The lower half of

 

the display will

 

show your pedal-

approximate num-

For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the handgrip pulse sensor for about 30 seconds. Note: If you continue to hold the hand- grip pulse sensor, the display will show your heart rate for about 30 seconds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other modes. If your heart rate is not shown, make sure that your hands are positioned as described. Avoid moving your hands excessively or squeezing the metal contacts too tightly. For optimal perfor- mance, periodically clean the metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.

Rotate the thumb tab on the right side of the fan to adjust the angle of the fan.

When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.

If the pedals are not moved for a few seconds, the time will begin to flash and the console will pause. If the pedals are not moved for a few minutes, the console will turn off and the display will be reset.
