6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your elliptical trainer.

If you encounter issues with your elliptical trainer, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Machine is noisy: Check all bolts and connections for tightness. Ensure the machine is on a level surface. The magnetic resistance system is designed for quiet operation (less than 25dB), so unusual noise may indicate a loose part.
- Display not working: Check battery compartment (if applicable) for proper battery insertion and charge. Ensure all console cables are securely connected.
- Resistance not changing: Verify the resistance adjustment knob is functioning correctly and that the internal magnetic mechanism is not obstructed.
- Unstable during use: Ensure the machine is on a flat surface and adjust any leveling feet if present. Check that all frame connections are tight.
For persistent issues, please contact customer support.
