FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE

The revolutionary console offers an array of features

designed to make your workouts more effective and

enjoyable. When you use the manual mode of the

console, you can change the resistance of the pedals

with the touch of a button. While you exercise, the

console will display continuous exercise feedback. You

can also measure your heart rate using the handgrip

pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor.

In addition, the console offers twenty trainer workouts.

Each workout automatically changes the resistance of

the pedals as it guides you through an effective work-

out.

number 110 will

flash in the lower

right display. Press

the increase and decrease buttons located to the

left of the Heart Rate Workout buttons to enter the

desired maximum target heart rate setting (see

EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 23).

4. Begin pedaling to start the workout.

Each heart rate workout is divided into 20 or 30

one-minute segments. One target heart rate is

programmed for each segment. Note: The same

target heart rate may be programmed for consecu-

tive segments.

During the workout, the workout profile will show

your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-

ing segment of the profile represents the current

segment of the workout. The height of the seg-

ment indicates the target heart rate for the current

segment. At the end of each segment of the work-

out, a series of tones will sound and the next

segment of the profile will begin to flash.

During a heart rate workout, the console will regu-

larly compare your heart rate to the target heart

rate for the current segment of the workout. If your

heart rate is too far below or above the target

heart rate, the resistance of the pedals will auto-

matically increase or decrease to bring your heart

rate closer to the target heart rate. Each time the

resistance changes, the resistance level will

ppear in the display for a few seconds to alert

you.

If the resistance level for the current segment is

too high or too low, you can manually override the

setting by pressing the Silent Magnetic Resistance

buttons. Note: If you manually override the resis-

tance settings, you may not maintain your target

heart rate.

IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the

workout ends, the pedals will automatically

adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-

ment.

The workout will continue in this way until the last

segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,

stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will

stop counting. To restart the workout, simply

resume pedaling.

Inspect and tighten all parts of the exercise cycle reg-

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

To clean the exercise cycle, use a damp cloth and a

small amount of mild soap. IMPORTANT: To avoid

amage to the console, keep liquids away from

the console and keep the console out of direct

sunlight.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console display becomes dim, or if the audio

from the sound system stops intermittently, the batter-

ies should be replaced; most console problems are

the result of low batteries. See assembly step 5 on

page 8 for replacement instructions.

Note: If you use the sound system regularly, it is rec-

ommended that you purchase an optional

manufacturer-supplied AC adapter (see assembly step

5 on page 8).

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function prop-

erly, see step 5 on page 15.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the

reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed

switch, you must first remove the left pedal and the

eft front shield. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the

left pedal clockwise and remove it. Next, remove all

the screws from the left and right front shields; there

are two sizes of screws in the front shields–note

which size of screw you remove from each hole.

Then, gently pull the left front shield away from the

frame.

Locate the Reed Switch (46). Turn the Pulley (29) until

a Magnet (30) is aligned with the Reed Switch. Next,

loosen, but do not remove, the indicated M4 x 16mm

Screw (57). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or

away from the Magnet, and then retighten the Screw.

Turn the Pulley for a moment. Repeat these actions

until the console displays correct feedback. When the

Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the front

shields and the left pedal.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT

f the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even while

the resistance is adjusted to the highest setting, the

belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the belt, you

must first remove the right pedal and the right front

hield. Using an adjustable wrench, turn the right

pedal counterclockwise and remove it. Next, remove

ll the screws from the left and right front shields;

there are two sizes of screws in the front

shields–note which size of screw you remove

from each hole. Then, gently pull the right front

shield away from the frame.

Loosen, but do not remove, the three indicated screws

(A). Insert the shaft of a screwdriver downward

etween the Idler (B) and the Idler Pulley (38). Pull the

top of the screwdriver toward the rear of the exercise

cycle until the Drive Belt (47) is tight. Tighten the three

screws. Then, reattach the front shields and the right

edal.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise

program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a

reputable book or consult your physician. Remember,

proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for

successful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-

sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your

heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.

The chart below shows recommended heart rates for

fat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the

bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-

est ten years). The three numbers listed above your

age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is

the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the

heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest

number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-

cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of

time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your

ody uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after

the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin

to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to

burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your

heart rate is near the lowest number in your training

zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your

heart rate near the middle number in your training

zone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your

cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic

exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts

of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic

exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until

your heart rate is near the highest number in your

training zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching

and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body

temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation

for exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-

utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During

the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not

keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer

than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you

exercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of

stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your

muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete three

workouts each week, with at least one day of rest

between workouts. After a few months of regular exer-

cise, you may complete up to five workouts each

week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to

make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your

everyday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING:Before beginning

this or any exercise program, consult your

physician. This is especially important for

ersons over the age of 35 or persons with

pre-existing health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors may affect the accuracy of

heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is

intended only as an exercise aid in determin-

ing heart rate trends in general.

UGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right.

Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch

Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from

your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach

down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,

then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees

and back.

2. Hamstring Stretch

Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot

toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended

leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15

counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:

Hamstrings, lower back and groin.

3. Calf/Achilles Stretch

With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your

hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back

foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move

your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat

3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles

tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles

tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch

With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp

one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your

buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3

times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.

5. Inner Thigh Stretch

Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.

Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for

15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Quadriceps and

hip muscles.
