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 a touch
of the dial. As you exercise, the console will provide
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor or
the optional chest heart rate monitor.
The console also offers sixteen trainer workouts. Each
workout automatically changes the resistance of the
pedals and prompts you to increase or decrease your
pedaling pace as it guides you through an effective
workout.
You can also use two calorie goal workouts designed
to help you burn 150 or 200 calories. The calorie goal
workouts automatically control the resistance of the
pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your
pedaling pace while counting the calories you burn.
In addition, the console offers two heart rate workouts
that change the resistance of the pedals to keep your
heart rate near a target heart rate while you exercise.
IMPORTANT: Before you use the console for the
first time, you must select BIKE or ELLIPTICAL;
if you do not do this, the console will not display
correct feedback. (See HOW TO ENTER CONSOLE
SETTINGS on page 17.)
To enter console settings, see page 17. To use the
manual mode, see page 18. To use a trainer work-
out, see page 20. To use a calorie goal workout, see
page 21. To use a heart rate workout, see page 22.
Note: If there is a sheet of plastic on the face of the
console, remove the plastic.

HOW TO USE A TRAINER WORKOUT
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but-
ton, the display will light.
2. Select a trainer workout.
To select a trainer
workout, press the
Workout Select
button repeatedly
until the number
of the desired
workout appears
in the display. The
workout time and
a profile of the resistance levels for the workout will
also appear in the display.
Note: The number and profile of each trainer work-
out is printed on the console.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance level and one target
pace (rpm) are programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target pace
may be programmed for consecutive segments.
The workout profile will show your progress (see
the drawing above). The flashing segment of the
profile represents the current segment of the work-
out. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the resistance level for the current segment.
When the first segment of the workout ends, the
resistance level and the target pace for the second
segment will appear in the center of the display for
a few seconds to alert you. The next segment of
the profile will begin to flash, and the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.
As you exer-
cise, you will
be prompted to
keep your pedal-
ing pace near the
target pace for the
current segment.
When an upward arrow appears in the display,
increase your pace. When a downward arrow
appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow
appears, maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target pace is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be
slower than the target pace. Make sure to pedal
at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by turning the resistance dial. IMPORTANT:
When the current segment of the workout ends,
the pedals will automatically adjust to the resis-
tance level for the next
segment.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout,
simply resume pedaling.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on page 18.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 19.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 6 on page 19.
