To mount the HSE700, firmly hold the handlebars or
the T-handle and carefully step onto the pedal that is
in the lowest position.Next, step onto the other pedal.
Push the pedals until they begin to move with a con-
tinuous motion. Note: The pedal disks can turn in
either direction; it is recommended that you turn
the pedal disks in the direction shown below;
however, to give variety to your exercise, you may
choose to turn the pedal disks in the opposite
direction.
To dismount the HSE700, allow the pedals to come to
a complete stop. CAUTION: The HSE700 does not
have a freewheel; the pedals will continue to
move until the flywheel stops. When the pedals are
stationary, step off the highest pedal first. Then, step
off the lowest pedal.
HOW TO AD UST THE RESISTANCE OF THE
PEDALS
As you exercise,
you can adjust
the resistance of
the pedals with
the resistance
knob on the
console. To
increase the
resistance,
turn the knob
clockwise; to
decrease the
resistance, turn the knob counterclockwise.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE
The console is designed to help you get the most
from your workouts. As you exercise, you can watch
your progress around the LED track, while the
display provides continuous exercise feedback.
The six modes of the display are described below.
Speed—This mode displays your current exercise
speed, in miles per hour.
Time—This mode displays the length of time you
have exercised. Note: f you stop exercising, the time
mode will pause until you resume.
Distance—This mode displays the total distance you
have completed, in miles.
Laps—This mode displays the number of 1/4-mile
laps you have completed around the LED track.
Calorie—This mode displays the approximate number
of Calories you have burned.
Scan—This mode displays the speed, time, distance,
laps, and calorie modes, for 5 seconds each, in a
repeating cycle.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Before the console can be operated, two “AA” batter-
ies must be installed. f you have not installed batter-
ies, see assembly step 7 on page 8.
HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE
f there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of
the console, remove it.
1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or
simply begin exercising. When the power is turned
on, one LED indicator will light in the LED track,
and the entire display will appear for two seconds.
The console will then be ready for operation.
2. Select one of the five modes:
Scan mode—
When the power
is turned on, the
scan mode will
automatically be
selected. One
mode indicator
will show that the
scan mode is selected, and a flashing mode indica-
tor will show which mode is currently displayed.
Note: f a different mode is selected, you can
select the scan mode again by repeatedly pressing
the mode button.
Speed, time,
distance, laps,
or calorie mode—
To select one of
these modes for
continuous
display, press the
mode button repeatedly. The mode indicators will
show which mode is selected. (Make sure that the
scan mode is not selected.)
3. The LED track represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As
you exercise, the indicators around the track will
light one at a time until you have completed 1/4
mile. A new lap will then begin.
4. To reset the display, press the on/reset button.
5. To turn off the power, simply wait for about four
minutes. Note: The console has an “auto-off”
feature. If the pedals are not moved and the
console buttons are not pressed for four
minutes, the power will turn off automatically
in order to conserve the batteries.
