STEP-BY-STEP CONSOLE OPERATION Before the console can be operated, the batteries must be installed. (See assembly step 11 on page 7 for installation instructions.) Follow the steps below to operate the console. 1 Turn on the power To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or simply begin exercising. When the power is turned on, the entire display will appear for two seconds. The console will then be ready for use. Note: If batteries were just installed, the power will already be on. 2 Select one of the three pacer programs or the manual mode When the power is first turned on, the console will be in the manual mode. To select one of the pacer programs, repeatedly press the program button. The program indicator will show which program you have selected. The programs will be selected in the following order: the manual mode, the 6 MPH/30 RPM program, the 12 MPH/60 RPM program, and the 18 MPH/ 90 RPM program. Note: Once you select a pacer program, you can reselect the manual mode by repeatedly pressing the program button. If you selected a pacer program, two indicators on the Target Pace P.A.C.E.R. track will light. The indicator on the inner track Actual Pace will show your actual pace. The indicator on the outer track will move around the track at the programmed pace. As you exercise, adjust your pace so that the indicators on the inner and outer tracks remain even. As the program progresses, the tar- get pace will change periodically; as the target pace changes, you should also adjust your pace. Important: The target pace is a goal pace. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Be sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. 4 Follow your progress with the monitor modes When the power is turned on, the con- sole will scan through the five modes automatically. A flashing mode indi- Mode Indicator cator will show which mode is currently dis- played. When the Laps mode is displayed, an ÒLÓ will also appear. If desired, the display can be reset by pressing the on/reset button. The PROFORM¨ 975s also features an innovative handgrip pulse sensor. The pulse display allows you to monitor your heart rate during your workout. To use the pulse sensor, see page 11. 5 Turn off the power To turn off the power, simply wait for about six minutes. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for six minutes, the power will turn off automatically. 3 Begin your workout If you selected the manual mode, one indicator on the inner P.A.C.E.R. track will light. As you exercise, this indicator will move around the quartermile track. 10
