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 hear t rate monitoring system. Simply grasping the hand pulse sensors
on the stationary handle bars or wearing the hear t rate transmitter (see Using Hear t Rate Transmitter
section) will star t the Hear t Icon blinking (this may take a few seconds).The Pulse Display Window
will display your hear t 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 Hear t 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 ever y 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 ever y 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!
Entering A Program And Changing Settings
When you enter a program, by pressing a program key, then
Enter
key, you have the option of
entering your own personal settings. If you want to workout without entering new settings, then just
press the
Start
key. This will bypass the programming of data and take you directly to the star t of your
workout. If you want to change the personal settings then just follow the instructions in the Message
Center. If you star t a program without changing the settings,
the default or saved settings will be used.
NOTE: Age and Weight default settings will change when you enter a new number. So the last Age
and Weight entered will be saved as the new default settings. If you enter your Age and Weight the
first time you use the fitness bike, you will not have to enter it ever y time you work out unless either
your Age or Weight changes, or someone else enters a different Age and Weight.
