HOW TO PLAY THE FAT BLOCKER GAME
The Fat Blocker game requires quick thinking and fast
eflexes. You will use the four-button game controllers
r on the handlebars to play the game. Follow the steps
elow to play the Fat Blocker game.
b
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con­sole to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but­ton, the display will light.
2. Select the Fat Blocker game.
To select the Fat Blocker game, press the Fitness Games button repeatedly until the words FAT BLOCKER appear at the top of the display.
Your goal is to maneuver the blocks so that they
orm a complete
f row of black
quares across the
s entire arena. Each time you complete a row of black squares, the row will disappear, and all blocks above will move downward one row.
As you play, the blocks will fall faster and faster; however, your pedaling pace will affect the speed of the blocks—the faster you pedal, the more slowly the blocks will fall, giving you extra time to position and orient the blocks. The game will con­tinue until any part of a stacked block reaches the top of the arena.
Complete Row
3. Press a button on either controller to start the game.
When you start the Fat Blocker game, a game arena will appear in the center of the display.
A block composed of four or five black squares will slowly move downward until it reaches the bottom of the arena. Another block will then move down­ward. Blocks come in eight different shapes. As each block falls, you can move it to the left or right using the left and right buttons on the left con­troller. In addition, you can rotate the block coun­terclockwise or clockwise using the left and right buttons on the right controller. Once you have positioned and oriented a block, you can speed its motion to the bottom of the arena, if desired, by pressing the down button on either controller.
When the game ends, the display will show your final score and the level of play that you reached. The display will then show the four highest scores recorded since the scores were reset. If desired, press and hold down the right button on either controller to reset the scores. Note: If your score is one of the four highest, the display will prompt you to enter a name consisting of three letters or dig­its. While the line below the first letter is flashing, press the up and down buttons on either controller to select the desired letter or digit. Next, press the right button on either controller and select another letter or digit. Repeat this process to select a third letter or digit. Then, press the right button on either controller again. The display will then show the four highest scores recorded since the scores were reset.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
While you exercise and play the Fat Blocker game, the corners of the display will show the elapsed time, the approximate number of calories you have burned, and your pedaling pace. In addi­tion, the display will show your current score and the game level that you have reached.
To pause the game, press the Display button. To resume the game, press the Display button repeatedly until the words FAT BLOCKER appear at the top of the display, and then press a button on either controller.
5. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.

HOW TO PLAY THE CALORIE DESTROYER GAME
The Calorie Destroyer game is a fast-paced game that
its you against a squadron of laser-firing drones. You
p will use the four-button game controllers on the han-
lebars to play the game. Follow the steps below to
d play the Calorie Destroyer game.
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con­sole to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but­ton, the display will light.
2. Select the Calorie Destroyer game.
To select the Calorie Destroyer game, press the Fitness Games button repeatedly until the word DESTROYER appears at the top of the display.
3. Press a button on either controller to start the game.
When you start the Calorie Destroyer game, a game arena will appear in the display. Three rows of drones will begin to move across the top of the arena, periodically firing their lasers downward. Each time the drones reach the left or right side of the arena, they will reverse direction and move downward.
Between the drones and the laser blaster are five shields. You can hide the laser blaster below a shield if desired. However, each time a shield is hit
y a laser, a piece will be vaporized.
b
our goal is to keep the laser blaster from being
Y hit and to keep any drone from reaching the bot­tom of the arena. If the laser blaster is hit, it will be disabled and another laser blaster will appear in its place; there are a total of four laser blasters. If you vaporize the entire squadron of drones, a new squadron will appear.
As you play, the drones will move faster and faster. The game will continue until all four laser blasters are disabled or a drone reaches the bot­tom of the arena.
When the game ends, the display will show the level of play that you reached and your final score. The display will then show the four highest scores recorded since the scores were reset. If desired, press and hold down the right button on either controller to reset the scores. Note: If your score is one of the four highest, the display will prompt you to enter a name consisting of three letters or dig­its. While the line below the first letter is flashing, press the up and down buttons on either controller to select the desired letter or digit. Next, press the right button on either controller and select another letter or digit. Repeat this process to select a third letter or digit. Then, press the right button on either controller again. The display will then show the four highest scores recorded since the scores were reset.
At the bottom of the arena is a laser blaster. You can fire the laser blaster at the drones by pressing the up button on either controller. In addition, while you are pedaling, you can move the laser blaster to the left or right using the left and right buttons on either controller. The faster you pedal, the faster the laser blaster will move.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
While you exercise and play the Calorie Destroyer game, the upper left corner of the display will show the elapsed time. In addition, the display will show the game level that you have reached and your current score.
To pause the game, press the Display button. To resume the game, press the Display button repeatedly until the word DESTROYER appears at the top of the display, and then press a button on either controller.
5. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically.
See step 6 on page 13.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the exercise cycle regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
o clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth and a
T 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.
PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep the metal contacts clean. Clean the contacts with a soft cloth—never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.
Avoid moving your hands while using the 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.
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, the left pedal and the left side shield must be removed.
Next, locate the Reed Switch (21).
urn the Left
T Crank Arm (42) until the Magnet (16) is aligned with the Reed Switch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M5 x 12mm Screw (53). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the Magnet, and then retighten the Screw. Turn the Crank Arm for a moment. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback.
When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the left side shield and the left pedal.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES
WARNING: B
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 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.
efore beginning
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.
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.
