The console includes a built-in fan to help keep you cool. To turn the fan on, flip the switch on the
right side of the console case.
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 control
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.
A message about Calories
: 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 about the same rate as during exercise for up to an hour after you have finished
exercising!
Entering/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 start of
your workout. If you want to change the personal settings then just follow the instructions in the
message window. If you start a program without changing the settings the default (pre-saved)
settings will be used.
The default computer settings are: Age = 35, Weight = 155 Lbs., Time = 30:00, Max Level: each
program has a different maximum work level: Hill = 14, Fatburn = 10, Cardio = 14, Strength = 16,
Interval = 14.
NOTE: Changing Age and Weight settings will also change these settings in all other programs
except the User 1&2 programs. 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 Bike you will not have to enter
it every time you work out unless either your Age or Weight changes or someone else enters a
different Age and Weight.
Manual
The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you control the
workload yourself and not the computer. To start the Manual program follow the instructions below
or just press the Manual button then the Enter button and follow the directions in the message
window.
1. Press the
Manual
key then press the
Enter
key.
