DIAGRAM OF THE CONSOLE Fan Button Program Profiles Increase Button Program Button Program Indicator Display Pace Guide Decrease Button FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE The advanced console offers a selection of features designed to make your workouts more 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 pedal, the console will provide continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the built-in handgrip pulse sensor. 1. Turn on the console. To turn on the console, press the Increase button or begin pedaling. The pace guide will light for a moment; the console will then be ready for use. 2. Select the manual mode. In addition, the console features two pulse programs that change the resistance of the pedals and help you to maintain a steady pedaling pace to keep your heart rate near a target heart rate setting while you exercise. The console also offers four preset programs. Each program 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. To use the manual mode of the console, see the instructions at the right. To use a pulse program, see page 14. To use a preset program, see page 15. Before using the console, make sure that batteries are installed (see assembly step 5 on page 8). If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the display, remove the plastic. When the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. If you have selected a program, reselect the manual mode by pressing the Program button repeatedly until no program indicators (see the drawing above) appear along the left side of the display. 3. Change the resistance of the pedals as desired. As you pedal, change the resistance of the pedals by pressing the Increase and Decrease buttons. There are ten resistance levels. Note: After the buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected resistance level. 12
