HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE
To adjust the
intensity of your
exercise, the
resistance of the
pedals can be
adjusted. To
increase the
resistance, turn
the resistance
control clockwise;
to decrease the resistance, turn the control counter-
clockwise. Important: Stop turning the control when
rotation becomes difficult or damage may result.
DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE
The innovative
console offers a
manual mode
and three pacer
programs. The
pacer programs
are designed to
help you reach
specific exercise
goals by pacing
your exercise.
You can choose
from a stamina-
building Interval
program, an
Aerobic program,
and a special Fat
Burn program.
As you exercise,
seven monitor
modes will provide continuous exercise feedback. The
monitor modes are described below:
SpeedÑThis mode shows your pedaling pace,
in kilometers or miles per hour (see HOW TO
SELECT KILOMETERS OR MILES on page 12).
TimeÑIf you select the manual mode, this mode
will show the elapsed time. If you select one of
the three pacer programs, this mode will count
down the time remaining in the program.
DistanceÑThis mode shows the distance you
have pedaled, in kilometers or miles.
LapÑThis mode shows the number of laps you
have completed. One lap equals 0.25 kilometers
or miles.
CalorieÑThis mode shows the approximate
number of calories you have burned.
ScanÑThis mode displays the above five
modes, for 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
PulseÑThis mode shows your heart rate when
the pulse monitor is used. (See step 5 on page
11.)
HOW THE PACER PROGRAMS OPERATE
When you use a
pacer program,
two columns of
bars will appear in
the display. The
left column repre-
sents a target pace
and the right col-
umn shows your
actual exercising pace. The target pace will change
periodically during the program; as the target pace
changes, simply adjust your exercising pace to keep
both columns at the same height. Important: The tar-
get pace is a goal pace. Your actual pace may be
slower than the target pace, especially during the
first few months of your exercise program. Be sure
to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
The three graphs
on the console
show how the
target pace will
change during the
programs. During
the Aerobic
program (P2), for example, the target pace will gradu-
ally increase during the first half of the program, and
gradually decrease during the last half of the program.
Each program will last for twenty minutes.
STEP-BY-STEP CONSOLE OPERATION
Before the console can be operated, two batteries
must be installed. (See BATTERY REPLACEMENT
on page 12.)
Turn on the power
To turn on the
power, press
the on/reset
button or simply
begin exercis-
ing. The entire
display will
appear for two seconds; the console will then be
ready for use. Note: If batteries were just
installed, the power will already be on.
