FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

3. Select one of the modes.

The easy-to-use console features six modes that provide instant exercise feedback during your workouts.

Scan (SCAN)—This mode displays the time, speed, distance, calories, and odometer modes, for a few seconds each, in succession.

Time (TIME)—This mode displays the elapsed time. Note: If you set a time goal (see step 2 below), this mode will display the time remaining in your workout.

Speed (SPEED)—This mode displays your pedaling speed, in miles per hour.

Distance (DIS.)—This mode displays the distance you have pedaled during your workout, in miles. Note: If you set a distance goal (see step 2 below), this mode will display the distance remaining in your workout.

Calories (CAL.)—This mode displays the approximate number of calories you have burned during your workout. Note: If you set a calorie-burning goal (see step 2 below), this mode will display the number of calories remaining to be burned in your workout.

Odometer (ODO.)—This mode displays the total distance, in miles, that has been pedaled on the exercise bike since it was manufactured.

HOW TO USE THE CONSOLE

Make sure that batteries are installed in the console (see assembly step 9 on page 8). If there is a sheet of plastic on the console, remove the plastic.

Scan mode—To select the scan mode, press

the Mode button repeatedly until the word SCAN appears in the display.

Time, speed, distance, calories, or odometer

mode—To select one of these modes for continuous display, repeatedly press the Mode button until the desired selection appears in the display. Make sure that the word SCAN does not appear in the display.

Note: To reset the display to zero, press and hold

the Mode button for three seconds.

4. Begin pedaling and follow your progress with the display.

As you exercise, the console will display the

mode(s) that you select.

An upward-facing arrow will appear in the display

to indicate that the time, speed, and/or calories modes are counting upward.

If you have set a workout goal, a downward-facing

arrow will appear in the display to indicate that the time, speed, or calories modes is counting downward.

When you reach your workout goal, zeros will

appear in the mode display. Then, an upward-facing arrow will appear in the display and the mode display will begin to count upward.

5. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.

1. Turn on the console.

To turn on the console, press the Mode button on

the console or simply begin pedaling.

2. Set a workout goal if desired.

To set a time, distance, or calorie-burning goal for

your workout, press the Mode button repeatedly until the word TIME, DIS., or CAL. appears in the display. Make sure that the word SCAN does not appear.

Then, press the Set button repeatedly to set a goal.

When the goal is set, a downward-facing arrow will appear in the display.

If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the

console will pause.

The console has an auto-off feature. If the ped-

als do not move and the console buttons are not pressed for a few minutes, the power will turn off automatically to save the batteries.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginning this

or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper intensity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE

To measure your heart rate, exercise for at least four minutes. Then, stop exercising and place two fingers on your 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.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-

ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 minutes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise —never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-

cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone.

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
