FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The revolutionary 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
with the touch of a button. While you exercise, the
console will display continuous exercise feedback. You
can also measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. Note:
For information about the optional chest pulse
sensor, see page 19.
The console features eight smart programs. Each pro-
gram automatically changes the resistance of the ped-
als and prompts you to vary your pedaling pace as it
guides you through an effective workout.
The console also offers two heart rate programs that
automatically control the resistance of the pedals and
prompt you to maintain a constant pedaling pace to
keep your heart rate near target heart rate settings dur-
ing your workouts. You can also select a watts program
that changes the resistance of the pedals to keep your
power output near a target level.
In addition, the console features two motivational inter-
active games.Using the dual game controllers, play
the challenging Fat Blocker™ game or the fast-paced
Calorie Destroyer™game during your workouts—the
harder you exercise, the greater the advantage you will
have! The console keeps track of the four highest
scores for each game—compete with other users or try
to top your own high score.
Touse the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 11. To use a smart program,

name of the
desired program
appears in the display. The program time and a
profile of the resistance levels for the program will
also appear in the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 20 or 30 one-minute
segments. One resistance level and one target
pace setting are programmed for each segment.
Note: The same resistance level and/or target
pace setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive segments.
The program profile will show your progress (see
the drawing above). The flashing segment of the
profile represents the current segment of the pro-
gram. The height of the flashing segment indicates
the resistance level for the current segment.
When the first segment of the program ends, the
resistance level and the target pace for the second
segment will appear in the center of the display for
afew 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 exercise,
you will be prompt-
edto keep your
pedaling pace near
the target pace set-
ting 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 settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your actu-
al pace may be slower than the target pace set-
tings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is com-
fortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Quick Resistance buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
program ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.
The program will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the program at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the pro-
gram, simply resume pedaling. To reset the pro-
gram, press the Start/Reset button.

gram time and a profile of the target heart rate set-
tings for the program will also appear in the dis-
play.
3. Enter a target heart rate setting.
When you select a
heart rate program,
the maximum tar-
get heart rate set-
ting will flash in the
center of the dis-
play.If desired, use
the increase and
decrease buttons to change the maximum target
heart rate setting, and then press the Enter button.
Note: If you change the maximum target heart rate
setting, the intensity level of the entire program will
change.
4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor or wear the
optional chest pulse sensor.
To use a heart rate program, you must hold the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest
pulse sensor (see page 19 for information about
the optional chest pulse sensor). Note: If you hold
the handgrip pulse sensor and wear the chest
pulse sensor at the same time, the console will not
display your heart rate accurately.
If you use the handgrip pulse sensor, it is not nec-
essary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continu-
ously during a heart rate program; however, you
should hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently
for the program to operate properly. Each time
you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your
hands on the metal contacts for at least 30
seconds.
5. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each heart rate program is divided into either 20
or 30 one-minute segments. One target heart rate
setting is programmed for each segment. Note:
The same target heart rate setting may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive segments.
The target heart rate setting for the first segment
will be indicated by the height of the flashing seg-
ment of the profile in the display. The target heart
rate settings for the next several segments will be
indicated by the height of the profile to the right of
the flashing segment.
When the first segment of the program ends, the
next segment of the profile will begin to flash. The
target heart rate setting for the next segment will
then be indicated by the height of the flashing seg-
ment of the profile.

15
As you pedal, the console will regularly compare
your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
You will also be
prompted to pedal
at a steady pace.
When an upward
arrow appears in
the display,
increase your
pace. When a downward arrow appears, decrease
your pace. When no arrow appears in the display,
maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to pedal at a pace that
is comfortable for you. Note: You can manually
override the resistance levels; however, you might
not maintain the target heart rate. Also, when the
console compares your heart rate to the target
heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals may
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
The program will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the program at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the pro-
gram, simply resume pedaling. To reset the pro-
gram, press the Start/Reset button.
6. Follow your progress with the display.

