Make sure to move the seat back and forth slightly until it locks in position. Then, turn the seat knob clockwise to tighten it.

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE

The innovative console offers a

manual mode and three pacer programs. The pacer programs are designed to help you reach

specific exer-

cise goals by pacing your exercise. You can choose

from a stamina- building Interval

program, an Aerobic pro-

gram, and a special Fat

Burn program. As you exercise, seven monitor modes will provide continuous exercise feedback. The moni- tor modes are described below:

Speed—This mode shows your pedaling pace, in kilometers or miles per hour (see HOW TO SELECT KILOMETERS OR MILES on page 11).

Time—If you select the manual mode, this mode will show the elapsed time. If you select one of the three pacer programs, this mode will count down the time remaining in the program.

Lap—This mode shows the number of laps you have completed. One lap equals 0.25 kilometers or miles.

Calorie—This mode shows the approximate number of calories you have burned.
