SECTION 6 – MAKING ENTRIES 

NOTE:  There is no ON/OFF button. The display will automatically turn on after 
approximately 2-3 seconds of pedal movement. If you stop pedaling, the display will 
automatically turn off. You will hear a confirmation “Beep” when you press any key. 

QUICK/START (Manual Mode) 

The quickest way to begin exercising is to press the QUICK/START button. This will start the 
MANUAL program by default. You can adjust the resistance level with the + / - keys. All values 
will be set to default values. The timer will count up from 0 to 99 minutes. 

ENTERING WEIGHT 

When prompted by the Console LED Window to enter your weight, use the + / - buttons to adjust 
the display to your current weight. Press ENTER/SELECT to accept. Entering your weight is 
required for accurate display of Calorie and MET information. The range is 30 lbs – 400 lbs. 

SELECTING A WORKOUT 

Each program has its own button. Press the button of the program you wish to use. Press 
ENTER/SELECT to accept. You can also use the + / - buttons to scroll through the programs and 
preview the Program Profiles for each.

 

SET LEVEL 

When prompted by the Console LED Window to enter the level, press the + / - buttons to adjust 
the resistance level if you wish. Press ENTER/SELECT to accept. You can choose from 16 levels 
of resistance in each program. 

SET TIME 

When prompted by the Console LED Window to enter the time of your workout, use the 
+ / - buttons to adjust the time if you wish. Press ENTER/SELECT to accept. 

SET HR 

Use the formula on page 31 to calculate your heart rate. When prompted by the Console LED 
Window to enter your target heart rate, use the + / - buttons to adjust the display to your target 
heart rate. The range is 40-220 beats per minute. The Heart Rate Control program will use your 
target heart rate in place of the resistance level. The HRC program uses the predicted maximum 
heart rate formula (220 minus your age for men, 226 for women) to determine you maximum 
heart rate. Your target heart rate will be a percentage of the maximum heart rate depending on 
the type of workout you want. Some people have higher or
