HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The power cord has a plug with a
grounding pin.
Plug the
power cord
into an
appropriate
outlet that
is properly
installed and
grounded in
accordance
with all local
codes and
ordinances. The outlet must be on a nominal 120-volt
circuit.
A temporary
adapter may
be used to
connect the
power cord
to a 2-pole
receptacle
as shown
at the right
if a properly
grounded
outlet is not
available.
The lug or wire extending from the adapter must
be connected with a metal screw to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Some 2-pole receptacle outlet box covers are not
grounded. Before using an adapter, contact a quali-
fied electrician to determine whether the outlet
box cover is grounded before using an adapter.
The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician.
HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE BIKE
DANGER: Improper connection of
the power cord increases the risk of electric
shock. Do not modify the plug; if it will not fit
an outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. If you are unsure whether
the product is properly grounded, contact a
qualified electrician.

tion of the seat
carriage, loosen
and pull the seat
knob, move the seat
carriage forward or
backward, release
the seat knob into
an adjustment hole
in the seat carriage,

of the handlebar
post, loosen and
pull the post knob,
move the handle-
bar post upward or
downward, release
the post knob into
an adjustment hole
in the handlebar
post, and then
tighten the post
knob. Move the seat post upward or downward
slightly to make sure that the post knob is engaged
in an adjustment hole.
How to Adjust the Handlebar Carriage

HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE BIKE
If the exercise bike
rocks slightly on
your floor during
use, turn one or
both of the level-
ing feet on the rear
stabilizer until the
rocking motion is
eliminated.
HOW TO USE THE HAND WEIGHTS
To add upper body
exercise to your
workouts, use the
hand weights while
you pedal. When
you are not using
the hand weights,
store them on the
hand weight rest.
HOW TO USE THE TABLET HOLDER
IMPORTANT: The tablet holder 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 tab-
let into the tablet

tom edge of the
tablet in the tray.
Then, pull the clip

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals and the incline
of the frame with the touch of a button.
While you exercise, the console will display continu-
ous exercise feedback, including watts and pedaling
cadence feedback.
During your workout, you can do intervals at any time
to measure your performance over short periods of
time. The console will record and display your results
for each interval.
You can also measure your heart rate using an optional
heart rate monitor. See page 31 for information
about purchasing an optional chest heart rate
monitor.
In addition, the console features a selection of onboard
workouts and several iFit demo workouts. Each work-
out automatically controls the resistance of the pedals
and the incline of the frame and prompts you to vary
your pedaling speed as it guides you through an effec-
tive exercise session. You can also set a customized
workout goal with the set-a-goal workout.
The console also features new iFit technology that
enables the console to communicate with your wireless
network. With iFit technology, you can download per-
sonalized workouts, create your own workouts, track
your workout results, and access many other features.
See www.iFit.com for complete information.
You can also browse the internet or listen to your
favorite workout music or audio books with the console
sound system while you exercise.
To turn on the power, see this page. To learn how to
use the touch screen, see page 20. To set up the
console, see page 20.
HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER
IMPORTANT: If the exercise bike has been exposed
to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room tem-
perature before you turn on the power. If you do
not do this, you may damage the console displays
or other electrical components.
Plug in the power cord (see
HOW TO PLUG IN THE
POWER CORD on page
15). Next, locate the
power switch on the frame
near the power cord. Press
the power switch to the
reset position.
The display will then turn on and the console will be
ready for use.
Note: When you turn on the power for the first time,
the incline system may calibrate automatically. The
exercise bike will move upward and downward as it
calibrates. When the exercise bike stops moving, the
incline system is calibrated.
IMPORTANT: If the incline system does not cali-
brate automatically, see step 4 on page 29 and
manually calibrate the incline system.
IMPORTANT: The console features a display demo
mode, designed to be used if the exercise bike is
displayed in a store. If the demo mode is turned on,
the console will not turn off and the display will not
be reset when you nish exercising. To turn off the
demo mode, see step 7 on page 27.

• To type information into a text box, first touch the text
box to view the keyboard. To use numbers or other
characters on the keyboard, touch the ?123 but-
ton. To view more characters, touch the Alt button.

ABC button. To use a capital character, touch the
button with an upward-facing arrow. To use multiple
capital characters, touch the arrow button again. To
return to the lowercase keyboard, touch the arrow
button a third time. To clear the last character, touch
the button with a backward-facing arrow and an X.
• Use these buttons on the console to navigate the
tablet. Press the home button to return to the main
menu. Press the settings button to access the
settings menu (see page 27). Press the back
button to return to the previous screen.
