5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets of
plastic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip heart rate
monitor, remove the
plastic. In addition,
make sure that your
hands are clean. To
measure your heart
rate, hold the handgrip
heart rate monitor with your palms resting against
the contacts. Avoid moving your hands or grip-
ping the contacts tightly.
When your pulse is detected, a heart-shaped
symbol will flash in the display and then your heart
rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate
reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds.
If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your
hands are positioned as described. Be careful not
to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the
contacts tightly. For optimal performance, clean
the contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals to clean the contacts.

Note: If the pedals do not move for about thirty
seconds, the fan will turn off automatically.

will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
series of tones will sound, the console will pause,
and the time will flash in the display.
If the pedals do not move for several minutes, the
console will turn off and the display will be reset.
HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1. Turn on the console.
Press any button or begin pedaling to turn on the
console.
When you turn on the console, the display will turn
on. A tone will sound and the console will be ready
for use.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select a preset work-
out, press the 8 Wt. Loss
Workouts button or the 8
Perform. Workouts button
repeatedly until the num-
ber of the desired workout
appears in the lower display.
When you select a preset workout, a profile of the
resistance levels of the workout will scroll across
the upper display, the duration of the workout will
appear in the center display, and the number of the
workout will appear in the lower display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance level is programmed for
each segment. Note: The same resistance level
may be programmed for consecutive segments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent segment.
At the end of each segment of the workout, a
series of tones will sound and the next segment of
the profile will begin to flash. If a different resis-
tance level is programmed for the next segment,
the resistance level will flash in the display for a
few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the
pedals will then change.
