STEP-BY-STEP CONSOLE OPERATION
Before the console can be operated, batteries must be installed. (See assembly step 12 on page 7 for installation instructions.) Follow the steps below to operate the console.
1 Turn on the power
To turn on the power, press the on/reset but- ton or simply begin exercising. When the
power is turned on, the entire display will
appear for two seconds.
The console will then be ready for use. Note: If batteries were just installed, the power will already be on.
2 Select one of the three pacer programs or the manual mode
When the power is
first turned on, the console will be in the
manual mode. To select one of the pacer
programs, repeatedly
press the program but- ton. The program indi-
cator will show which program you have
selected. The pro- grams will be selected
in the following order: the manual mode, the 6 MPH/30 RPM program, the 12 MPH/60 RPM pro- gram, and the 18 MPH/ 90 RPM program. Note: Once you select a pacer program, you can rese- lect the manual mode by repeatedly pressing the program button.
3 Begin your workout
If you selected the manual mode, one
indicator on the inner P.A.C.E.R. track will light. As you exer-
cise, this indicator will move around the
pacer program, two indicators on the P.A.C.E.R. track will light. The indicator on the inner track will show your actual pace. The indicator on the outer track will move around the track at the pro- grammed pace. As you exercise, adjust your pace so that the indicators on the inner and outer tracks remain even. As the program progresses, the target pace will change periodically; as the target pace changes, you should also adjust your pace. 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. Be sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
4 Follow your progress with the monitor modes
When the power is
turned on, the console will scan through the five modes automati- cally. A flashing mode indicator will show which mode is current- ly displayed. When the
Laps mode is displayed, an “L” will also appear. If desired, the display can be reset by pressing the on/reset button.
The recumbent bike
also features an inno- vative handgrip pulse sensor. The pulse dis- play allows you to
monitor your heart
rate during your workout. To use the pulse sensor, see page 9.
5 Turn off the power
To turn off the power, simply wait for about six minutes. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for six minutes, the power will turn off automatically.
