If you have selected a program or the iFIT.com mode, reselect the manual mode by pressing the Program button repeatedly until a track appears in the left display. Make sure that the letters "iFIT" do not appear in the display. 3 Begin pedaling and change the resistance of the pedals as desired. As you pedal, change the resistance of the pedals by pressing the Resistance buttons. There are ten resistance levels-level 10 is the most challenging. Note: After the buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the pedals to reach the selected resistance level. 4 Monitor your progress with the two displays. The left display- A track representing 1/4 mile will appear in the upper part of the left display. As you exercise, the indicators around the track will light in succession until the entire track is lit. The track will then disappear and the indicators will again begin to light in succession.The lower part of the left display will show your pedaling pace, in revolutions per minute (RPM). The right display-The upper part of the right display will show the distance (total number of revolutions) you have pedaled and the approximate number of calories you have burned. The display will change from one number to the other every few seconds. The upper part of the display will also show your heart rate when you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5 below). The center of the right display will show the elapsed time. Note: When a program is selected (except for pulse control program 2), the display will show the time remaining in the program instead of the elapsed time. The lower part of the right display will show the resistance level of the pedals. To reset the displays, press the On/Reset button. 5 Measure your heart rate if desired. If there are thin sheets of plastic on the metal con- tacts on the handgrip pulse sensor, peel off the Contacts plastic. Place your hands on the handgrip pulse sensor, with your palms on the upper contacts and your fingers touching the lower contacts. Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the upper part of the right display will begin to flash each time your heart beats. After a moment, one or two dashes will appear and then your heart rate will be shown. 9