HOW TO PLAY THE FAT BLOCKER GAME
The Fat Blocker game requires quick thinking and fast
reflexes. In addition to the console buttons, you will
use the four-button game controllers on the handlebar
to play the game. Follow the steps below to play the
Fat Blocker game.
1. Begin pedaling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 11.
2. Select the Fat Blocker game.
To select the Fat Blocker game, press the Fat
Blocker button. The words FAT BLOCKER will
appear at the top of the display.
3. Pedal to start the game.
When you start the Fat Blocker game, a game
arena will appear in the center of the display.
A block composed of four or five black squares will
slowly move downward until it reaches the bottom
of the arena. Another block will then move down-
ward. There are blocks of eight different shapes.
As each block falls, you can move it to the left or
right using the left and right buttons on the left
controller. In addition, you can rotate the block
counterclockwise or clockwise using the left and
right buttons on the right controller.Once you have
positioned and oriented a block, you can speed its
motion to the bottom of the arena, if desired, by
pressing the down button on either controller.
Your goal is to
maneuver the
blocks so that they
form a complete
row of black
squares across the
entire arena. Each
time you complete a row of black squares, the row
will disappear, and all blocks above will move
downward one row.
As you play, the blocks will fall faster and faster;
however, your pedaling pace will affect the speed
of the blocks—the faster you pedal, the more
slowly the blocks will fall, giving you extra time to
position and orient the blocks. The game will con-
tinue until any part of a stacked block reaches the
top of the arena.
When the game ends, the display will show your
final score and the level of play that you reached.
The display will then show the four highest scores
recorded since the scores were reset. If desired,
press and hold down the right button on either
controller to reset the scores. Note: If your score is
one of the four highest, the display will prompt you
to enter a name consisting of three letters or dig-
its. While the line below the first letter is flashing,
press the up and down buttons on either controller
to select the desired letter or digit. Next, press the
right button on either controller and select another
letter or digit. Repeat this process to select a third
letter or digit. Then, press the right button on either
controller again. The display will then show the
four highest scores recorded since the scores
were reset.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
While you exercise and play the Fat Blocker
game, the corners of the display will show the
elapsed time, the approximate number of calories
you have burned, and your pedaling pace. In addi-
tion, the display will show your current score and
the game level that you have reached.
Topause the game, press the Display button. To
resume the game, press the Display button
repeatedly until the words FAT BLOCKER appear
at the top of the display,and then begin pedaling.
To reset the game, press the Start/Reset button.

HOW TO PLAY THE CALORIE DESTROYER GAME
The Calorie Destroyer game is a fast-paced game that
pits you against a squadron of laser-firing drones. In
addition to the console buttons, you will use the four-
button game controllers on the handlebar to play the
game. Follow the steps below to play the Calorie
Destroyer game.
1. Begin pedaling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 11.

When you start the Calorie Destroyer game, a
game arena will appear in the display. Three rows
of drones will begin to move across the top of the
arena, periodically firing their lasers downward.
Each time the drones reach the left or right side of
the arena, they will reverse direction and move
downward.
At the bottom of the arena is a laser blaster. You
can fire the laser blaster at the drones by pressing
the up button on either controller.In addition, while
you are pedaling, you can move the laser blaster
to the left or right using the left and right buttons
on either controller.The faster you pedal, the
faster the laser blaster will move.
Between the drones and the laser blaster are five
shields. You can hide the laser blaster below a
shield if desired. However, each time a shield is hit
by a laser, a piece will be vaporized.
Your goal is to keep the laser blaster from being
hit and to keep any drone from reaching the bot-
tom of the arena. If the laser blaster is hit, it will be
disabled and another laser blaster will appear in its
place; there are a total of four laser blasters. If you
vaporize the entire squadron of drones, a new
squadron will appear.
As you play, the drones will move faster and
faster. The game will continue until all four laser
blasters are disabled or a drone reaches the bot-
tom of the arena.
When the game ends, the display will show the
level of play that you reached and your final score.
The display will then show the four highest scores
recorded since the scores were reset. If desired,
