FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The revolutionary console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you use the manual mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. While you exercise, the
console will display continuous exercise feedback. You
can also measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.
In addition, the console offers twenty trainer workouts.
Each workout automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also offers four heart rate workouts that
change the resistance of the pedals to keep your heart
rate near a target heart rate while you exercise.
The console features the iFit Interactive Workout
System, which enables the console to accept iFit
cards containing workouts designed to help you
achieve specific fitness goals. For example, lose
unwanted pounds with the 8-week Weight Loss workout. iFit workouts control the resistance of the pedals
while the voice of a personal trainer coaches you
through your workouts. iFit cards are available separately. To purchase iFit cards, go to www.iFit.com
or see the front cover of this manual. iFit cards are
also available at select stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the consoleʼs sound system and listen to your
favorite music or audio books while you exercise.
To use the manual mode, see page 14. To use a
trainer workout, see page 16. To use a heart rate
workout, see page 17. To use an iFit workout, see

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise cycle reg-
larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
u
To clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth and a
small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid
amage to the console, keep liquids away from
d
the console and keep the console out of direct
sunlight.
CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING
If the console display becomes dim, or if the audio
from the sound system stops intermittently, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are
the result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on
page 8 for replacement instructions.
Note: If you use the sound system regularly, it is recommended that you purchase an optional
manufacturer-supplied AC adapter (see assembly step
5 on page 8).
If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function properly, see step 5 on page 15.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed
switch, you must first remove the left pedal and the
eft front shield. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the
l
left pedal clockwise and remove it. Next, remove all
the screws from the left and right front shields; there
are two sizes of screws in the front shields–note
which size of screw you remove from each hole.
Then, gently pull the left front shield away from the
frame.
Locate the Reed Switch (46). Turn the Pulley (29) until
a Magnet (30) is aligned with the Reed Switch. Next,
loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M4 x 16mm
Screw (57). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or
away from the Magnet, and then retighten the Screw.
Turn the Pulley for a moment. Repeat these actions
until the console displays correct feedback. When the
Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the front
shields and the left pedal.

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT
f the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while
I
the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the
belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the belt, you
must first remove the right pedal and the right front
hield. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the right
s
pedal counterclockwise and remove it. Next, remove
ll the screws from the left and right front shields;
a
there are two sizes of screws in the front
shields–note which size of screw you remove
from each hole. Then, gently pull the right front
shield away from the frame.
Loosen, but do not remove, the three indicated screws
(A). Insert the shaft of a screwdriver downward
etween the Idler (B) and the Idler Pulley (38). Pull the
b
top of the screwdriver toward the rear of the exercise
cycle until the Drive Belt (47) is tight. Tighten the three
screws. Then, reattach the front shields and the right
edal.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: Before beginning
this or any exercise program, consult your
physician. This is especially important for
ersons over the age of 35 or persons with
p
pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors may affect the accuracy of
heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is
intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.
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.
Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
ody uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after
b
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.
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.
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.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
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
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.

UGGESTED STRETCHES
S
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.
Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.
1. Toe Touch Stretch
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees
and back.
2. Hamstring Stretch
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:
Hamstrings, lower back and groin.
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat
3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles
tendons and ankles.
