OPERATING THE COMPUTER

11

Introduction

Your unit is equipped with a programmable 
computer to help you track your progress and 
motivate you to reach your fitness goals.

This computer provides different programs 
designed to tailor to your fitness goals. Simply 
choose the program you like, set the time limit and
begin exercising. Your monitor will then show your
approximate pulse, approximate calories burned,
elapsed time, speed and distance traveled.

Functions and Features

QUICK START BUTTON:

Allows you to start the 

computer without selecting a program. TIME
automatically begins to count up from zero.
Use the 

▲ 

UP and 

▼ 

DOWN buttons to adjust 

the resistance.

TIME:

Shows your elapsed workout time in minutes

and seconds. Your computer will automatically 
count up from 0:00 to 99:59 in one second 
intervals. You may also program your computer to
count down from a set value by using the 

▲ 

UP 

and 

▼ 

DOWN buttons. If you continue exercising

once the time has reached 0:00, the computer 
will begin beeping, and reset itself to the original
time set, letting you know your workout is done.

SPEED:

Displays your workout speed in miles 

per hour.

DISTANCE:

Displays the accumulative distance 

traveled during each workout up to a maximum of
99.9 miles. The distance will be displayed in tenths 
of a mile.

CALORIES (approximate):

Your computer will 

estimate the cumulative calories burned at any
given time during your workout. Calorie expenditure
on your computer is based on realistic expectations;

however, your computer is not individually 
programmable for all necessary variables to 
accurately monitor actual calories burned.

The computer will count up in 0.1 increments. After
the display value reaches 999, it will reset to “0” and
begin counting from 0.1 again.

AGE:

Your computer is age-programmable from 

10 to 99 years when you choose Program 11 or 
Program 12.

Note:

This unit is not recommended for children.

The age function is only adaptable to Program 11
or Program 12.

If you do not set an age, this function will always
default to age 25.

PULSE (approximate):

Your computer displays your

pulse rate in beats per minute during your workout.

Pulse sensors, located on the handlebars enable
the user to read his/her pulse rate. By grasping the
sensors and holding firmly, the display will read your
pulse rate in the display window. Your pulse will 
continue to read as long as your hands stay on 
the pulse sensors.

When used properly, the heart rate pulse 
sensors and display monitor provide a 
reasonably accurate estimate of your actual
heart rate. This estimate is not exact and 
persons with medical conditions and/or a 
specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring
should not rely on the estimations provided.
