BATTERY INSTALLATION

The console requires four “D” batteries. To install bat- teries, refer to assembly step 5 on page 7.

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE

Note: If there is a piece of clear plastic on the face of the console, remove it before operating the console.

1. To turn on the power, press the On/Reset button or begin pedaling.

2.Begin exercising and monitor your progress with the two displays.

have pedaled.

The display will

 

change from

 

one number to the other every seven seconds, as shown by the indicators in the display.

Right display— This display shows your

pedaling speed and the approx- imate numbers of calories and

fat calories you have burned.

When the thumb pulse sensor is used, the display will also show your heart rate (see step 3 at the right). Every seven seconds, the display will change from one number to the next, as shown by the indi- cators in the display.

To reset the displays at any time, press the On/Reset button.

3. Measure your heart rate, if desired.

To measure your heart rate, stop pedaling and place your

thumb on the pulse sensor as shown. The

pulse sensor is pressure activat-

ed—f ully press it down. Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. Next, raise your thumb slightly until the heart-shaped indicator in the right display flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this

level. After a few seconds, two dashes will

appear in the display, and then your heart rate will be

shown. Hold your thumb on

the pulse sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accurate reading. If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift your thumb off the pulse sensor and allow the display to reset. Press down again on the pulse sensor as described above.

Make sure that you are applying the proper amount of pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the pulse sensor several times until you become familiar with it. Remember to sit still while measuring your heart rate.

4.To turn off the power, simply wait for a few minutes.

The console has an “auto-off” feature. If the pedals are not moved and the On/Reset button is not pressed for a few minutes, the power will turn off automatically to conserve the batteries.
