Measure your heart rate if desired. If there are sheets of clear plastic on the Contacts metal contacts on the handgrip pulse sensor, remove the plas- tic. To measure your heart rate, hold the handgrip pulse sensor with your palms resting against the metal contacts. Avoid moving your hands or gripping the con- tacts too tightly. When your pulse is detected, one, two, or three dashes will appear in the display, and then your heart rate will appear. For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the contacts for at least 15 seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the handgrip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate for up to 30 seconds. If the display does not show your heart rate, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Be careful not to move your hands excessively or to squeeze the metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance, clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals to clean the contacts. Turn on the fan if desired. To turn on the fan at low speed, press the Fan button once. To turn on the fan at high speed, press the Fan button a second time. To turn off the fan, press the Fan button a third time. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. If the pedals do not move for several seconds, a tone will sound and the console will pause. If the pedals do not move for several minutes and the buttons are not pressed, the console will turn off and the display will be reset. HOW TO USE A CROSS TRAINER PROGRAM Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console. A moment after you begin pedaling or press a button, the display will light. Select a cross trainer program. To select one of the nine cross Profile trainer programs, press the Interactive Cross Trainer Programs button repeatedly until Program 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 appears in the display. The program time and a profile of the resistance set- tings for the program will also appear in the dis- play. After a moment, the voice of a personal trainer will welcome you to the program and guide you through the workout. To adjust the volume level of the speakers, press the increase and decrease buttons until the desired volume level is selected. There are five volume levels. Begin pedaling to start the program. Each program is divided into either 30 or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance setting and one target rpm (pace) setting are programmed for most segments. (Note: The same resistance and/or target rpm setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.) During other segments, the console will prompt you to perform strength exercises. The resistance setting and the target rpm for the first segment will appear in the center of the display for a few seconds. The resistance setting will then be indicated by the height of the flashing column of the profile in the display. The resistance settings for the next several segments will be indicated by the heights of the columns to the right of the flashing column. When the first segment of the program ends, the resistance setting and the target rpm for the second segment will appear in the center of the display for a few seconds to alert you. The entire profile will then shift one column to the left, and the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance setting for the second segment. 15
