HOW TO USE THE QUICK START MODE
If you do not plan to use a program, the quick start
mode will allow you to start exercising and adjust the
resistance of the pedals manually.
1. Press any button or begin pedaling to activate
the console.
See HOW TO ACTIVATE THE CONSOLE on page

2. Select the quick start mode.
When you activate the console, the quick start
mode will be selected. If you have selected a pro-

resistance of the pedals as desired.
Press the Start button to start the quick start mode.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the pedals
by pressing the Resistance increase and decrease
buttons or the numbered QuickTouch Resistance
buttons.
Note: After you press a Resistance button, it will
take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected
resistance level.
