The console display features three Data Display Areas and a Speedometer Bar. Each of the three Data Display Areas can be set to display your exercise information by using the SCAN buttons.

-The top SCAN key controls the upper left display which can show CALORIES or CALORIES per HOUR.

-The middle SCAN key controls the upper right display which can show TIME or MILES (KILOMETERS).

-The bottom SCAN key controls the lower display which can show SPEED, TIME, FLOORS CLIMBED, DISTANCE and PULSE.

The SCAN key can be used to select the displayed information or when the SCAN icon is shown on the display the information will automatically scroll thru the different information.
