HOW TO USE THE DISPLAY
CONSOLE
The Lifecycle~ aerobic trainer's computerized display console allows you to
watch your progress as you ride.
The on-board computer lets you tailor your workout to your individual fitness
capabilities and provides a unique means of measuring your fitness improvement
from one workout to the next. You'll want to challenge yourself by gradually
increasing exercise intensity and exercise time as your endurance improves.
The display is simple to program and easy to use. It shows only data essential to
using the bike effectively.
