adjust the seat, make sure that your knees will not

touch the handlebar or the console when you

pedal. To adjust the seat, first turn the seat knob coun-

terclockwise two or three turns to loosen it (if the seat knob is not loosened enough, it may scratch the frame). Next, pull the seat knob, slide the seat to the desired position, and then release the seat knob.

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

HOW TO INSTALL BATTERIES

The Console requires two “AA” batteries (not included); alkaline batteries are recommended. If batteries have not been installed, remove the four Console Screws and lift off the front of the Console. Press two batteries into the battery holder as shown in the inset drawing.

Make sure that the negative (–) ends of the batter- ies are touching the springs. Reattach the front of the Console with the four Console Screws.

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.

Distance—This mode shows the distance you have pedaled, in kilometers or miles.

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.

Scan—This mode displays the above five modes, for 5 seconds each, in a repeating cycle.
