The console can show speed and distance in either
miles or kilometers. The letters MPH or KM/H will
appear in the display to show which unit of mea-
surement is selected. To change the unit of mea-
surement, first press and hold down the Program
button for several seconds. Next, press the
decrease button to select the desired unit of mea-
surement. Then, press the Program button to save
your selection.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
If there are sheets
of clear plastic on
the metal contacts
on the handgrip
pulse sensor,
remove the plas-
tic. To measure
your heart rate,
hold the handgrip
pulse sensor with
your palms resting
against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your
hands or gripping the contacts too tightly.
When your pulse is detected, one, two, or three
dashes will appear in the display, and then your
heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate
heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15
seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the handgrip
pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate
for up to 30 seconds.
If the display does not show your heart rate, make
sure that your hands are positioned as described.
Be careful not to move your hands excessively or
to squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. For opti-
mal performance, clean the metal contacts using a
soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or
chemicals to clean the contacts.
6.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a
tone will sound and the console will pause. If the
pedals do not move for several minutes and the
buttons are not pressed, the console will turn off
and the display will be reset.
HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con-
sole to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but-
ton, the display will light.
2. Select a smart program.
To select one of the
ten smart pro-
grams, press the
Program button
repeatedly until
PROGRAM 1, 2, 3,
4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, or
10 appears in the
display. The program time and a profile of the
resistance levels for the program will also appear in
the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into either 20, 30, or 45
one-minute segments. One resistance level and
one target pace setting are programmed for each
segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or
target pace setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.
The program profile will show your progress (see
the drawing above). The flashing segment of the
profile represents the current segment of the pro-
gram. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the resistance level for the current segment.
When the first segment of the program ends, the
resistance level and the target pace for the second
segment will appear in the center of the display for
a few seconds to alert you. The next segment of
the profile will begin to flash, and the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.
