approval and supervision of a qualied Trainer or Instructor. Use of the bike by persons over
the age of 14 only to be allowed after a qualiedTrainer or Instructor briefs them. Unsupervised
children should be kept away from the training device at all times.
4. All data shown on the display, especially the Watt values generated by the integrated power
sensor, serve merely as information and to help guide training. Only exercise within your
physical limitations.
5. If you feel pain or dizziness while exercising, stop immediately. It is recommended that you
consult a doctor if the pain does not subside for an extended period of time.
6. Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result in serious
injury or death. If you feel faint stop exercise immediately !
CAUTION
If you have pre-existing health problems or a disability, it is recommended that you consult
your physician, in order to nd the training method which is best suited to you. Incorrect or
extensive training can result in serious health injuries. The manufacturer expressly assumes

SWITCH ON
Until the ywheel is moved, the computer is in deep sleep mode. To switch the computer from
standby mode to operational mode, simply perform one full revolution with the pedal. After
approx. 5 seconds, the computer is then switched on and the display activated.
SWITCH OFF
The computer is automatically switched o if the wheel is not moving. The switch o time is
extended if the console is operated or if you switch to pause mode.
• The console is automatically switched o after two minutes if it is not operated and
the ywheel is not moving.
• The switch o time lasts for 5 minutes if it is in pause mode and the
ywheel is not moving.
• Each time a button is pressed, the switch o time is reset to the time
interval entered here.
BATTERY STATUS DISPLAY
If the the battery is almost depleted, a ashing battery symbol is shown on the top of the display.
Please note that as long as the battery status display is active, the console may switched o
suddenly and replacement of the batteries is required.
ENERGY SUPPLY
The IC5 computers requires 2 D batteries which are installed in the IC5 indoor cycle.
Please refer to the IC5 bike manual for battery installation instructions.
ACCURACY
The average displayed values on the IC5 are accurate within ± 10 % at 50 - 120 RPMs at a power
of 50 - 900 watts.

DEFINITION
TERMS & ABBREVIATIONS
COACH BY COLOR® (CBC) Power-orientated (WattRate®) or heart rate oriented training guidance
based on individual user settings by training zones depicted in color.
WATT Unit of power which is calculated based on the time during which the work is done.The
calculation is carried out using the formula: Watts = force x speed. With respect to cycling this means:
Watts = the pressure applied by the cyclist to the pedal /traction x peddling frequency/cadence.
In Indoor Cycling, the power rendered is regulated using the resistance dial. The speed is regulated by
the cadence.
WATTRATE® Direct measurement of the power rendered by the cyclist in real time.
FTP Functional Threshold Power®, also termed FTP Index. Power delivered in Watts to the functional
threshold power (FTP = 100% corresponds to the aerobic/anaerobic power threshold)
FTP% Functional Threshold Power® in per cent. Information on the current power with respect to the
FTP value in per cent FTP% = (current power in Watts / FTP) x 100
RPM Revolutions Per Minute, Cadence, pedaling frequency (PFQ), Revolutions Per Minute (R/min)
HR Heart Rate
HR MAX % Information on the current heart rate with respect to the maximum heart rate in percent
HR MAX % = (current HR / HR max) x 100
BPM
Beats per Minute
In this manual, this relates to the heart rate of the user.
TSS ® allows an endurance athlete the ability to quantify their workouts based on their relative
intensity, duration, and frequency of workouts.
IF ® is an indication of how hard or dicult a ride was in relation to your overall tness
EFFORT POINTS are calculated for your workout depending on the amount of time you ride in the
individual training zones. They are displayed in the upper left hand corner of the LCD display during a
power or heart rate training and the accumulated eort points may also be displayed during Connect
workouts.
GIVEN POINTS FOR 1 MINUTE OF RIDING IN EACH ZONE:
1 EFFORT POINT 0-55% of your FTP / 50 – 59% of your HRM
2 EFFORT POINTS 56-75% of your FTP / 60 - 69% of your HRM
3 EFFORT POINTS 76-90% of your FTP / 70 – 79% of your HRM
4 EFFORT POINTS 91-105% of your FTP / 80 – 89% of your HRM
5 EFFORT POINTS 106-120% of your FTP / 90 - 95% of your HRM
5.5 EFFORT POINTS 121- +150% of your FTP / 96 – 100% of your HRM

COACH BY COLOR® TRAINING CONCEPT
The 5 color zones used by ICG (white, blue, green, yellow, red) can be used based on the power
(watts) of every user of the bike. The training zones are based on the current power in relation
to the individual FTP (Functional Threshold Power®) value. The same principle of calculating
training zones applies when using the maximum heart rate (HR max) and a compatible chest
belt. As soon as the max HR or the individual FTP value are known, the personal training zones
can be worked out accordingly and in doing so the intensity can be displayed by the colors
during the training session based on the heart rate or watts.
Using the FTP power test (ramp test integrated into the computer), the user has the option to
monitor both current performance and progress.
CAUTION
The power test should only be carried out under the supervision and guidance of a qualied
Instructor or Trainer.
In both Power Training and Heart Rate Training the user has the option to turn o the Coach By
Color® Training Guidance by selecting Color Mode OFF if he/she wishes.

MEDICAL
DISCLAIMER
CAUTION
The division of the training zones for power or heart rate oriented training is based on an average
person’s performance. The zones may sometimes vary dramatically depending on the nature of
the training, the state of your health (e.g. whether you are taking any medications) and your
physical capabilities. It is recommended to always work out sensible training parameters for your
own personal training under medical supervision, and to plan your personal training based on
this data.
WARNING
• Do not exercise beyond your ability.
• If you feel physical discomfort or dizziness, stop training and consult a physician.
• Color zones are for guidance only.
• If the user requires medication that has an eect on their performance capabilities
and/or cardiovascular system, it is imperative that they consult a doctor in order to
adjust the personal entries accordingly.
