FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

PAdbR COACH
The advanced console offers a selection of features
designed to make your workouts more enjoyable and
effective. When the manual mode of the console is
selected, the resistance of the pedals can be adjusted
with a touch of a button. As you exercise, the console
will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can
even measure your heart rate using the built-in hand-
grip pulse sensor. (For information about an optional
chest pulse sensor, refer to page 11.)
The console also offers four Smart workout programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease
your pace as it guides you through an effective workout.
Note: The console requires four "D" batteries (see
assembly step 3 on page 5 for battery installation
instructions). If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on
the face of the console, remove it. The console can
show speed and distance in either miles or kilome-
ters. To change the unit of measurement, hold
down the Reset button for six seconds. When the
batteries are replaced, it may be necessary to rese-
lect the desired unit of measurement.

Begin exercising and adjust the resistance of
the pedals.
As you exercise, adjust the resistance of the ped-
als by pressing the + and = buttons. There are
ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most chal-
lenging. Note: After the buttons are pressed, it
will take a few seconds for the selected setting to
be reached.

and the left pace indicator.

aled, the current resistance level, and the approx-
imate numbers of calories and fat calories you
have burned (see FAT BURNING on page 13).
The display will also show your heart rate when
you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional
chest pulse sensor. Mode indicators will appear
to show which feedback mode is currently shown.
Note: Each time the resistance level changes, the
console will show the resistance level for six sec-
onds. When a Smart program is selected, the dis-
play will show the time remaining in the program
instead of the elapsed time.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgnps for about 15 seconds. Note:
