FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable. When you select the manual mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor.
The console also offers eighteen preset programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease
your pedaling pace as it guides you through an effec-
tive workout.
In addition, the console features two heart rate pro-
grams that change the resistance of the pedals to
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings
while you exercise.
The console also features the new iFIT Interactive
Workout System. The iFIT Interactive Workout System
enables the console to accept iFIT Cards containing
workout programs designed to help you achieve specif-
ic fitness goals. For example, lose unwanted pounds
with the 8-week Weight Loss program. iFIT programs
control the resistance of the pedals while the voice of a
personal trainer coaches you and motivates you
through your workouts. One iFIT Card with three new
programs is included. Additional iFIT Cards are avail-
able separately. To purchase iFIT Cards, go to
www.iFIT.com or call the toll-free telephone num-
ber on the front cover of this manual. iFIT Cards
are also available at select stores.
You can even connect your MP3 player or CD player
to the console’s stereo sound system and listen to
your favorite workout music or audio books while you
exercise.

steps beginning on page 11. To use a preset
program,see page 13. To use a heart rate program,
