Data Entry Zone

DATA ENTRY ZONE: Allows information pertinent to the program selected to be entered.

PROGRAM SELECT: This is where to select the workout program. Each time you press the PROGRAM SELECT key, an LED light will move from left to right to the next program option. When the program you want is displayed press ENTER or wait 10 seconds and your choice will be automatically entered.

START: Activates the display console once you begin pedaling and is then inactive for the remainder of the workout.

ENTER: Actually executes the input of any information keyed in. It is not necessary to press ENTER when keying in a new effort level.

RACE ON / OFF: Lets you toggle in and out of the Race mode at any time in the Manual, Random and Hill programs. The Speed / RPM display will toggle between RPMs and MPH / KPH every five seconds. The MPH / KPH will be dependent on the pedal speed and the level chosen. See the Race Option inset later in this manual.

CLEAR / PAUSE: Use this key to clear data before pressing the ENTER key. This key will also put your workout program on hold or restart it. To put a workout on hold, press the key once and continue pedaling (remember, pedaling powers the machine; if you stop pedaling, all power is lost and the display will go blank). Pedal resistance drops to the minimum when the Lifecycle exercise bike is paused and the stopwatch function is activated and the elapsed time window begins counting up from zero. Use this as a brief rest period if you feel fatigued or to take your heart rate. Resume the workout by pressing ENTER once, or end the workout by pressing CLEAR/PAUSE twice.

NUMERIC KEYS: Use these keys to enter riding time, level of difficulty and Heart Rate or Fit Test data. You can select a workout duration of anywhere from 1 to 99minutes. You also enter a different resistance level than your current level, a different target heart rate for the Fat Burn and Cardio programs, or Fit Test data such as age, gender or weight via the numeric keypad.

WATTS (0) and METS (8): This key allows you to view your workout results in Watts or METS. (For more information on Watts and METS please see Watts / METS Programmability Option.)

60 minutes is the factory setting for the Maximum Program Duration. To increase or decrease the Maximum Program Duration see the Optional Settings for the Lifecycle exercise bike section.
