FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with a touch of the dial. As you exercise, the console
will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can
even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.

The console offers sixteen trainer workouts. Each
workout automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your
pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective
workout.

You can also use two calorie goal workouts designed
to help you burn 150 or 200 calories. The calorie goal
workouts automatically control the resistance of the
pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your
pedaling pace while counting the calories you burn.

In addition, the console offers two heart rate workouts
that change the resistance of the pedals to keep your
heart rate near a target heart rate while you exercise.

IMPORTANT: Before you use the console for the
first time, you must select BIKE or ELLIPTICAL; if
you do not do this, the console will not display
correct feedback. (See HOW TO ENTER CONSOLE
SETTINGS on page 14.)

To enter console settings, see page 14. To use the
manual mode, see page 15. To use a trainer work-
out, see page 17. To use a calorie goal workout,

see page 18. To use a heart rate workout, see page

19.

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of
the console, remove the plastic.

dashes will appear in the display, and then your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate
heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand-
grip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart
rate for up to 30 seconds.

If the display does not show your heart rate, make
s

ure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. For opti-
mal performance, clean the metal contacts using a
soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or

chemicals to clean the contacts.

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

If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
tone will sound and the console will pause. If the
pedals do not move for several minutes and the
buttons are not pressed, the console will turn off
and the display will be reset.

HOW TO USE A TRAINER WORKOUT

1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con-
sole to turn on the console.

A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but-
ton, the display will light.

2. Select a trainer workout.

To select a trainer
workout, press the
Workout Select
button repeatedly
until the number of
the desired work-
out appears in the
display. The work-
out time and a profile of the resistance levels for
the workout will also appear in the display.

Note: The number and profile of each trainer work-
out is printed on the console.

3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.

Each workout is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance level and one target
pace (rpm) are programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target
pace may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.

The workout profile will show your progress (see
the drawing above). The flashing segment of the
profile represents the current segment of the work-
out. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the resistance level for the current segment.

When the first segment of the workout ends, the
resistance level and the target pace for the second
segment will appear in the center of the display for
a few seconds to alert you. The next segment of
the profile will begin to flash, and the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.

As you exercise,
y

ou will be prompt-
ed to keep your
pedaling pace near
the target pace for
the current seg-
ment. When an
u

pward arrow appears in the display, increase
your pace. When a downward arrow appears,
decrease your pace. When no arrow appears,
maintain your current pace.

IMPORTANT: The target pace is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be
slower than the target pace. Make sure to
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by turning the resistance dial. IMPOR-

TANT: When the current segment of the work-
out ends, the pedals will automatically adjust
to the resistance level for the next segment.

The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout,
simply resume pedaling.

4. Follow your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 15.

5.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

See step 5 on page 16.

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

consecutive segments.

The workout profile will show your progress (see
the drawing above). The flashing segment of the
profile represents the current segment of the work-
out. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the resistance level for the current segment.

When the first segment of the workout ends, the
resistance level and the target pace for the second
segment will appear in the center of the display for
a few seconds to alert you. The next segment of
the profile will begin to flash, and the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.

As you exercise,
y

ou will be prompt-
ed to keep your
pedaling pace near
the target pace for
the current seg-
ment. When an
u

pward arrow appears in the display, increase
your pace. When a downward arrow appears,
decrease your pace. When no arrow appears,
maintain your current pace.

IMPORTANT: The target pace is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be
slower than the target pace. Make sure to
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by turning the resistance dial. IMPOR-

TANT: When the current segment of the work-
out ends, the pedals will automatically adjust
to the resistance level for the next segment.

The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout,
simply resume pedaling.

4. Follow your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 15.

5.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

See step 5 on page 16.

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

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT

1

. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con-

sole to turn on the console.

A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but-
t

on, the display will light.

2

. Select a heart rate workout.

Press the Workout
Select button
repeatedly until
the number of the
desired heart rate
workout appears
in the display. The
workout time and
a profile of the resistance levels for the workout
will also appear in the display.

