OVERVIEW OF THE CONSOLE

For your benefit, please read all of the instructions

on pages 11 to 13 before you use the exercise

cycle.

HOW TO ACTIVATE THE CONSOLE

If the exercise cycle has a Basic console,

it can be

used with or without a power cord. To purchase and

use a power cord, see HOW TO CONNECT THE

POWER CORD on page 7. To use the exercise cycle

without a power cord, simply begin pedaling at a ca-

dence of about 25 revolutions per minute (RPM) or

faster. The main display will light, the indicators on the

QUICKTOUCH PROGRAMS buttons will begin to

flash, a tone will sound, and the words “PLEASE SE-

LECT A PROGRAM TO BEGIN” will scroll across the

main display. While you pedal, power will be supplied

by a generator; remember to continue pedaling while

using the exercise cycle.

If the exercise cycle has a Workout TV console,

the

power cord must be used for the TV to operate. See

HOW TO CONNECT THE POWER CORD on page 7.

When the power cord is plugged in, the main display

will light, the indicators on the QUICKTOUCH PRO-

GRAMS buttons will begin to flash, a tone will sound,

and the words “PLEASE SELECT A PROGRAM TO

BEGIN” will scroll across the main display.

HOW TO TURN OFF THE CONSOLE

If the power cord is not being used,

and if the ped-

als are not moved for a short period of time, the con-

sole will automatically turn off.

If the power cord is being used,

and if the pedals are

not moved for a short period of time, the words

“PLEASE SELECT A PROGRAM TO BEGIN” will

scroll across the main display. Unplug the power cord

when the exercise cycle is not in use.

THE BUTTONS

The CLEAR button

—This

button is used to reset the

console. When this button is

pressed, the main display will

be reset and the words

“PLEASE SELECT A PRO-

GRAM TO BEGIN” will scroll across the main display.

Note: If one program is started and then a different

program is selected, the main display will not be reset

unless the CLEAR button is pressed before the second

program is selected.

The QUICKTOUCH RESISTANCE buttons

—These

buttons control the resistance of the pedals. There are

twenty resistance settings, from 0.5 to 10. Each time

the + or – button is pressed, the resistance setting will

change by 0.5. When one of the buttons numbered 1

to 10 is pressed, the corresponding resistance setting

will be selected. Note: It may take a moment for the

pedals to reach the selected resistance setting.

The QUICKTOUCH PROGRAMS buttons

—These

buttons are used to select the QUICK START mode

and the programs.

The ENTER button and +

and – buttons

—These but-

tons are used to enter infor-

mation into the console.
