FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and effective. When the manual mode of the console is selected, the resistance of the pedals can be changed with the touch of a button. As you work out, the con­sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sen­sor (see page 23).
The console also offers six Smart programs. Each pro­gram automatically changes the resistance of the ped­als and prompts you to increase or decrease your pace as it guides you through an effective workout. In addi­tion, the console features two Heart Rate programs that change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate whilst you exercise. The console also features a Watts program that changes the resistance of the pedals to keep your power output near a target level during your workout.
In addition, the console features iFIT.com interactive technology. Having iFIT.com technology is like having a personal trainer in your home. Using the built-in CD player, you can play special iFIT.com CD programs. iFIT.com CD programs automatically control the resis­tance of the pedals and prompt you to vary your pace whilst a personal trainer coaches you through every step of your workout. High-energy music provides added motivation. To purchase iFIT.com CDs, visit
our Web site at www.iconeurope.com.
Using the included audio cable, you can also connect the exercise cycle to your VCR and TV and play iFIT.com video programs. iFIT.com video programs offer the same benefits as iFIT.com CD programs, and allow you to enjoy breathtaking scenery whilst you exercise. To purchase iFIT.com videocassettes,
visit our Web site at www.iconeurope.com.
You can even connect the exercise cycle to your home computer, go to our Web site at www.iFIT.com, and access programs directly from our Web site. Explore

To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button or begin pedaling. (The On/Reset button is the button above the left side of the large display.)
Select the manual mode.
Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. If a program has been select­ed, reselect the manual mode by pressing the Program button repeated­ly until the letters RPM appear in the small display.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped­als by pressing the Resistance + and – buttons. There are ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the buttons are pressed, it will take a few seconds for the resis­tance to reach the selected level.
Follow your progress with the large display and the small display.
The upper sec­tion of the large display will
show the dis­tance you have pedaled and the numbers of
calories
and
fat calories
you have burned (see FAT BURNING on page 25). The dis­play will change from one number to the next
every few seconds. When you use the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest pulse sensor, the display will also show your heart rate (see step 5 on page 14).
The centre of the large display will
show the elapsed time and your pedaling pace (in minutes per mile). The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. Note: When a program is selected (except for the Watts program and Heart Rate program 2), the display will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time.
The lower sec­tion of the large display will show
your pedaling speed, your ped­aling pace (in rev­olutions per minute), and the resistance level. The display will change from one number to the next every few seconds.
Note: The con­sole can show speed and dis­tance in either miles or kilome­ters. The letters
MPH or KM/H will appear in the lower section of the large display to show which unit of measure­ment is selected. To change the unit of measure­ment, first hold down the Program button for a few seconds. An E (for English) or an M (for metric) will appear in the lower section of the large display. Press the Resistance + button to change the unit of measurement. Then, press the On/Reset button. Note: When the batteries are replaced, it may be necessary to reselect the desired unit of measure­ment.

To reset the displays, press the On/Reset button.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
You can measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. To use the handgrip pulse sensor, follow the instructions below. Note: If you wear the
chest pulse sensor and hold the handgrip pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not display your heart rate accurately.
If there are thin sheets of plastic on the metal contacts on the hand­grips, peel off the plastic. To
use the hand­grip pulse sen­sor, hold the handgrips with your palms resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands
or squeezing the handgrips too tightly; exces­sive movement or pressure may interfere with heart rate readings. When your pulse is detect-
ed, the heart-shaped indicator in the large display will flash each time your heart beats, and your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the handgrips for about 30 seconds. Note: When you first hold the handgrips, the large dis-
play will show your heart rate continuously for 30 seconds. The display will then show your heart rate along with other feedback modes.
Turn on the fan if desired.
To turn on the fan at low speed, press the fan but­ton. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the fan button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the fan button a third time. Note: If the fan is turned on but the pedals are not moved for thirty seconds, the fan will automatically turn off.
Rotate the thumb wheel on the right side of the fan to pivot the fan to the desired angle.
When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.
If the pedals are not moved for a few seconds, the displays will pause and the time will flash in the large display. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for a few minutes, the console will turn off to conserve the batteries.

Each Smart program will automatically change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your pace as it guides you through an effec­tive workout. Programs 4 and 5 are weight loss pro­grams, programs 6 and 7 are aerobic programs, and programs 8 and 9 are high-performance programs.
Follow the steps below to use a Smart program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 13.
Select one of the Smart programs.
Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Smart program, press the Program button repeatedly until the num­ber 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 appears in the small dis­play.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each Smart program consists of either 20 or 30 one-minute periods. One resistance level and one target pace are programmed for each period. Note: The same resistance level and/or target pace may be programmed for two or more con­secutive periods.
When you begin pedaling, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the first period. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too low, you can change it by pressing the Resistance buttons.
The target pace for the first period will appear in the small display for a few seconds, and the arrows in the small display will help you to pedal at the target pace—simply increase or decrease your pace until one segment of the indicator bar
appears at the tip of each arrow (see the drawing at the right). Note: When the word TARGET does not appear in the small display, your actual pedaling pace will be shown. Important:
The target pace is intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
During the last three seconds of each period, a series of tones will sound and the time will flash in the large display. The resistance of the pedals will then change if a different resistance level is pro­grammed for the next period. In addition, the number of arrows in the small display will change if a different target pace is programmed for the next period.
During the program, the centre of the large dis­play will show the time remaining in the program. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the dis­plays will pause and the time will flash. To restart the program, resume pedaling.
Follow your progress with the large display.
See step 4 on page 13.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 14.

