In addition to the matrix, the display will show
your pedaling speed, the number of Calories you
have burned, the elapsed time, and your total
distance. The display will also show your heart
rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5).
Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the
reset button to reset the pulse sensor.
Measure your heart rate if desired
If there is a thin
layer of plastic on
the metal contacts
on the top and bot-
tom of the pulse
sensor, remove the
plastic before using
the pulse sensor.
To use the pulse sen-
sor, place your hands
on the metal contacts. Your palms must be rest-
ing on the upper contacts and your fingers must
be touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving
your hands.
After a moment, the
heart-shaped indica-
tor in the display will
begin to flash and
your heart rate will
be shown. For the
most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold
the contacts for about 15 seconds. WARNING:
The pulse sensor is not a medical device.
Various factors, including the user's move-
ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate
readings. The pulse sensor is intended only
as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general.
Note: If your heart rate is not shown, press the
reset button to reset the pulse sensor. In addi-
tion, make sure that your hands are positioned as
described above. Be careful not to move your
hands excessively or squeeze the metal contacts
too tightly.
When you are finished exercising, turn off the
power
To turn off the power, simply wait for about
three minutes. If the pedals are not moved and
the console buttons are not pressed for three
minutes, the power will turn off automatically.
HOW TO USE A RESISTANCE PROGRAM
Turn on the power
To turn on the power, press any button on the
console. Note: If batteries were just installed, the
power will already be on.
Select one of the resistance programs
Each time the power
is turned on, the man-
ual program will be
selected, as shown by
the ÒP-1Ó in the dis-
play. To select one of
the resistance programs, press the program button
repeatedly until a ÒP-2,Ó ÒP-3,Ó ÒP-4,Ó ÒP-5Ó or ÒP-6Ó
appears in the display.
As you select each
resistance program,
the matrix will show
the resistance settings
of the program you
have selected. If you
select program 2, for example, the matrix will
show that the resistance will gradually increase
during the first half of the program and then grad-
ually decrease during the last half of the program.
Begin exercising and follow your progress
with the console display
As you exercise, follow your progress with the
matrix on the left side of the display (refer to the
drawing above). During the first minute of the pro-
gram, the first column of the matrix will flash; dur-
ing the second minute, the second column will
flash; during the third minute, the third column will
flash. In addition, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically change according to the height of
the flashing columnÑthe higher the column is,
the greater the resistance will be. After ten min-
utes, the program will be completed.
Note: If the program is too easy or too difficult,
press the resistance + or Ð button to adjust the
intensity level of the program. As you press the
resistance + or Ð button, the height of the
columns in the matrix will increase or decrease.
In addition to the matrix, the display will show
your pedaling speed, the number of Calories you
have burned, the elapsed time, and your total
distance. The display will also show your heart
rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 4).
