Distance-This section of the main display will show the distance that you have pedalled, in miles or kilometres. Calories/Watts-This section of the main display will show the approximate number of Calories you have burned and your power output in watts. The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. Note: If you enter your weight into the console, the console will measure your Calorie expenditure more accurately. To enter your weight, press the ENTER AGE/WT. button. The words "ENTER WEIGHT" and the current weight setting will scroll across the main display. To enter your weight, press the + and - buttons beside the ENTER AGE/WT. button. When your weight is shown, press the ENTER AGE/WT. button again. Pulse/% Max-When you use the handgrip pulse sensor or a Polar®-compatible chest pulse sensor (not included), this section of the main display will show your heart rate (see step 6). When a pulse program is selected, the display will show your heart rate and the corresponding percentage of your estimated maximum heart rate (see step 5 on page 17 for an explanation of your estimated maximum heart rate). The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. Speed/RPM-The right end of the main display will show your pedalling speed, in miles per hour or kilometres per hour, and your pedalling cadence, in revolutions per minute. The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. To reset the main display at any time, press the CLEAR button. 6 Measure your pulse if desired. If there are thin sheets of plastic on the metal contacts on the hand- Contacts grip pulse sensor, peel off the plas- tic. To measure your pulse, hold the contacts; your thumbs must be resting on the inner contacts, and your fingers must be touching the outer contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the PULSE indicator above the main display will light, and then your heart rate will be shown. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds without moving your hands. If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, clean the contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals. 7 When you are finished using the recumbent bike, the console will automatically enter an idle mode or turn off. If the power cord is being used, the words "PUSH ANY BUTTON TO START A NEW WORKOUT" will begin to scroll across the main display if the pedals are not moved for a few minutes. Unplug the power cord when the recumbent bike is not in use. If the power cord is not being used, the console will automatically turn off if the pedals are not moved for several seconds. 11
