HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT

For effective
exercise, the
Seat (11) should
be at the proper
height. As you
pedal, there
should be a
slight bend in
your knees
when the pedals
are in the lowest
position. To
adjust the Seat,
first hold the
Seat and
remove the Seat
Pin (35). Align one of the holes in the Seat Post (10)
with the hole in the Frame (1). Insert the Seat Pin into
the Frame and the Seat Post. Caution: Make sure to
insert the Seat Pin through one of the holes in the
Seat Post; do not insert the Seat Pin under the
Seat Post.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALING RESISTANCE

To vary the
intensity of your
exercise, the
pedaling resis-
tance can be
adjusted. The
resistance is
controlled with
the Resistance
Knob (25). To
increase the
resistance, turn
the Resistance Knob clockwise; to decrease the resis-
tance, turn the Resistance Knob counterclockwise.  

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Before the console can be operated, two “"AA"” bat-
teries must be installed. If you have not installed bat-
teries, see assembly step 4 on page 5. 

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE

The console features five modes that provide instant
exercise feedback during your workouts. The modes
are described below.

• Speed—Displays your pedaling speed, in miles per

hour.

• Time—Displays the elapsed time. Note: If you stop

pedaling for ten seconds or longer, the time mode
will pause until you resume.

• Distance—Displays the total distance you have ped-

aled, in miles.

• Calorie—Displays the approximate number of calo-

ries you have burned.   

• Scan—Displays the speed, time, distance, and calo-

rie modes, for 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle.

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE

1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or

simply begin pedaling. When the power is turned
on, the entire display will appear for two seconds.
The console will then be ready for operation.
