Features of the Console

The advanced console offers an array of features designed to make your workouts more effective and enjoyable.

When you select the manual mode of the console, you can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the console will display continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip pulse sensor.

The console also features six interactive cross training programs designed to help you to burn calories and enhance your cardiovascular system while toning and strengthening your muscles. The cross training pro- grams automatically control the resistance of the ped- als and prompt you to perform a variety of strength exercises during your workout. Choose an upper body, lower body, or total body cross training program to focus your workout. Note: The strength exercises require the use of dumbbells and an inflatable exercise ball (not included). To purchase dumbbells or an exercise ball, call the toll-free telephone number on the front cover of this manual.

The console also offers two heart rate programs. The heart rate profile program allows you to enter a maxi- mum heart rate setting and then guides you through an effective workout by automatically changing the resis- tance of the pedals and prompting you to maintain a steady pedaling pace.

The heart rate control program allows you to enter a target heart rate and then changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you to vary your pace to keep your heart rate near the target heart rate while you exercise.

To use the manual mode of the console, follow the steps beginning on page 13. To use a cross training program, see page 14. To use a heart rate program, see page 16.

Note: If there is a sheet of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove the plastic.
