THE CHEST HEART RATE MONITOR
HOW TO PUT ON THE HEART RATE MONITOR
If the heart rate monitor looks like the one shown in
drawing 1, press the transmitter (A) onto the snap fas-
teners on the chest strap (B). If the heart rate monitor
looks like the one shown in drawing 2, insert the tab
(C) on one end of the chest strap (D) into one end of
the transmitter (E). Then, press the end of the trans-
mitter under the buckle (F) on the chest strap; the tab
should be flush with the transmitter.
Next, wrap the heart
rate monitor around
your chest in the loca-
tion shown; the heart
rate monitor must be
under your clothes,
tight against your skin.
Make sure that the logo
is right-side-up. Then, attach the other end of the chest
strap. Adjust the length of the chest strap, if necessary.
Next, pull the trans-
mitter and the chest
strap away from your
body a few inches
and locate the two
electrode areas (G).
Using saliva or con-
tact lens solution, wet the electrode areas. Then, return
the transmitter and the chest strap to a position against
your chest.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Thoroughly dry the electrode areas with a soft towel
after each use. Moisture may keep the heart rate
monitor activated, shortening the life of the battery.
• Store the heart rate monitor in a warm, dry place. Do
not store the heart rate monitor in a plastic bag or
other container that may trap moisture.
• Do not expose the heart rate monitor to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time, and do not
expose it to temperatures above 122°F (50°C) or
below 14°F (-10°C).
• Do not excessively bend or stretch the heart rate
monitor when using or storing it.
• To clean the transmitter, use a damp cloth and a
small amount of mild soap. Then, wipe the transmit-
ter with a damp cloth and thoroughly dry it with a soft
towel. Never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals
to clean the transmitter. Hand wash and air dry the
chest strap.
TROUBLESHOOTING
• If the heart rate monitor does not function when
positioned as described at the left, move it slightly
lower or higher on your chest.
• If heart rate readings are not displayed until you
begin perspiring, re-wet the electrode areas.
• For the console to display heart rate readings, you
must be within arm’s length of the console.
• If there is a battery cover on the back of the trans-
mitter, replace the battery with a new battery of the
same type.
• The heart rate monitor is designed to work with
people who have normal heart rhythms. Heart rate
reading problems may be caused by medical condi-
tions such as premature ventricular contractions
(pvcs), tachycardia bursts, and arrhythmia.
• The operation of the heart rate monitor can be
affected by magnetic interference from high power
lines or other sources. If you suspect that magnetic
interference is causing a problem, try relocating the
fitness equipment.

HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER
IMPORTANT: If the exercise bike has been exposed
to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room
temperature before you plug in the power adapter.
If you do not do this, you may damage the console
displays or other electronic components.
Plug the power
adapter (A) into
the receptacle
on the frame of
the exercise bike.
Then, plug the
power adapter
into an appropri-
ate outlet that is
properly installed
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
HOW TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE SEAT
For effective exercise, the seat should be at the proper
height. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in
your knees when the pedals are in the lowest position.
To adjust the seat, loosen the seat post knob (B) a few
turns, pull the knob,
slide the seat post
upward or downward
to the desired posi-
tion, and then release
the knob. Move the
seat post upward or
downward slightly
to make sure that
the knob is engaged
in one of the adjust-
ment holes in the seat post. Then, tighten the knob.
HOW TO ADJUST THE LATERAL POSITION OF THE
SEAT
To adjust the lateral
position of the seat,
first loosen the seat
knob (C) a few turns.
Then, move the seat
forward or backward
to the desired posi-
tion, and firmly tighten
the seat knob.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDAL STRAPS
To tighten a pedal
strap (D), pull down-
ward on the end of
the strap. To loosen
a strap, press the tab
(E) and pull upward
on the strap.

HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE BIKE
If the exercise bike
rocks slightly on your
floor during use, turn
one or both of the lev-
eling feet (F) beneath
the rear stabilizer
until the rocking
motion is eliminated.
HOW TO USE THE TABLET HOLDER
IMPORTANT: The tablet holder (G) is designed
for use with most full-size tablets. Do not place
any other electronic device or object in the tablet
holder.
To insert a tablet into
the tablet holder (G),
set the bottom edge
of the tablet in the
tray. Then, pull the
clip on the top of the
tablet holder over the
top edge of the tablet.
Make sure that
the tablet is firmly
secured in the tablet
holder. If applicable to your tablet holder model, rotate
and/or pivot the tablet holder to the desired position.
Reverse these actions to remove the tablet from the
tablet holder.

CONSOLE DIAGRAM
FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
The console features wireless technology that enables
the console to connect to iFit. With iFit, you can access
a large and varied workout library, create your own
workouts, track your workout results, and access many
other features.
In addition, the console features a selection of onboard
workouts. Each workout automatically controls the
resistance of the pedals as it guides you through an
effective exercise session.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button.
While you exercise, the console will display continu-
ous exercise feedback. You can even measure your
heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor or the
included chest heart rate monitor.
You can also listen to your favorite workout music or
audio books with the console sound system while you
exercise.
To turn on and turn off the console, see page 19.
To learn how to use the touch screen, see
page 19. To set up the console, see page 20.

more characters, touch ~[<. Touch ?123 again to
return to the number keyboard. To return to the letter
keyboard, touch ABC. To use a capital character,
touch the shift button (upward-facing arrow symbol).
To use multiple capital characters, touch the shift
button again. To return to the lowercase keyboard,
touch the shift button a third time. To clear the last
character, touch the clear button (backward-facing
