THE ELECTRONIC MONITOR  
RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT  
To vary the intensity of your workout, the resistance of  
the AIR WALKER can be adjusted. To change the  
resistance, turn the resistance dials on the resistance  
cylinders. There are twelve different resistance levels.  
Arrows on the resistance cylinders will show which  
resistance level is selected. Select the same resis-  
tance level on both cylinders.

CAUTION: The resistance cylinders become very  
hot during use. Allow the resistance cylinders to  
cool before touching them. When adjusting the  
resistance, touch only the resistance dials.

STORAGE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING  
Inspect and tighten all parts of the AIR WALKER reg-  
ularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.  
HOW TO FOLD THE AIR WALKER FOR STORAGE  
When the AIR WALKER is not in use, it can be folded  
for storage. To fold the AIR WALKER, first remove the  
lock knob from the left leg. Next, move to the front of  
the AIR WALKER and place one foot on the round  
tube. Firmly grasp the frame with your hands in the  
locations indicated below. While holding the round  
tube stationary with your foot, pull the top of the AIR  
WALKER toward you until the uprights fold against  
the frame. Place the AIR WALKER in a location  
where it cannot fall.  
The AIR WALKER can be cleaned with a soft, damp  
cloth. Keep liquids away from the electronic monitor.  
Keep the monitor out of direct sunlight or the display  
may be damaged. Remove the batteries when storing  
the AIR WALKER.  
REPLACING THE BATTERIES  
If the display of the electronic monitor becomes dim,  
or if the monitor does not function properly, the batter-  
ies should be replaced. To replace the batteries, first  
lift the monitor from the crossbar cover (see assembly  
step 4 on page 5). Make sure that the reed switch  
wire is fully connected to the wire on the monitor. To  
replace the batteries, refer to assembly step 3 on  
page 4.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES  
The following guidelines will help you to plan your  
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and  
adequate rest are essential for successful results.  
your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If  
your goal is to burn fat, adjust your pace until your  
heart rate is near the lowest number in your training  
zone as you exercise. It may also be helpful to set the  
dials on the resistance cylinders at level 1, 2, 3, or 4.  
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exer-  
cise program, consult your physician. This is  
especially important for persons over the age  
of 35 or persons with pre-existing health  
problems.  
For maximum fat burning, adjust your pace until your  
heart rate is near the middle number in your training  
zone as you exercise.  
Aerobic Exercise  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-  
tem, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exercise  
is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for  
prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand  
on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the  
lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise,  
adjust your pace until your heart rate is near the high-  
est number in your training zone. It may also be help-  
ful to set the dials on the resistance cylinders at level  
5, 6, 7, or 8.  
Whether your goal is to burn fat or strengthen your  
cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the  
desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.  
The proper intensity level can be found by using your  
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom-  
mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burn-  
ing, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.  
Strength Training  
To strengthen and tone your muscles, you must exer-  
cise your muscles at a moderate to high percentage of  
their capacity. Set the dials on the resistance cylinders  
at level 9, 10, 11, or 12.  
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE  
To measure your heart rate, first exercise for at least  
four minutes.  
Then, stop  
exercising and  
place two fin-  
gers on your  
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age  
near the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to  
the nearest ten years). Next, look above your age and  
find the three numbers in light grey boxes. The three  
numbers are your Òtraining zone.Ó The lowest number  
is the recommended heart rate for fat burning; the  
middle number is the recommended heart rate for  
maximum fat burning; the highest number is the rec-  
ommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.  
wrist as  
shown. Take a  
six-second  
heartbeat  
count, and  
multiply the  
result by 10 to  
find your heart  
rate. For example, if your six-second heartbeat count  
is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute. (A six-  
second count is used because your heart rate will  
drop rapidly when you stop exercising.)  
Fat Burning  
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-  
ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.  
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body  
uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener-  
gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does  
Adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart  
rate is at the desired level. You can adjust the intensity  
of your exercise by adjusting the resistance or by  
changing your pace.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES  
when you stop exercising suddenly. Stretching for  
increased flexibility is also most effective after exercis-  
ing. A proper cool-down should leave you relaxed and  
comfortably tired.  
Each workout should include the following three parts:  
A warm-up, lasting 5 to 10 minutes. Begin with slow,  
controlled stretches, and progress to more rhythmic  
stretches to increase the body temperature, heart rate,  
and circulation in preparation for strenuous exercise.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three  
workouts each week, with at least one day of rest  
between workouts. After a few months of regular exer-  
cise, you may complete up to five workouts each  
week, if desired.  
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min-  
utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training  
zone.  
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.  
Thorough stretching helps to offset problems caused  
Remember, the key to success is make exercise a  
regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
