FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The easy-to-use console offers a selection of features
designed to help you get the most from your workouts. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the resistance of the exercise cycle can be adjusted with a
touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgdp pulse sen- sor. The console also offersfour certified personal
trainer programs. Each program automatically controls the resistance of the exercise cycle as it guides you
through an effective workout.
CONSOLE DESCRIPTION
Refer to the drawing above. Note: If there Is a thin sheet of plastic on the face of the console, remove It.
A. Display--The display features seven modes that
show your current speed, the elapsed time (or the
time remaining in a personal trainer program), the
distance that you have pedaled, the resistance level, the approximate numbers ofcalodes and fat calodes you have bumed (see FATBURNING on page 13), and your heart rate (whenyou use the handgrip pulse sensor).
Note: The console can show speed and distance in either miles or kilometers. To change the unit
of meaSurement, hold down the On/Reset button for six seconds. The mode indicators (see B at
the dght) will show which unit of measurement is
selected. When the batteries are replaced, it may be necessary to reeelect the desired unit of mea-
surement.
B. Display mode indicators--These indicators show
which display mode is currently shown (scan, speed, time, distance, resistance level, calories, fat calories, or heart rate). Note: When the distance is
shown, the word Miles or the letters Kms will appear; when your speed isshown, the letters MPH or Km/H will appear.
C. Program profiles--These profiles show how the
resistance of the exercise cycle will change during personal trainer programs.
D. On/Reset button---When the console is off, pressing
this buttonwillrum on the display. When the console is on, pressing this button will reset the display. This button isalso used to select the unit of measure-
ment for speed and distance (see A at the left).
E.
Display Mode button_This button is usedto select
the display modes. The modes will be selected in the following order:,scan, speed, time, distance,
resistance level, calories, fat calories, and heart rate (when the handgdp pulse sensor is used).
F. + and - buttons--These buttons controlthe resis-
tanca ofthe exercise cycle.
G. Program button--This button is used to select the
manual mode and personal trainer programs.

sole is turned
on, the scan
mode wiUbe
selected. As you exemise,
the display will show your currentspeed, the elapsed time, the distance that you have pedaled, the current resis-
tance level, and the approximate numbers of
calodas and fat calories you have bumed (see FAT BURNING on page 13). In addition, your
heart rate will be shown when you use the hand- grip pulse sensor (refer to step 5 at the fight).
The display will change from one mode to the next every sixseconds. Note: Each time the resistance level changes, the console willshow
the resistance level for six seconds. When a per-
sonal trainer program is selected, the display will show the time remaining inthe program instead
of the elapsed time.
If desired, you can select a sin-
gle mode for continuousdis-
play. Press the Display Mode
button repeated- ly until only the MPH (or KmiH), rime, Miles (or Kms), Resist., Cals., or Fat Cals. indicator
appears in the display. Make sure that the Scan indicator does not appear.
E!
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If there are thin sheets of plasUc on the metal contacts on the handgrlp pulse sensor,
peel off the plastic.
To use the hand- gdp pulse sen-
sor, place your hands on the
metal contacts. Yourpalms must Metal
be on the upper Contacts contacts and
your fingers must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid mov- ing your hands. When your pulse is detected, the
heart-shaped indicator in the display willflash each time your heart beats. After a moment, two dashes (- -) will appear and then your heart rate
will be shown.
For the mostaccurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the handgfipe for about 15 seconds. Note:
When you firsthold the handgrips, the display will
show your heart rate continuously for 15 sec- onds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other feedbaok modes.
r_when you ere finished exere_lng, the console
will automatically turn off after five minutes.
Ifthe pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for five minutes, the con- sole will automatically turn off to conserve
the batteries.

sonal trainer program, press the Program button repeatedly
until a "P 1,""P 2," =P 3," or =P4" appears in the display.
LP I
The four profiles on the dght side of the console show how the resistance of the exercise cycle will
change dudng the personal trainer programs. For
example, profile number 3 showsthat the resis- tance will altemately increase and decrease throughout program 3.
B Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin exercising.
Each personal trainer program consists of thirty, one-minute periods. One resistance setting is pro- grammed for each pedod. (The same resistance
setting may be programmed for consecutive peri- ods.)
Dudng the program, the resistance of the exer-
cise cycle will automatically change as shown by the applicable profile on the console. If the cur-
rant resistance level is too high or too low, you
can change the resistance level by pressing the + and - buttons. However, when the current pedod
of the program is completed, the resistance level will automatically change if a different resistance
settingis programmed for the next pedod.
During the program, the display will show the time remaining in the program. If you continue exemis-
ing after the program is completed, the display willcontinue to show your exercise feedback.
B Follow your progress with the display.
Refer to step 4 on page 10.
B Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 10.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and tighten all partsof the exemise cycle reg- ularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Important: To avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.
BATrERY REPLACEMENT
If the console display becomes dim, the batteries should be replaced; most console problems are the result of low batteries. Refer to assembly step 4 on
page 5 for replacement instructions.Note: The con- sole requires four =D" bettades.
HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE CYCLE
After the exer- cise cycle has
been moved to
the location where it will be
used, make sure
that both ends of _ont stabilizer Leveling
are touching the Foot floor. Ifthe exer-
cise cycle rocks slightly dudng use, tum one or both of the leveling
feet under the front stabilizer until the roddng motion is eliminated.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE.SHOOTING
Avoid moving your hands while using the handgdp pulse sensor. Excessive movement may interfere
with heart rate readings.
Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly;doing so may interfere with heart rate readings.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the
metal contacts for about 15 seconds.
For optimal performance of the handgdp pulse sen-
sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth--never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
HOW TO MOVE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
To move the exercise cycle, first stand infront of the
exercise cycle, hold the handlebars, and place one
foot on the front stabilizer. Pull the handlebars until the exercise cycle can be moved on the front wheels.
Carefully move the exercise cycle to the desired loca- tion and then lower it.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
exercise program. Remember that proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.
EXERCISE INTENSIFY
Whether your goal is to bum fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity.
The proper intensity level can be found by using your
heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recom- mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat
burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
165 155 145 I40 130 I25 U5
I45 138 130 125 H8 110 103
125 120 115 110 105 95 90
20 30 40 50 60 70 80
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age at the bottom line of the chart (ages are rounded offto
the nearest ten years). Next, findthe three numbers above your age. The three numbers are your "training
zone." The lowest number is the recommended heart rate for fat buming; the middle number is the recom-
mended heart rate for maximum fat buming; the high- est number is the recommended heart rate foraerobic
exercise.
Fat Burning
To bum fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative-
ly low intensity level for a sustained )edod of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for ener- gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calodes for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest num- ber in your training zone as you exercise. For maxi-
mum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the middle number in your
training zone as you exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular sys-
tem, your exercise must be =aerobic." Aerobic exer- cise isactivity that requires large amounts of oxygen
for prolonged pedods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic
exercise, adjust the intensity ofyour exercise until
your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.
WORKOUT GUIDEUNES
Each workout should include the following three pads:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutesof stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rata, and circulation inprepa-
ration for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min- utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training
zone. (Dudng the firstfew weeks of your exercise pro- gram, do notkeep your heart rate in your training
zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
A cool-down, with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching.This will increase the flexibility of your muscles and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.
EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition,plan three work- outs 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 make exer-
cise a regularand enjoyable part of your everyday life.
