Is my elliptical machine accurate-30mins 133 calories???

I just received my elliptical machine today Fitness Quest Elliptical 1100HRA-2 I was on it for 30 minutes-(feel like i'm going to die) I did a level 2 program which is called rolling and it goes from lo to high-varying back and forth-I stayed on lvels 1 and 2 basically with some 3 and 4 levels just to feel the intensity diference-It says I did 3.7 miles on it but that I only burned 139 calories-I', 239.5, 24yo, and stayed in or very close to my target heart range-When I used to do the elliptical trainer at the gym I usually burned like 450 calories, but those machines also asked for me to enger my age and weight-Should I discard the inaccuracy of the calories and just use the machine for the workout-it did give me a good workout-BTW I paid 400 for the machine -Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions
