HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

Turn on the console.

To turn on the console, press the Increase button

or begin pedaling. The pace guide will light for a

moment; the console will then be ready for use.

Select the manual mode.

When you turn on the console, the manual mode

will be selected. If you have selected a program,

reselect the manual mode by pressing the

Program button repeatedly until no program indi-

cators (see the drawing on page 12) appear along

the left side of the display.

Change the resistance of the pedals as desired.

As you pedal,

change the resis-

tance of the pedals

by pressing the

Increase and

Decrease buttons.

There are ten resis-

tance levels. Note: After you press the buttons, it

will take a moment for the pedals to reach the

selected resistance level.

Follow your progress with the display.

The upper half of

the display will

show the elapsed

time, the distance

(in total revolutions)

you have pedaled,

and the resistance

level of the pedals. The display will change modes

every few seconds. Note: When Program 1, 3, or 4

is selected, the display will show the time remain-

ing in the program instead of the elapsed time.

The lower half of the

display will show

your pedaling

speed, in revolu-

tions per minute

(RPM), and the

approximate num-

ber of calories you have burned. The display will

change modes every few seconds. The lower half

of the display will also show your heart rate when

you use the handgrip pulse sensor (see step 5).

Measure your heart rate if desired.

If there are sheets

of clear plastic on

the metal contacts

on the handgrip

pulse sensor,

remove the plastic.

Next, hold the

handgrip pulse sen-

sor with your palms resting on the contacts. When

your pulse is detected, the heart-shaped indicator

in the lower half of the display will flash each time

your heart beats, and then your heart rate will

appear in the display.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue

to hold the handgrip pulse sensor for about 30

seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand-

grip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart

rate for about 30 seconds. The display will then

show your heart rate along with the other modes.

If your heart rate does not appear, make sure that

your hands are positioned as described. Avoid

moving your hands excessively or squeezing the

metal contacts too tightly. For optimal performance,

periodically clean the metal contacts using a soft

cloth;

never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemi-

cals to clean the contacts.

Turn on the fan if desired.

To turn on the fan at low speed, press the Fan

button. 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. Note: If the fan

is turned on but the pedals do not move for thirty

seconds, the fan will automatically turn off to con-

serve the batteries.

Rotate the thumb

tab on the right side

of the fan to adjust

the angle of the fan.

When you are finished exercising, the console

will turn off automatically.

If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the

time will begin to flash in the display and the con-

sole will pause. If the pedals do not move for a

few minutes, the console will turn off and the dis-

play will be reset.
