HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
HOW TO ADJUST THE POSITION OF THE SEAT FRAME
The Seat Frame (3) can be adjust­ed to the position that is most com­fortable for you. To adjust the Seat Frame, first loosen the Adjustment Knob (16) on the right side of the frame. Slide the Seat Frame forward or backward to the desired position. Retighten the Adjustment Knob.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALING RESISTANCE
To vary the intensity of your exercise, the pedaling resistance can be adjust­ed. The resis­tance is con­trolled with the Resis­tance Knob (27). To increase the resistance, turn the Resistance Knob clockwise; to decrease the resistance, turn the Resistance Knob counterclockwise.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Before the console can be operated, two “AA” batteries must be installed. If you have not installed batteries, see assembly step 6 on page 5.
DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE
The console features five modes that provide instant exercise feedback during your workouts. The modes are described below.
• Speed— Displays your pedaling speed, in miles per hour.
• Time—Displays the elapsed time. Note: If you stop pedal­ing for ten sec­onds or longer, the time mode will pause until you resume.
• Distance—Displays the total distance you have ped­aled, in miles.
• Calorie—Displays the approximate number of calo­ries you have burned.
• Scan—Displays the speed, time, distance, and calo­rie modes, for 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE
1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or
simply begin pedaling. When the power is turned on, the entire display will appear for two seconds. The console will then be ready for operation.
2. Select the desired mode:
Scan mode— When the power is turned on, the scan mode will auto­matically be selected. One mode indicator will show that the scan mode is selected, and a flashing mode indicator will show which mode is currently displayed. Note: If a different mode is selected, you can select the scan mode again by repeatedly pressing the mode button.

Speed, time, distance or calorie mode—To select one of these modes for continuous display, press the mode button repeatedly. The mode indicators will show which mode is selected. Make sure that the scan mode is not selected.
3. To reset the display, press the on/reset button.
4. To turn off the power, simply wait for about four min­utes. Note: The monitor has an “auto-off” fea-
ture. If the pedals are not moved and the moni­tor buttons are not pressed for four minutes, the power will turn off automatically in order to conserve the batteries.
Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise cycle regularly. Replace any worn parts immediately.
The exercise cycle can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid spilling liquid on the console. Keep the console out of direct sunlight or the display may be damaged. Remove the batteries when storing the exercise cycle.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console does not function properly, the batteries should be replaced. See assembly step 6 on page 5. In addition, make sure that the console wire is con­nected to the reed switch wire.
HOW TO STORE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
When the exercise cycle is not in use, it can be adjusted to the storage posi­tion. Refer to the drawing at the right. Loosen the Adjustment Knob (16) on the right side of the Seat Frame (3). Slide the Frame (1) as far into the Seat Frame as it will go. Tighten the Adjustment Knob. Store the exercise cycle indoors, away from moisture and dust.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. In order to adjust the reed switch, the Left Side Shield (10) must be remov­ed. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the Left Pedal (8) clockwise and remove it from the Crank (22). Remove the three Side Shield Screws (40) from the Right Side Shield (11) and the two M4 x 16mm Screws (46) from the Left Side Shield (10). Make sure that the arm of the Crank (22) is in the position shown in the drawing. Carefully slide the Left Side Shield (11) forward off the arm of the Crank and remove it.
Next, locate the Reed Switch (49). Turn the Crank (22) until the Magnet (4) is aligned with the Reed Switch. Loosen but do not remove the M4 x 16mm Screw (46). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the Magnet. Retighten the Screw. Turn the Crank for a moment. Repeat until the console dis­plays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is cor­rectly adjusted, reattach the left side shield and pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE STRAP
If there is not enough pedaling resistance when the resistance knob is turned to the highest setting, the Resistance Strap (15) may need to be adjusted. To adjust the Resistance Strap, the left side shield must
first be removed. Refer to the instructions on page 7 and remove the left side shield.
Next, turn the resistance knob to the lowest setting. Locate and open the Strap Clamp (38). Grip the end of the Resistance Strap (15) and pull it up slightly. While holding the end of the Resistance Strap, fully close the Strap Clamp. Turn the Crank (22) for a moment to make sure that there is not too much resistance. When the Resistance Strap is properly adjusted, reat­tach the left side shield and pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
The exercise cycle features a drive belt that must be kept properly adjust­ed. If the belt causes exces­sive noise or slips as you pedal, the belt should be checked. To do this, the side shields must first be removed. Refer to the instructions on page 7 and remove the left side shield. Next, remove the right side shield in the same way.
Press down on the center of the Drive Belt (14) between the front and rear pulleys.
There should be from 1/4” to 1/2” of move­ment in the cen­ter of the Belt. If
the Drive Belt (14) is properly adjusted, reat­tach the side shields and pedals. If the Belt needs to be adjusted, loosen the Nylon Locknut (36) on the left side of the Flywheel (29). To tighten the Belt, turn the Adjustment Bolt (31) clockwise; to loosen the Belt, turn the Adjustment Bolt counterclockwise. Make sure that the Flywheel is straight and tighten the Nylon Locknut (36). Reattach the side shields and pedals.

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 on either side of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers to the side of 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 heart rate for maximum fat burning; the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.
Burning Fat
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 ener-
gy. 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.
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE
To measure your heart rate, first 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. (A six-second count is used because your heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising.)
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three parts: A warm-up, consisting of 5 to 10 minutes of stretch-
ing and light exercise. Aproper 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. (During the first few weeks of your exercise pro­gram, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.)
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.

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. Caution: Be sure to progress at your own
pace and avoid overdoing it. Incorrect or excessive training may result in injury to your health.
Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.
