5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets
of plastic on the
metal contacts on
the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the plas-
tic. In addition,
make sure that
your hands are
clean.
To measure your heart rate, hold the hand-
grip pulse sensor with your palms resting against
the metal contacts.
Avoid moving your hands or
gripping the contacts tightly.
When your pulse is detected, a heart-shaped sym-
bol will flash in the display and then your heart rate
will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your
hands are positioned as described. Be careful not
to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the
metal contacts tightly. For optimal performance,
clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth;
never
use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean
the contacts.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
The fan has high and low speed settings. Press
the Fan button repeatedly to select a fan speed or
to turn off the fan.
Note: If the pedals do not move for about thirty
seconds, the fan will turn off automatically.
7. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
series of tones will sound, the console will pause,
and the time will flash in the display.
If the pedals do not move for several minutes, the
console will turn off and the display will be reset.

your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current
