HOW TO OPERATE THE RECUMBENT CYCLE

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE

The innovative console offers a manual mode and

three preset workout programs. When the manual

mode is selected, the pedaling resistance can be

changed with a touch of a button. When a preset pro-

gram is selected, the console will automatically control

the pedaling resistance to give you an effective work-

out. The console also features seven monitor modes

that provide instant exercise feedback:

Speed—When a mode arrow points to this sym-

bol, the console will show your pedaling speed,

in miles per hour.

Time—When a mode arrow points to this sym-

bol, the console will show the elapsed time.

Distance—When a mode arrow points to this

symbol, the console will show the distance you

have pedaled, in miles.

Fat Calorie—When a mode arrow points to this

symbol, the console will show the approximate

number of fat calories you have burned (see

FAT BURNING on page 13).

Calorie—When a mode arrow points to this sym-

bol, the console will show the approximate num-

ber of calories you have burned.

Scan—When a mode arrow points to this sym-

bol, the console will show the speed, time, dis-

tance, fat calorie, and calorie modes, for 5 sec-

onds each, in a continuous cycle.

Pulse—The pulse window will show your heart

rate when the pulse monitor is used.

HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE

Plug in the power supply.

Plug the power supply into the recumbent cycle

(see assembly step 11 on page 8). Next, plug the

power supply into an electrical outlet. Note:

When you plug in the power supply, press the

on/reset button, or activate the console by

turning the pedals, the resistance motor will

automatically calibrate itself. During calibra-

tion, you will hear the resistance motor turn-

ing. Wait until calibration is complete before

continuing.

Turn on the power.

Press the on/reset button or simply begin pedal-

ing to turn on the power. The entire display will

appear for a moment; the console will then be

ready for use. Note: If the power supply was just

plugged in, the power will already be on.

Select the manual mode.

When the power is

turned on, the manu-

al mode will be

selected and the

manual indicator will

light. If a preset pro-

gram has been

selected, press the

select button repeat-

edly until the manual

indicator lights.
