Resistance Program Set-up (Interval, Mountain, Weight Loss, Random)
The EX3 comes with the LifeSpan Intelli-Key button system that simply and easily steps you through
the program set-up process.
1. Select Program: Press the “Select Program” button to scroll through each program. The LED
lights next to the program name will illuminate to highlight which program is selected and the
program matrix will show the program profile. “Press Enter” when you reach the desired program.
You will notice that after 3 seconds the “Enter” button will start to flash, showing you that this
is the next button to push.
Note: When scanning through the programs, the “Warm-up” program will be skipped. This
is because “Warm-up” is an option available at the beginning of other programs and not a
complete workout program itself.
2. Select Level: Use the “Up” and “Down” arrows to select the program level from 1 – 3 with 1
being the easiest level and 3 being the most difficult. Then press “Enter”. You will notice that
after 3 seconds the “Enter” button will again start to flash, showing that this is the next button
to push.
Note: If you wait for more than 10 seconds to make your selection, the system will reset itself
back to the beginning of the program set up process.
3. Set Time: Set the workout time. The workout will start at 0:00 and count up unless a time is
selected. Then press “Enter” to begin the workout.
At the beginning of each workout you can chose to have a 3 minute warm-up. Once the
program begins, press the “Select Program” button to go to the Warm up mode. The Warm
up function is only available during the first 3 minutes of each workout. During the Warm up,
the resistance will be at level 1 for first minute, level 2 for the 2nd Minute and level 3 for the
third minute.
Heart Rate Control Program Set-up
The Heart Rate Control program automatically changes the resistance to maintain a constant heart
rate that you establish during the program set up process.
1. Select Program: Press the “Select Program” button to scroll through each program until you
reach the Target Heart Rate program. Then “Press Enter”.
2. Set Time: Use the “Up” and “Down” arrows to select the program time. If a time is not
selected the program will start counting up from 00:00. Then “Press Scan” to enter your
heart rate..
3. Set Target Heart Rate: Set the desired workout heart rate by using the “Up” and “Down”
arrows and “Press Enter” to start the program.
User Program Set-up
1. Select Program: Press the “Select Program” button to scroll through each program until you
reach the User Set-up Program. Then “Press Enter”.
2. Set Time: Use the “Up” and “Down” arrows to select the program time. Then “Press Enter”. If
the program has already been set up and you want to begin the User Program, “Press Enter”
again to start the program. If you want to set up the program for the first time or make changes
to the program, proceed to the next step.
3. Enter Segment Resistance: Use the “Up” and “Down” arrows to select the desired level of
resistance for each segment, then press the Scan button to move to the next segment until
all segments have been set. Then press the “Enter” button.
Note: If a User Program has already been set up, to select the program, scroll to the program,
press enter, then select time and press enter.
