HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
1. Turn on the console.
To turn on the console, press the Increase button
or begin pedaling. The pace guide will light for a
moment; the console will then be ready for use.
2. Select the manual mode.
When the power is turned on, the manual mode
will be selected. If you have selected a program,
reselect the manual mode by pressing the
Program/Manual button repeatedly until no pro-
gram indicators (see the drawing on page 11)
appear along the left side of the display.
3. Change the resistance of the pedals as desired.
As you pedal,
change the resis-
tance of the pedals
by pressing the
Increase and
Decrease buttons.
There are ten
resistance levels. Note: After the buttons are
pressed, it will take a moment for the pedals to
reach the selected resistance level.
4. Monitor your progress with the display.
The upper half of
the display will
show the elapsed
time, the distance
you have pedaled,
and the resistance
level of the pedals.
The display will change from one mode to the next
every few seconds.
The lower half of
the display will
show your pedaling
speed and the
approximate num-
ber of calories you
have burned. The
display will change from one mode to the other
every few seconds. The lower half of the display
will also show your heart rate when you use the
handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5). Note: When a
program is selected (except for pulse program 1),
the display will show the time remaining in the
program instead of the elapsed time.
Note: The console can display speed and dis-
tance in either miles or kilometers.
The letters
“MPH” or “KM/H” will appear in the lower half of
the display to show which unit of measurement is
selected. To change
the unit of measure-
ment, first hold
down the
Program/Manual
button for several
seconds. An “E” (for
English) or an “M”
(for metric) will appear in the display. Press the
Increase button to change the unit of measure-
ment. When the desired unit of measurement is
selected, press the Program/Manual button again.
Note: When the batteries are replaced, you may
need to reselect the desired unit of measurement.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets
of clear plastic on
the metal contacts
on the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove them.
Next, hold the hand-
grip pulse sensor
with your palms
resting on the contacts. When your pulse is
detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the lower
half of the display will flash each time your heart
beats, and your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrip pulse sensor for about 30
seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand-
grip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart
rate for about 30 seconds. The display will then
show your heart rate along with the other modes.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that
your hands are positioned as described. Avoid
moving your hands excessively or squeezing the
metal contacts too tightly. For optimal perfor-
mance, periodically clean the metal contacts using
a soft cloth;
never use alcohol, abrasives, or
chemicals.
