HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
Begin pedaling to activate the console.
The exercise cycle requires no batteries or
external power source. Power is supplied by
a generator as you pedal. To activate the con-
sole, begin pedaling at a speed of about 3 miles
per hour or faster. After a few seconds, the con-
sole displays will light. A tone will then sound
and the console will be ready for use.
Select the manual mode.
When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected. If you
have selected a
program or the
iFIT.com mode,
select the manual mode by pressing the Program
Select button repeatedly until a track appears in
the matrix.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of
the exercise cycle as desired.
As you pedal,
change the resis-
tance of the exer-
cise cycle by
pressing the
Resistance but-
tons. There are
ten resistance levels. Note: After the Resistance
buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the
exercise cycle to reach the selected resistance
level.
Monitor your progress with the matrix, the
Training Zone bar, and the two displays.
The matrix
When the manual
mode or the
iFIT.com mode is
selected, the
matrix will show a
track representing 1/4 mile. As you exercise, the
indicators around the track will light, one at a
time, until the entire track is lit. When you have
completed a lap, a new lap will begin.
The Training Zone
bar—The Training
Zone bar will show
your pace and the
approximate inten-
sity level of your
exercise. For exam-
ple, if three or four indicators in the bar are lit, the
bar shows that your pace is ideal for fat burning.
During programs, the Training Zone bar will also
prompt you to increase or decrease your pace.
The left display
The left display will
show the elapsed
time, your pedaling
pace (measured in
minutes per mile),
and the distance
you have pedaled. The display will change from
one number to the next every few seconds, as
shown by the indicators around the display. Note:
When a program is selected, the display will show
the time remaining in the program and the time
remaining in the current segment of the program
instead of the elapsed time.
The right
display—The right
display will show
your pedaling
speed, the approxi-
mate numbers of
fat calories and
calories you have burned (see FAT BURNING on
page 23), and the resistance level of the exercise
cycle. The display will change from one number to
the next every few seconds, as shown by the indi-
cators. The display will also show your heart rate
when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the
optional chest pulse sensor. Note: Each time the
resistance of the exercise cycle changes, the dis-
play will show the resistance level.
