CONSOLE DESCRIPTION
Refer to the drawing on page 10.
A. Exercise feedback display--This display features
seven modes that give you instant exercise feed-
back: your current speed, the elapsed time (or the
time remaining in a preset program or a heart rate
program), the resistance level, the approximate
number of calories you have burned, the distance
that you have pedaled, the approximate number of
fat calories you have burned (see FAT BURNING
on page 21), and your heart rate (when you use the
handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse
sensor). If the scan mode is selected, the display
will change from one mode to the next every few
seconds. Or, you can select a single mode for con-
tinuous display.
Note: The console can show speed and distance
in either miles or kilometers. To change the unit
of measurement, refer to step 4 on page 12.
B. Feedback mode indicators--These indicators show
which feedback mode (scan, speed, time, resis-
tance level, calories, distance, fat calories, or heart
rate) is currently displayed. Note: When the dis-
tance is shown, the word Miles or the letters Kms
will appear; when your speed is shown, the letters
MPH or Km/H will appear.
C. Increase and decrease arrows--During preset pro-
grams, heart rate programs, and iFIT.com pro-
grams, these arrows will prompt you to increase or
decrease your pace to match the target pace.
D. Manual mode/program indicator--When a preset
program is selected, the upper right corner of the
display will show a 1,2, 3, or 4, depending on
which preset program is selected. When a heart
rate program is selected, the upper right corner of
the display will show a 5 or 6. When the iFIT.com
mode is selected, the upper right corner will show
the letters IF. When the manual mode is selected,
the upper right corner will be blank.
E. Pace indicators--When the manual mode is select-
ed, only the left indicator will appear. This indicator
represents your exercise pace. As you increase or
decrease your pace, additional bars will appear or
disappear in the indicator. When a preset program, a
heart rate program, or the iFtT.com mode is select-
ed, both indicators will appear. The left indicator will
represent your exercise pace, and the right indicator
will represent a target pace. During the program,
the target pace will periodically change. As the right
indicator changes, simply adjust your pace so that
the same number of bars appear in both indicators.
Important: The target 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. Make sure to exercise at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
F. Training zone display--As you exercise, the training
zone display will show the approximate intensity
level of your exercise.
G. Program profiles--These profiles show how the
resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer and the tar-
get pace will change during preset programs and
heart rate programs. For example, profile number 1
shows that during preset program 1, the resistance
will gradually increase during the first part of the
program, and then gradually decrease; the pace
will alternately increase and decrease during the
program.
H. IFIT.com button--This button is used to select the
iFIT.com mode. The indicator beside the button will
light when the iFIT.com mode is selected.
I. Select Program button--This button is used to
select the manual mode, preset programs, and
heart rate programs.
J. + and - buttons--These buttons are used to enter
your age when a heart rate program is selected.
K. Resistance buttons--These buttons control the
resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer. There are
ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most challeng-
ing.
L.
Display Mode button--This button is used to select
the feedback modes. The modes will be selected in
the following order: scan, speed, time, resistance
level, calories, distance, fat calories, and heart rate
(when the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional
chest pulse sensor is used).
