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, your power output in watts,
and your heart rate (when you use the handgrip
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor
[refer to page 20 for information about the chest
pulse sensor]). If the scan mode is selected, the
display will change from one mode to the next
every six seconds. Or, you can select a single mode
for continuous 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, watts, or heart rate)
is currently displayed. Note: When the distance 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 bar graphs—When the manual mode is
selected, only the left bar graph will appear. This
bar graph represents your exercise pace. As you
increase or decrease your pace, additional bars will
appear or disappear in the bar graph. When a preset
program, a heart rate program, or the iFIT.com
mode is selected, both bar graphs will appear. The
left bar graph will represent your exercise pace,
and the right bar graph will represent a target pace.
During the program, the target pace will periodically
change. As the right bar graph changes, simply
adjust your pace so that the same number of bars
appear in both bar graphs. 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 comfort-
able 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 4
shows that during preset program 4, both the resis-
tance and the pace will gradually increase during
the first half of the program, and then gradually
decrease during the last half.
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. Start Program button—This button is used to start
preset programs and heart rate programs.
K. Display 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, watts, and heart rate (when the
handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse
sensor is used).
L. Resistance buttons—These buttons control the
resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer. There are
ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most challeng-
ing.
M.+ and – buttons and Enter button—These buttons
are used to enter your age when a heart rate pro-
gram is selected.
