CONSOLE DESCRIPTION

Refer to the drawing on page 10. Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the face of the con- sole, remove it.

A.Exercise feedback display—This display features seven modes that give you instant exercise feed- back: your current speed, the elapsed time (or the time remaining in a Smart program or a Heart Rate program), the distance that you have pedaled, the resistance level, the approximate number of calo-

ries you have burned, the approximate number of fat calories you have burned (see FAT BURNING

on page 21), and your heart rate (when you use the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor). If the scan mode is selected, the display will change from one mode to the next every six seconds. Or, you can select a single mode for continuous display.

Note: The console can show speed and distance

in either miles or kilometers. To change the unit of measurement, hold down the On/Reset button for six seconds. The mode indicators (see E. below) will show which unit of measurement is selected. When the batteries are replaced, it may be necessary to reselect the desired unit of measurement.

B.Increase and decrease arrows—During Smart pro- grams, Heart Rate programs, and iFIT.com pro- grams, these arrows will prompt you to increase or decrease your pace to match the target pace.

C.Manual mode/program indicator—When a Smart

program is selected, the upper right corner of the display will show a 1, 2, 3, or 4, depending on which Smart program is selected. When a Heart

Rate program is selected, the upper right corner of the display will show a 5 or 6. When the iFIT.com mode is selected, the upper right corner will show the letters IF. When the manual mode is selected, the upper right corner will be blank.

D.Program profiles—These profiles show how the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer and the tar- get pace will change during Smart programs and Heart Rate programs. For example, profile number

3 shows that during Smart program 3, both the resistance and the pace will gradually increase during the first half of the program, and then grad- ually decrease during the last half.

E.Feedback mode indicators—These indicators show

which feedback mode (scan, speed, time, distance, resistance level, calories, fat calories, or heart rate) is currently shown. Note: When the distance is

shown, the word Miles or the letters Kms will appear; when your speed is shown, the letters MPH or Km/H will appear.

F.Pace indicators—When the manual mode is select- ed, only the left pace indicator will appear. This pace indicator represents your exercise pace. As you increase or decrease your pace, additional bars will appear or disappear on the pace indicator. When a Smart program, a Heart Rate program, or

the iFIT.com mode is selected, both pace indica- tors will appear. The left pace indicator represents your exercise pace, and the right pace indicator represents a target pace. During the program, the target pace will periodically change. As the right pace indicator changes, simply adjust your pace so that the same number of bars appear on both pace

indicators.

Important: The target pace is a

goal

pace. Your actual pace may be slower than the

 

target

pace, especially during the first few

 

months

of

your exercise program. Make sure to

 

exercise

at a pace that is comfortable for you.

 

G. On/Reset button—When the console is off, pressing

this button will turn on the display. When the con- sole is on, pressing this button will reset the dis- play. This button is also used to select the unit of measurement for speed and distance (see A. at the

left).

H.Display Mode button—This button is used to select the feedback modes. The modes will be selected

in the following order: scan, speed, time, distance, resistance level, calories, fat calories, and heart

rate (when the handgrip pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor is used).

I.+ and – buttons—These buttons control the resis- tance of the elliptical crosstrainer. There are ten resistance levels; level 10 is the most challenging. These buttons are also used to enter your age

when a Heart Rate program is selected.

J.Program button—This button is used to select the

manual mode, Smart programs, and Heart Rate programs.

K.IFIT.com button—This button is used to select the iFIT.com mode. The indicator on the button will light when the iFIT.com mode is selected.