Note: The number and profile of each heart rate
workout is printed on the console.

3. Enter a target heart rate setting.

A few seconds after you select a heart rate work-
out, the words ADJUST MAX TARGET HEART
RATE will appear in the display and the number
110 will begin to flash.

Different target heart rate settings will be pro-
grammed for different segments of the heart rate
workout. Turn the resistance dial to enter the
desired maximum target heart rate for the workout
(see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 21).

4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor continuously during heart rate workouts; how-
ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor
frequently for the workouts to operate properly.

Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,
keep your hands on the metal contacts for at
least 30 seconds.

5. Begin pedaling to start the workout.

Each heart rate workout is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate is pro-
grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar-
get heart rate may be programmed for consecutive
segments.

During the workout, the workout profile in the dis-
play will show your progress. The flashing seg-
m

ent of the profile represents the current segment
of the workout. The height of the flashing segment
indicates the target heart rate for the current seg-
ment. At the end of each segment of the workout,
a

series of tones will sound and the next segment
of the profile will begin to flash.

The console will regularly compare your heart rate
to the target heart rate for the current segment of
the workout. If your heart rate is too far below or
above the target heart rate, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically increase or decrease to
bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
Each time the resistance changes, the resistance
level will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.

As you exercise,
you will be prompt-
ed to pedal at a
steady pace. When
an upward arrow
appears in the dis-
play, increase your
pace. When a downward arrow appears, decrease
your pace. When no arrow appears, maintain your
current pace.

IMPORTANT: Make sure to pedal at a pace that
is comfortable for you. Note: If the resistance

level for the current segment is too high or too low,
you can manually override the setting by turning
the resistance dial; however, if you change the
resistance level, you might not maintain the target
heart rate. Also, when the console compares your
heart rate to the target heart rate, the resistance of
the pedals may automatically increase or decrease
to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart
rate.

The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout,
simply resume pedaling.

6. Follow your progress with the display.

See step 4 on page 15.

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

See step 6 on page 16.

Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the exercise
c

ycle regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth and a
small amount of mild soap—never use alcohol, abra-

sives, or chemicals to clean the exercise cycle.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the console,
keep liquids away from the console and keep the
console out of direct sunlight.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console display becomes dim, the batteries
should be replaced; most console problems are the
result of low batteries. To replace the batteries, see
assembly step 8 on page 9. If the console does not
display your heart rate when you use the handgrip
pulse sensor, see step 5 on page 16.

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
left shield. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the left
pedal clockwise and remove it. Next, remove the
screws from the left and right shields; there are three

sizes of screws in the shields—note which size of
screw you remove from each hole. Then, gently

remove the left shield.

Locate the Reed Switch (21). Turn the Right Crank
Arm (54) until a Magnet (16) is aligned with the Reed
Switch. Next, loosen, but do not remove, the indicated
M4 x 16mm Flange Screw (61). Slide the Reed Switch
slightly closer to or away from the Magnet, and then
retighten the Flange Screw. Turn the Right Crank Arm
Crank for a moment. Repeat these actions until the
console displays correct feedback. When the Reed
Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the left shield
and the left pedal.

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT

If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance is at the highest level, the
belt may need to be adjusted.

To adjust the belt, you must first remove the right
pedal and the right shield. Using an adjustable
wrench, turn the right pedal clockwise and remove it.
Next, remove the screws from the left and right
shields; there are three sizes of screws in the

shields—note which size of screw you remove
from each hole. Then, gently remove the right shield.

To tighten the belt, first loosen the M10 x 22mm Bolt
(45). Next, tighten the M8 x 38mm Hex Screw (69)
until the belt is tight. Then, retighten the M10 x 22mm
Bolt (45). Reattach the right shield and the right pedal.

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 inten-
sity 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 near-
est 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.

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

ise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of
time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your
b

ody 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.

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.

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 min-
utes 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 exer-
cise, 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.

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-
e

xisting 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 determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
