HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE BIKE
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a
grounding pin.
DANGER: Improper connection of
the power cord increases the risk of electric
shock. Do not modify the plug—if it will not fit
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether
the product is properly grounded, contact a
qualified electrician.
Plug the
power cord
into an
appropriate
outlet that
is properly
installed and
grounded in
accordance
with all local
codes and
ordinances. The outlet must be on a nominal 120-
volt circuit.
Grounded Outlet
Grounding Pin
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle
as shown
at the right
if a properly
grounded
outlet is not
available.
The lug or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a
qualifi ed electrician to determine whether the out-
let box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualifi ed electrician.

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
The console features new iFit Live technology that
enables the console to communicate with your wireless network. With iFit Live technology, you can
download personalized workouts, create your own
workouts, track your workout results, and access many
other features. See www.iFit.com for complete
information.
In addition, the console offers twenty-four onboard
workouts. Each workout automatically changes the
incline (resistance) of the exercise bike to match a
preset profi le or a map of real terrain and allows you to
change gears to maintain your pedaling cadence.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the incline (resistance) of the exercise bike
and change gears with the touch of a button.
While you exercise, the console will display continuous
exercise feedback. You can also measure your heart
rate using an optional heart rate monitor.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console sound system and listen to your favorite
music or audio books while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see page 14. To navigate
the console menus, see page 14. To set up the
console, see page 14. To use the manual mode,
see page 15. To use an onboard workout, see
page 17. To use an iFit Live workout, see page
18. To use the settings mode, see page 19. To
use the maintenance mode, see page 21. To use
the sound system, see page 22.
The console can display speed and distance in either
miles or kilometers. To fi nd which unit of measurement
is selected, see step 5 on page 20.
Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the display,
remove the plastic.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
HOW TO MAINTAIN THE EXERCISE BIKE
Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise bike regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
To clean the exercise bike, use a damp cloth and a
small amount of mild detergent. IMPORTANT: To
avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away
from the console and keep the console out of
direct sunlight.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If the pedals slip while you are pedaling, the drive belt
may need to be adjusted.
See the EXPLODED DRAWING on page 27 to identify the parts mentioned below.
To adjust the Drive Belt (66), first press the power
switch to the off position and unplug the power
cord.
Use a flat screwdriver and remove the Upper Shield
(10) and the right Shield Cover (13).
Next, remove the #8 x 13mm Screw (88) from the
Right Shield (12). Then, remove the #8 x 5/8" Screw
(94) from the Left Shield (11).
Then, use a socket set to remove the two 1/4" Flange
Nuts (99) from the Right Shield (12).
Remove the two #8 x 1/2" Screws (95) on the right side
of the Electronics Shield (98). Then, gently move the
Right Shield (12) away from the exercise bike.
Locate the Idler Pulley (37). Loosen the 3/8" Jam Nut
(71). Then, tighten the Idler Adjustment Screw (39) until
the Drive Belt (66) is tight.
When the Drive Belt (66) is tight, tighten the 3/8" Jam
Nut (71).
Reattach the Right Shield (12) with the #8 x 1/2"
Screws (95), the 1/4" Flange Nuts (99), the #8 x 5/8"

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-existing
health problems.
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.
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 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.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your heart
rate, exercise for at least
four minutes. Then, stop
exercising and place
two fingers on your
wrist as shown. Take a
six-second heartbeat
count, and multiply the
result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your
six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140
beats per minute.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
ing 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
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.
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.
