HOW TO MEASURE YOUR BODY FAT

PERCENTAGE

CAUTION: The console uses a bioelectrical impedance analysis method to determine body fat percentage, sending a harmless signal through the body. Do not measure your body fat percentage if you have an internal medical device such as a pacemaker. Consult your physician if you have questions.

Follow the steps below to measure your body fat percentage.

1 Begin pedaling to activate the console.

See step 1 on page 13.

2 Press the Measure button.

When the Measure button is pressed, the words

“THIS PROGRAM MEASURES YOUR BODY FAT PERCENT” and “USE UP/DOWN ARROWS TO SCROLL AND ‘ENTER’ TO SELECT” will scroll across the main display.

Before the console measures your body fat per- centage, it will prompt you to enter personal data such as your age and weight. Use the Up Arrow, Down Arrow, and Enter buttons to enter informa- tion. Note: The information that appears in the main display will flash until it is modified.

3 Enter your user number.

The console can save personal data for three dif- ferent users. The words “USER 1” will appear in the main display. To designate yourself as user 1, press the Enter button. To designate yourself as user 2 or user 3, press the Up Arrow button until the words “USER 2” or “USER 3” appear in the main display. Then, press the Enter button.
