Starting a program
Quick Start
After the console powers up you may press the Start key to begin, this will initiate the Quick Start mode. In Quick Start the Time will count up from zero and the workload may be adjusted manually by pressing the Up/Down buttons. Distance and Calories will accrue, starting from zero.
The Calorie window will switch between Calories and Watts every 5 seconds. The Calorie reading shows total Calories burned and is an approximate number. The Watt reading indicates how much work you are doing. If the Watt reading is 100, this means you are doing enough work to light a 100 watt light bulb.
The bottom left data window will switch between RPM and Speed every 5 seconds. RPM is your actual pedal rotation speed, and the Speed readout is in KPH, indicating approximate road speed as if pedaling a bicycle in 7th gear.
The Distance window shows distance traveled, based on pedal speed, in miles. The Pulse window will display your heart rate in beats per minute if you are holding the heart rate hand sensors, or wearing a chest strap transmitter.
Manual
Using the Up/Down keys, highlight the Manual icon at the top of the display and press Mode key. The profile will be blinking and you may use the Up/Down keys to adjust the program work level and then press Mode. The Time window will now be blinking. Use the Up/Down keys to adjust the program Time and then press Mode. The Distance window will now be blinking and you can adjust a target Distance using the Up/Down keys then press Mode. Calories will now be blinking, repeat the same process as above to set, then press Mode. The Watt icon will be blinking. If you choose to set the Watts then the machine will automatically adjust the workload to maintain continuous work. What this means is that if you set the Watt to 100 the machine will try to keep you working at a rate of work that equals 100 Watts (or working at a rate that will keep a 100 Watt light bulb burning). Watts are determined by the amount of work you are doing. On the elliptical this means the speed you are pedaling at combined with the workload of the machine. In Watt mode, if you change your speed the machine will automatically change the workload to maintain the same Watt level. If you pedal faster the workload will decrease and if you pedal slower the workload increases.
After adjusting all the parameters, press Start to begin your workout.
