If the resistance or ramp angle setting is too high or
too low, you can manually override the setting at any
time by pressing the RESISTANCE or RAMP ANGLE
buttons on the console. However, when the next
“chirp” is heard, the resistance and/or ramp angle will
change to the next setting for the program.

Note: If the resistance of the pedals and/or the
angle of the ramp does not change when a “chirp”
is heard:

• make sure that the indicator beside the IFIT.COM

button is lit

• adjust the volume of your CD player or VCR. If the

volume is too high or too low, the console may
not detect the program signals

• make sure that the audio cable is properly con-

nected and that it is fully plugged in.

Watch your progress with the program display,
the training zone display, and the LED displays

Refer to step 6 on page 11.

Measure your heart rate, if desired

Refer to step 7 on page 11.

When the program is finished, turn off the
power

Refer to step 8 on page 12.
