Basic Information
The Message Center will initially be displaying the Program name.
When in scan mode during a program, speed will be displayed for
four seconds, then move on and display Watts (indication of
workload). If 100 watts is displayed, you are doing enough work to
keep a 100-watt light bulb lit. The data changes to Laps completed,
Segment time, Max level. Pressing the
Enter
button again will bring
you back to the beginning.
The
Stop
button actually has several functions. Pressing the
Stop
key once during a program will pause the program for 5 minutes. If
you need to get a drink, answer the phone or any of the many things
that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume
your workout during Pause, just press the
Start
key. If the
Stop
button is pressed twice during a workout, the program will end and
the console will display your Workout Summary (Total time, Avg.
Speed, Avg. Watts, Avg. HR, total Laps). If the
Stop
key is held down for 3 seconds or a third
time during the program, the console will perform a complete
Reset
. During data entry for a
program the
Stop
key performs a previous screen or segment function. This allows you to go
back to change programming data.
Program Keys
The program keys are used to preview each program. When you first turn the console on you
may press each program key to preview what the program profile looks like. If you decide that
you want to try a program, press the corresponding program key and then press the
Enter
key
to select the program and enter into the data-setting mode.
The fitness bike has a built in heart rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the hand pulse
sensors on the stationary handle bars or wearing the heart rate transmitter (see Using Heart Rate
Transmitter section) will start the Heart Icon blinking (this may take a few seconds). The Pulse
Display Window will display your heart rate, or Pulse in beats per minute.
The console includes a built-in fan to help keep you cool. To turn the fan on, press the button on
the left side of the console.
Programming The Console
Each of the programs can be customized with your personal information and changed to suit
your needs. Some of the information asked for is necessary to ensure the readouts are correct.
You will be asked for your Age and Weight. Entering your Age is necessary during the Heart
Rate programs to ensure the correct settings are in the program for your Age. Otherwise the
work settings could be too high or low for you. Entering your Weight aides in calculating a more
correct Calorie reading. Although we cannot provide an exact calorie count, we do want to be
as close as possible.
CALORIE NOTE: Calorie readings on every piece of exercise equipment, whether it is in a gym
or at home, are not accurate and tend to vary widely. They are meant only as a guide to monitor
your progress from workout to workout. The only way to measure your calorie burn accurately
is in a clinical setting connected to a host of machines. This is because every person is different
and burns calories at a different rate. Some good news is that you will continue to burn calories
at an accelerated rate for at least an hour after you have finished exercising!
