HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE 1 Turn on the power Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged in (see page 9). To turn on the power, press the START/PAUSE button or simply begin exercising. The console will sound a tone and various displays and indicators will light. Note: If you have moved the pedals, the power will already be on. 2 Select the manual mode Each time the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected, as shown by the MANUAL CONTROL indicator. If a workout program has been selected, press the PROGRAM SELECT button repeatedly to scroll through the programs and select the manual mode. Note: When you press the PROGRAM SELECT button, the incline will automatically change to its lowest position. 3 Begin exercising and adjust the incline and resistance As you exercise in manual mode, adjust the incline and resistance as desired by pressing the INCLINE and RESISTANCE buttons. Note: After the buttons are pressed, it may take a few seconds for the selected setting to be reached. 4 Follow your progress with the console displays As you exercise, the LED matrix will display the distance you have traveled on a quarter-mile track. The indicators around the track will light one at a time until the entire track is lit. A new lap will then begin. In addition, the two displays will show the elapsed time, distance, incline level, laps completed, current speed, calories burned, and resistance level, in five-second intervals. Your heart rate will also be shown when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5). Note: The console can display speed in either miles per hour or kilometers per hour. When the power is first turned on, the letters ÒMÓ or ÒKÓ will appear in the LED matrix to show which measurement is selected. To change the measurement, simultaneously press the INCLINE v and RESISTANCE v but- tons until the console sounds a tone and the new measurement appears. Note: If you select miles per hour, distance will be displayed in miles. If you select kilometers per hour, distance will be displayed in kilometers. 5 Measure your heart rate if desired To use the pulse sensor, place your hands on the Metal Contacts metal contacts. Your palms must be resting on the upper contacts and your fingers must be touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator below the right display will flash each time your heart beats. After a moment, three dashes (Ð Ð Ð) will appear and your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the contacts for about 15 seconds. The display will show your heart rate for up to two minutes; the display will then show your current speed, calories burned, your heart rate, and the resistance level, in five-second intervals. Note: Your heart rate will be shown only when the pulse sensor is used. 6 When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off after ten minutes If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for ten minutes, the console will automatically switch into a ÒsleepÓ mode. Note: Unplug the power cord following each use. 12
