you to increase or decrease your pace to bring
your heart rate closer to the target heart rate.
When the right indicator changes in height,
increase or decrease your pace so that both indi-
cators are at the same height. If your pace is
slower than the current target pace, the increase
arrow will appear in the display; if your pace is
faster than the target pace, the decrease arrow
will appear. Important: The target pace is
intended only to provide a goal. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target pace,
especially during the first few months of your
exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
If you continue pedalling after the program is
completed, the display will continue to show your
exercise feedback.
Follow your progress with the feedback
modes.
See step 4 on page 13.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 6 on page 13.
The watts program is designed to keep your power
output near a target watts level that you set. Follow
the steps below to use the watts program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 13.
Select the watts program.
Each time the
console is turned
on, the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select the watts
program, press
the Program but-
ton repeatedly until the number 8 appears in the
upper right corner of the display.
Enter a target watts level.
When the watts program is selected, the watts
mode indicator and a target watts level of 20 will
appear in the display (see the drawing above).
Press the + or – button repeatedly to change the
target watts level, if desired. The target watts
level can be from 20 to 250.
Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin pedalling. The
watts program consists of forty, one-minute peri-
ods. The same target watts level is programmed
for all periods.
During the program, the resistance of the exer-
cise cycle may periodically change to keep your
power output near the target watts level that you
set. Note: If the current resistance level is too
high or too low, press the + or – buttons.
Pressing the + and – buttons will change the tar-
get watts setting.

Turn on the console.
Note: The console requires four 1.5V “D” batteries
(see assembly step 4 on page 5).
To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button
or begin pedalling.
Select the manual mode.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be select-
ed. If a pro-
gram has been
selected, select
the manual mode by pressing the Program button
repeatedly until the upper right corner of the dis-
play is blank.
Begin pedalling and adjust the resistance of
the exercise cycle.
As you pedal, adjust the resistance of the exer-
cise cycle as desired by pressing the + and –
buttons. There are ten resistance levels; level 10
is the most challenging. Note: After the buttons
are pressed, it will take a few seconds for the
selected setting to be reached.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes
and the left pace indicator.
When the con-
sole is turned
on, the scan
mode will be
selected. As
you pedal, the
display will
show your cur-
rent speed, the elapsed time, the current resis-
tance level, the approximate number of calories
you have burned, the distance that you have
pedaled, and your power output in watts. In addi-
tion, your heart rate will be shown when you use
the handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sen-
sor. Note: Each time the resistance level
changes, the console will show the resistance
level for six seconds. When a program is select-
ed, the display will show the time remaining in
the program instead of the elapsed time.
If desired, you can select a single feedback mode
for continuous display. Press the Display button
repeatedly until only the MPH (or Km/H), Time,
Resist., Cals., Miles (or Kms), or Watts indicator
appears in the display. Make sure that the Scan
indicator does not appear.
In addition, the left pace indicator will appear in the
display. As you increase or decrease your pace,
the indicator will increase or decrease in height.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
Note: If you wear the chest pulse sensor and
hold the handgrip pulse sensor at the same
time, the console may not display your heart
rate accurately.
If there are thin
sheets of plas-
tic on the metal
contacts on the
handgrip pulse
sensor, peel off
the plastic. To
use the handgrip
pulse sensor,
place your hands on the metal contacts. Your
palms must be on the upper contacts and your
fingers must be touching the lower contacts.
Avoid moving your hands. When your pulse is
detected, the heart-shaped indicator in the dis-
play will flash each time your heart beats. After a
moment, two dashes (– –) will appear and then
your heart rate will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 15 seconds. Note:
When you first hold the handgrips, the display will
show your heart rate continuously for 15 sec-
onds. The display will then show your heart rate
along with the other feedback modes.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
If the pedals are not moved and the console but-
tons are not pressed for a few minutes, the con-
sole will automatically turn off to conserve
the batteries.
