MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING
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.
move the exercise cycle on the front wheels, and then lower the frame.

HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE CYCLE
fter the exercise
A cycle has been moved to the location where it will be used, make sure that both ends of front stabilizer are touching the floor. If the exercise cycle rocks slight­ly during use, turn one or both of the leveling feet under the front stabilizer until the rocking motion is eliminated.
HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
• Avoid moving your hands while 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;
abrasives, or chemicals.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the displays on the console become dim, the batter­ies should be replaced. Most console problems are the result of low batteries. See assembly step 9 on page 8 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.
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 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.
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.
-
During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible gy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored
f your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your
I 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. Aproper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in prepa­ration for exercise.
carbohydrate
fat
calories for energy.
calories for ener-
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 ab ove 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.
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.
