HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISE CYC E
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
For effective exer-
cise, the seat
should be at the
proper height. As
you pedal, there
should be a slight
bend in your knees
when the pedals
are in the lowest
position. To adjust
the height of the
seat, first turn the
seat knob counter-
clockwise two or
three turns to
loosen it (if the knob is not loosened enough, it may
scratch the seat post). Next, pull the knob, slide the
seat post to the desired height, and then release the
knob. Move the seat post upward and downward
slightly until the pin on the knob snaps into one of
the holes in the seat post. Then, turn the knob clock-
wise until it is tight.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDA STRAPS
To adjust the pedal
straps, first pull the
ends of the pedal
straps off the tabs
on the pedals.
Adjust the pedal
straps to the
desired position,
and then press the
ends of the pedal
straps onto the tabs.

FEATURES OF THE CONSO E
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 the touch
of a button. As you exercise, the console will display
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.
The console offers two trainer programs that automati-
cally change the resistance of the pedals and prompt
you to increase or decrease your pace while guiding
you through an effective workout.
The console also features three interactive cross train-
ing programs designed to help you to burn calories
and enhance your cardiovascular system while toning
and strengthening your muscles. The cross training
programs automatically control the resistance of the
pedals and prompt you to perform a variety of strength
exercises during your workout. Choose an upper body,
lower body, or whole body cross training program for a
focused workout. Note: The strength exercises require
the use of dumbbells and an inflatable exercise ball
(not included). To purchase dumbbells or an exer-
cise ball, call toll-free 1-888-533-1333.
You can also use two calorie goal programs designed
to help you burn 300 calories in 30- or 45-minute work-
outs. The calorie goal programs automatically control
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase
or decrease your pace while counting the calories you
burn.
To use the manual mode of the console, follow the
steps beginning on page 10. To use a trainer pro-
gram, see page 12. To use a cross training pro-
gram, see page 13. To use a calorie goal program,
see page 15.
Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face
of the console, remove the plastic.

HOW TO USE THE MANUA MODE
Press any button or begin pedaling to turn on
the console.
A moment after you turn on the console, the dis-
play will light.
Select the manual mode.
Each time you turn on the console, the manual
mode will be selected automatically. If you have
selected a program, reselect the manual mode by
pressing the Programs button repeatedly until the
words MANUAL MODE appear in the top of the
display.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of
the pedals as desired.
As you pedal, change the resistance of the ped-
als by pressing the Increase and Decrease but-
tons repeatedly. There are ten resistance levels.
Note: After you press the buttons, it will take a
moment for the pedals to reach the selected
resistance level.
Follow your progress with the display.
The left side of the
display—This side of
the display will show
the elapsed time.
Note: When a pro-
gram is selected, the
display will show the time remaining in the pro-
gram instead of the elapsed time.
The left side of the display will also show your
heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sen-
sor (see step 5 on page 11).
When a program is selected, the left side of the
display will also show the approximate number of
calories you have burned.
The center of the
display—When you
select the manual
mode, the center of
the display will show a
track that represents
1/4 mile. As you exercise, indicators will appear in
succession around the track until the entire track
appears. The track will then disappear and the
indicators will again begin to appear in succession.
The center of the dis-
play will also show the
resistance setting of
the pedals for a few
seconds each time the
resistance setting
changes.
The right side of the
display—This side of
the display will show
the distance (in miles
or kilometers) you
have pedaled and
your pedaling pace, in miles or kilometers per
hour.
The top of the dis-
play—When you
select the manual
mode, the top of the
display will show the
approximate number
of calories you have burned.
Note: The console
can display speed
and distance in
either miles or kilo-
meters. The letters
MPH or m/H will
appear in the display to indicate the selected unit
of measurement. To change the unit of measure-
ment, first hold down the Program button for sev-
eral seconds. An E (for English) or an M (for met-
ric) will appear in the display. Press the Increase
button to change the unit of measurement. When
the desired unit of measurement is selected, press
the Program button again. Note: When you
replace the batteries, it may be necessary to rese-
lect the unit of measurement.
