Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries
(see assembly step 4 on page 5).
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
or begin pedalling.
Select the manual mode.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be select-
ed. If a pro-
gram has been
selected, select
the manual mode by pressing the Program button
repeatedly until the upper right corner of the dis-
play is blank.
Begin pedalling and adjust the resistance of
the exercise cycle.
As you pedal, adjust the resistance of the exer-
cise cycle as desired by pressing the + and –
buttons. There are ten resistance levels; level 10
is the most challenging. Note: After the buttons
are pressed, it will take a few seconds for the
selected setting to be reached.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes
and the left pace indicator.
When the con-
sole is turned
on, the scan
mode will be
selected. As
you pedal, the
display will
show your cur-
rent speed, the elapsed time, the current resis-
tance level, the approximate number of calories
you have burned, the distance that you have
pedaled, and your power output in watts. In addi-
tion, your heart rate will be shown when you use
the handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sen-
sor. Note: Each time the resistance level
changes, the console will show the resistance
level for six seconds. When a program is select-
ed, the display will show the time remaining in
the program instead of the elapsed time.
If desired, you can select a single feedback mode
for continuous display. Press the Display button
repeatedly until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time,
Resist., Cals., Miles (or Kms), or Watts indicator
appears in the display. Make sure that the Scan
indicator does not appear.
In addition, the left pace indicator will appear in the
display. As you increase or decrease your pace,
the indicator will increase or decrease in height.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your heart rate, use the chest pulse
sensor (refer to page 8) or the handgrip pulse
sensor (follow the instructions below). Note: If
you wear the chest pulse sensor and hold the
handgrip pulse sensor at the same time, the
console may not display your heart rate accu-
rately.
If there are thin
sheets of plas-
tic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, peel off
the plastic. To
use the handgrip
pulse sensor,
place your hands on the metal contacts. Your
palms must be on the upper contacts and your
fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is
detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the dis-
play will flash each time your heart beats. After a
moment, two dashes (– –) will appear and then
your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 15 seconds. Note:
When you first hold the handgrips, the display will
show your heart rate continuously for 15 sec-
onds. The display will then show your heart rate
along with the other feedback modes.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
If the pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for a few minutes, the con-
sole will automatically turn off to conserve
the batteries.