Heart Rate program 1 is designed to keep your heart rate between 65% and 85% of your
maximum heart
rate
during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is estimated by subtracting your age from 220; for exam­ple, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart Rate program 2 is designed to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate that you select.
Follow the steps below to use a Heart Rate program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 13.
Select one of the Heart Rate programs.
Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Heart Rate pro­gram, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 1 or 2 appears in the small display.
Enter your age or a target heart rate.
If program 1 is selected, the word AGE and the
current age setting will appear in the large display. If you have already entered your age, press the Enter button. If you have not entered your age, press the small + and – buttons to enter your age, and then press the Enter button. Once you have entered your age, it will be saved in memory until the batteries are replaced.
If program 2 is selected, the letters PLS and the current target heart rate will appear in the large display. If you do not wish to change the target heart rate, press the Enter button. If you wish to change the target heart rate, press the small + and – buttons, and then press the Enter button. The target heart rate can be from 70 to 170 beats per minute.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor
.
To use a Heart Rate program, you must use the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest pulse sensor. If you use the handgrip pulse sen­sor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips con­tinuously during the program; however, you must hold the handgrips frequently for the program to operate properly. Each time you hold the hand-
grips, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate program 1 consists of 20 one-minute
periods. One resistance level and one target heart rate are programmed for each period. (Note: The same resistance level and/or target heart rate may be programmed for two or more consecutive periods.) Heart Rate program 2 is sixty minutes long (you may choose to use only part of the pro­gram). The same resistance level and target heart rate are programmed for the entire program.
When you begin pedaling, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the first period.
As you pedal, the arrows in the small display will help you to keep your heart rate near the current target heart rate. When you hold the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest pulse sensor, the console will compare your heart rate to the current target heart rate. If your heart rate is too far above or below the target heart rate, the number of arrows in the small dis­play will change to prompt you to increase or decrease your pace. When the number of arrows changes, change your pace until one segment of the indicator bar appears at the tip of each arrow.
Important: The target pace is intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slow­er than the target pace, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfort­able for you.

During the last three seconds of each period, a series of tones will sound and the time will flash in the large display. The resistance of the pedals will then change if a different resistance level is pro­grammed for the next period. Note: If the resis­tance level is too high or too low, you can adjust it by pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when the next period begins, the resistance will automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next period.
The program will continue in this way until the large display shows that no time remains in the program. Note: If you stop pedaling for a few sec­onds, the program will end. To use the program again, reselect it and start it at the beginning.
Follow your progress with the large display.

See step 1 on page 13.
Select the Watts program.
Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select the Watts program, press the Program button repeatedly until the words WATTS TARGET appear in the small display.
Enter a target watts level.
When the Watts program is selected, a target watts setting of 100 will appear in the small dis­play. If you do not wish to change the target watts setting, press the Enter button. If you wish to change the target watts setting, press the small + and – buttons, and then press the Enter button. The target watts setting can be from 20 to 250.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
The Watts program consists of 20 one-minute periods. When you begin pedaling, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the first period.
At the beginning of each period, the target watts setting will appear in the small display for a few seconds, and then your actual power output will be shown. The indicator bar will also appear in the small display, increas­ing or decreasing in length as you increase or decrease your pedaling pace.
During the last three seconds of each period, a series of tones will sound and the time will flash in the large display. The console will then compare your power output to the target watts setting. If your power output is more than 20 watts above or below the target watts setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to bring your power output closer to the target watts level. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too low, you can adjust it by pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when the next period begins, the resis­tance may automatically change.
During the program, the centre of the large dis­play will show the time remaining in the program. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the dis­plays will pause and the time will flash. To restart the program, resume pedaling.
Follow your progress with the large display.

HOW TO USE PROGRAMS DIRECTLY FROM OUR WEB SITE
THE OPTIONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR
The optional chest pulse sensor provides hands-free operation and continuously monitors your heart rate during your workouts. To purchase the optional
chest pulse sensor, call 08457 089 009.
24
Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise cycle reg­ularly. 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.
HOW TO MOVE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
To move the exercise cycle, stand behind it and lift the frame in the location shown below. To reduce the
risk of injury, bend your legs and keep your back straight. As you lift the frame, make sure to lift with your legs rather than your back. Carefully
move the exercise cycle on the front wheels, and then lower the frame.
HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE CYCLE
After the exercise cycle has been moved to the location where it will be used, make sure that both ends of front stabiliser are touching the floor. If the exercise cycle rocks slight­ly during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet under the front stabiliser until the rocking motion is eliminated.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
• Avoid moving your hands whilst using the handgrip 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 30 seconds.
• For optimal performance of the handgrip pulse sen­sor, keep the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth; never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console is using battery power, and if the dis­plays becomes dim, the batteries should be replaced. Most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 12 on page 9 for replacement instructions.

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 INTENSITY
Whether your goal is to burn 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 recom­mended heart rates for fat burning, maximum fat burning, and cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers above your age. The three numbers are your “training zone.” The lowest number is the recommended heart rate for fat burning; the middle number is the recommended heart rate for maximum fat burning; the highest num­ber is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exer­cise.
Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relative­ly low intensity level for a sustained period of time.
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible
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 as you exercise. For maxi­mum 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 sys­tem, your exercise must be “aerobic.” Aerobic exer­cise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods 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 of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts:
A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretching and light exercise. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa­ration for exercise.
Training zone exercise, consisting of 20 to 30 min­utes of exercising with your heart rate in your training zone. Note: During the first few weeks of your exer­cise program, do not keep 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 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 make exer­cise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
WARNING: Before beginning
this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for persons over the age of 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user's move­ment, 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.
26
SUGGESTED STRETCHES
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.
4. Quadriceps Stretch
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your but­tocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
5. Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward. Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
