Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four “D” batteries (not
included). If you have not installed batteries, refer
to step 5 on page 7 and install batteries.
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
or begin pedaling.
Select the manual mode.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be select-
ed. If a Smart
program, a
Heart Rate pro-
gram, or the iFIT.com mode has been selected,
select the manual mode by pressing the Program
button repeatedly until the upper right corner of
the display is blank.
Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
the exercise cycle.
As you exercise, adjust the resistance of the
exercise 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 exercise,
the display will
show your cur-
rent speed, the elapsed time, the distance that
you have pedaled, the current resistance level,
the approximate number of calories you have
burned, and the approximate number of fat calo-
ries you have burned. In addition, your heart rate
will be shown when you use the handgrip pulse
sensor (refer to step 5 on this page). Note: Each
time the resistance level changes, the console
will show the resistance level for six seconds. In
addition, when a Smart program or a Heart Rate
program is selected, the display will show the
time remaining in the program instead of the
elapsed time.
In addition, the left pace indicator will appear in the
display to show your exercise pace. As you
increase or decrease your pace, additional bars
will appear or disappear on the pace indicator.
If desired, you can select a single feedback mode
for continuous display. Press the Display Mode
button repeatedly until only the MPH (or Km/H),
Time, Miles (or Kms), Resist., Cals., or Fat Cals.
indicator appears in the display. Make sure that
the Scan indicator does not appear.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If there are thin sheets of plastic on the
metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor,
peel off the plastic.
To use the hand-
grip pulse sen-
sor, 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 mov-
ing your hands. When your pulse is detected, the
heart-shaped indicator in the display 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.
