Introduction
Your unit is equipped with a programmable computer to help you track your progress and motivate you to reach your fitness goals.
This computer provides different programs designed to tailor to your fitness goals. Simply choose the program you like, set the time limit and begin exercising. Your monitor will then show your approximate pulse, approximate calories burned, elapsed time, speed and distance traveled.
Functions and Features
TIME: Shows your elapsed workout time in minutes and seconds. Your computer will automatically count up from 0:00 to 99:59 in one second intervals. You may also program your computer to count down from a set value by using the ▲ UP and ▼ DOWN buttons. If you continue exercising once the time has reached 0:00, the computer will begin beeping, and reset itself to the original time set, letting you know your workout is done.
SPEED: Displays your workout speed in miles per hour.
DISTANCE: Displays the accumulative distance traveled during each workout up to a maximum of 99.9 miles. The distance will be displayed in tenths of a mile.
CALORIES (approximate): Your computer will estimate the cumulative calories burned at any given time during your workout. Calorie expenditure on your computer is based on realistic expectations; however, your computer is not individually programmable for all necessary variables to accurately monitor actual calories burned.
The computer will count up in 0.1 increments. After the display value reaches 999, it will reset to “0” and begin counting from 0.1 again.
AGE: Your computer is
Note: This unit is not recommended for children.
If you do not set an age, this function will always default to age 30.
PULSE (approximate): Your computer displays your pulse rate in beats per minute during your workout.
Pulse sensors, located on the Rear Handlebar enable the user to read his/her pulse rate. By grasping the sensors and holding firmly, the display will read your pulse rate in the display window. Your pulse will continue to read as long as your hands stay on the pulse sensors.
When used properly, the heart rate pulse sensors and display monitor provide a reasonably accurate estimate of your actual heart rate. This estimate is not exact and persons with medical conditions and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring should not rely on the estimations provided.
Buttons and Definitions
MODE: This button selects functions of TIME, SPEED, DISTANCE, CALORIES, AGE, TARGET HEART RATE, and PULSE.
ENTER: This button allows users to set the chosen mode for exercising. (During the STOP mode, press the ENTER button to enter the TIME or AGE setting).
START/STOP: This button allows the user to STOP or START exercising. (By holding this button for 2 seconds the user can reset all values to “0”). The monitor will turn off automatically after approxi- mately 4.5 minutes of non use. All values will then be reset to “0”.
▲UP BUTTON: This button allows the user to increase the values of the TENSION LEVEL, TIME, and AGE.
▼DOWN BUTTON: This button allows the user to decrease the values of the TENSION LEVEL, TIME, and AGE.
STEP 2 – Next press the ▲ UP or ▼ DOWN button to scroll to the desired exercise program. Then press ENTER. The program will be displayed on the LCD window.
STEP 3 – The TIME setting mode should now be displayed. Press the ▲ UP or ▼ DOWN button to set the desired workout time.
STEP 4 – Press the START button to begin exercising. (If you want to exit the Program, press the ENTER button for 2 seconds and the display will reset. Once you begin exercising your present workout interval will be flashing. You can also increase or decrease your workout resistance by pressing the
▲UP or the ▼ DOWN button. To PAUSE your exercising program, press the STOP button, then to resume press the START button.
Programs 11 and 12:
These unique programs allow the monitor to adjust the workout resistance according to your heart rate automatically. Grasp the pulse sensors and hold with a firm grip. If the current Heart Rate is greater than the Target Heart Rate, the computer will decrease the workout resistance automatically. If your current Heart Rate is less than your Target Heart Rate it will increase your resistance. By the resistance changing, the machine will be able
to keep your heart rate at its target beats per minute.
When used properly, the heart rate pulse sensors and display monitor provide a reason- ably accurate estimate of your actual heart rate. This estimate is not exact and persons with medical conditions and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring should not rely on the estimations provided.
Important: You must keep your hands on the pulse sensors throughout the entire workout when using Programs 11 and 12.
STEP 2 Press the ▲ UP or the ▼ DOWN button to choose the desired Heart Rate Program (PROGRAM 11 or 12).
STEP 3 Press ENTER for TIME mode. Press the ▲ UP or the ▲ UP button for the desired TIME set- ting.
