HOW TO USE THE CONSOLE
Before using the console, make sure that batteries are
installed (see assembly step 7 on page 7). If there is a
sheet of clear plastic on the display, remove the plas-
tic.
Follow the steps below to operate the console.
1. Turn on the console.
To turn on the
console, press
the On/Reset
button or begin
pedaling. The
entire display will
light for a
moment; the con-
sole will then be ready for use.
2. Select one of the modes.
When you turn
the power on, the
scan display will
be selected auto-
matically. One
indicator will
appear below the
word Scan to
show that the
scan display is selected, and a second indicator
will show which information is currently displayed.
To select speed,
time, distance,
calories, or fat
calories informa-
tion for continu-
ous display, press
the Display but-
ton repeatedly.
The indicators will show which display is selected.
Make sure there is not an indicator below the word
Scan.
As you pedal, the RPM meter on the left side of
the display will indicate your approximate pedaling
pace in revolutions per minute (rpm). The lowest
bar on the RPM meter indicates a pedaling pace
of 30 rpm. Additional bars will appear or disappear
in increments of 10 rpm as you change your ped-
aling pace.
Note: The console can show speed and dis-
tance in either miles or kilometers.
The letters
“mph” or “km/h” will appear in the display to show
which unit of measurement is selected. To change
the unit of measurement, hold down the On/Reset
button for several seconds until the desired unit of
measurement appears in the display.
To reset the display, press the On/Reset button.
To pause the console, stop pedaling. When the
console is paused, the time will flash in the dis-
play. To continue your workout, simply resume
pedaling.
3. Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your
heart rate,
stop
pedaling
and
place your thumb
on the pulse sen-
sor.
Do not
press too hard,
or the circula-
tion in your thumb will be restricted and your
pulse will not be detected.
After a few seconds,
the heart-shaped indicator in the display will flash
steadily, two dashes will appear, and then your
heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on the
pulse sensor for about 15 seconds for the most
accurate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor as
described above.
Make sure you are applying the proper amount of
pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the pulse sensor
several times until you become familiar with it.
Remember to sit still while measuring your heart
rate.
4. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the
time will flash in the display and the console will
pause. If the pedals do not move for a few min-
utes, the console will turn off and the display will
be reset.
