The training zone
displayÑAs you
exercise, the train-
ing zone display
will show the
approximate inten-
sity level of your exercise. For example, if three or
four indicators in the display are lit (refer to the
drawing above), the display shows that your inten-
sity level is ideal for fat burning.
The left LED dis-
playÑAs you
exercise, the left
display will show
the elapsed time,
your current
speed, and the
current resistance level. The display will change
from one number to the next every six seconds,
as shown by the indicators around the display.
Note: When a preset program is selected, the left
display will show the time remaining in the pro-
gram rather than the elapsed time.
The right LED
displayÑAs you
exercise, the right
display will show
the approximate
number of calories
you have burned
and the distance you have traveled. The display
will change from one number to the other every
six seconds, as shown by the indicators around
the display. This display will also show your heart
rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 6).
Note: If you stop exercising for six seconds or
longer, the console will pause and the left LED
display will begin to flash.
Measure your heart rate, if desired.
Note: Before using the pulse sensor, peel the
protective vinyl off the metal contacts on the
top and bottom of the pulse sensor.
To measure
your heart
rate, place
your hands on
the metal con-
tacts on the
pulse sensor.
Your palms
must be resting on the upper contacts and your
fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands.
When your pulse is
detected, the heart
rate indicator above
the right LED dis-
play will light, one
to three dashes will
appear in the dis-
play, and then your heart rate will be shown. For
the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to
hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. Note: If
your heart rate is not shown, 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.
Note: When you hold the pulse sensor, the right
LED display will show your heart rate for up to
two minutes. If you continue to hold the pulse
sensor, the display will show your heart rate along
with the number of calories you have burned and
the distance you have traveled.
When you are finished exercising, turn off the
power.
To turn off the power, simply wait for about ten
minutes. The console has an Òauto-offÓ feature.
If the console buttons are not pressed and the
pedals are not moved for ten minutes, the
console will turn off automatically.
Note: If the displays and indicators remain lit
after ten minutes, the console may be in the
ÒdemoÓ mode. Refer to the instructions on
page 16 to turn off the demo mode.
