HOW TO INSTALL THE RECEmVER FOR THE OPTmONAL CHEST PULSE SENSOR
if you purchase the optional chest pulse sensor (see page 19), follow the steps bebw to install the receiver
included with the chest pube sensor,
1, See assemMy step 4 on page 5, and remove the two
M4 x 25mm Screws (not shown) and the Bookrack
(55),
Next, bok under the consob and bcate the three indi-
cated screws (not shown), Remove the three screws,
Do not remove the screws attaching the Console to
the Handlebar Post (6}.
2, Carefully lift the top of the Console (9) as shown, Using

shown), Note: The remaining wires included with the
chest pulse sensor may be discarded,

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
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 changed
with the touch of a button, As you exercise, the con°
sob will provide continuous exercise feedback, You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor, Note: See page 19 for information
about an optional chest pulse sensor.
The console also offers six preset programs, Each pro-
gram automatically changes the resistance of the ped-
als and prompts you to increase or decrease your pace
as it guides you through an effective workout,
in addition, the console features two heart rate pro-
grams that automatically change the resistance of the
pedals and prompt you to vary your pace to keep your
heart rate near a target heart rate as you exercise,
The console also features iFIT,com interactive technolo
ogy, Having iFIT,com interactive technology is like havo
ing a personal trainer in your home, Using the included
audio cable, you can connect the exercise cycle to your
home stereo, portable stereo, computer, or VCR and
play special iFIT,com CD and video programs (iFIT,com
CDs and videocassettes are available separately),
iFIT,com CD and video programs automatically control
the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to vary
your pace as a personal trainer coaches you through
every step of your workout, High-energy music pro-
vides added motivation, To purchase iFIT.com CDs
and videocassettes, call totFfree 1-877-994-4999.

Press the Program Start button or begin
pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into severaUtime seg-
ments of different bngths. One resistance setting
is programmed for each segment. (The same
resistance setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.)
The resistance
setting for the first Current Segment
segment will be
shown in the flash-
ing Current
Segment column
of the matrix. The
resistance settings
for the next five
segments will be shown in the columns to the
right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, a series of tones will sound;

The program wili continue until the resistance set-
ting for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column of the matrix and no time
remains in the program.
Note: During the program, you can override the
resistance setting for the current segment by
pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when
the next segment begins, the resistance will auto-
matically change if a different resistance setting is
programmed for the next segment, if you stop
pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound
and the program will pause. To restart the pro-
gram, simply resume pedaling.
Use the pace (RPM} guide.
During preset pro-
grams, the pace
guide wiii prompt
you to increase or

HOW TO USE HEART RATE PROGRAMS
Heart rate program 1 is designed to keep your heart
rate between 60% and 85% of your e_£timatedmaxi-
mz,;w hea,Y rate while you exercise, Note: Your maxi-
mum heart rate is estimated by subtracting your age
from 220, For example, if you are 30 years old, your
estimated maximum heart rate is 190 (220 - 30 =
190),
Heart rate program 2 will keep your heart rate near a
target heart rate that you select,
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program,
Begin pedaling to activate the console.

To use a heart rate program, you must hold the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest
pulse sensor, if you use the handgrip pulse sen-
sor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips con-
tinuously during the program, However, you
should hold the handgrips frequently for the pro-
gram to operate properly, Each time you hold
the handgrips, keep your hands on the metal
contacts for at teast 30 seeonds. Note: When
you are not holding the handgrips, the letters
"PLS" will appear in the lower display instead of
your heart rate,

Begin pedaling.
Each heart rate program is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate is pro-
grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar-
get heart rate may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments, if heart rate pro-
gram 2 is sebcted, the same target heart rate is
programmed for aHsegments.
If heart rate pro-
gram 1 is select- Current Segment
ed, the target
heart rate setting
for the first seg-
ment wHUbe

flashing Current
Segment coUumn
of the matrix. The target heart rate settings for the
next five segments wHUbe shown in the coUumns

heart rate setting for the second segment will

If heart rate program 2 is selected, the same
target heart rate is programmed for all segments;
therefore, the target heart rate settings will not be
shown in the matrix. When only three seconds
remain in the first segment of the program, a
series of tones will sound and the time will flash
in the right display.
As you pedal, the console will regularly compare
your heart rate to the target heart rate. If your
heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will auto-
matically increase or decrease to being your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate.
