Use theResistance increase and decrease buttons tochange the maximum heart rate setting, if desired.Note: If you change the maximum target heart ratesetting, the intensity level of the entire workout willchange.

If you select the second heart rate workout, thetarget heart rate setting for the workout will appearin the display. Use the Resistance increase anddecrease buttons to change the target heart ratesetting, if desired. Note: The same target heartrate setting will be used for the entire workout.

4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-sor continuously during a heart rate workout; how-ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensorfrequently for the workout to operate properly.Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,keep your hands on the metal contacts for atleast 15 seconds.

5. Begin pedaling to start the workout.

First heart rate control workout—This workout isdivided into 30 one-minute segments. One targetheart rate setting is programmed for each seg-ment. Note: The same target heart rate settingmay be programmed for consecutive segments.

Second heart rate workout—The same targetheart rate is programmed for all segments of thisworkout.

Both heart rate workouts—As you pedal, theconsole will regularly compare your heart rate tothe target heart rate setting. If your heart rate istoo far below or above the target heart rate, theresistance of the pedals will automatically increaseor decrease to bring your heart rate closer to thetarget heart rate.

You will also beprompted to pedal at asteady pace. When theword “faster” appearsin the display, increaseyour pace. When theword “slower” appears, decrease your pace. Whenthe center of the target flashes, maintain your cur-rent pace.

IMPORTANT: Make sure to pedal at a pace thatis comfortable for you. Note: You can manuallyoverride the resistance settings; however, if youchange the resistance setting, you might not main-tain the target heart rate. Also, when the consolecompares your heart rate to the target heart ratesetting, the resistance of the pedals may automati-cally increase or decrease to bring your heart ratecloser to the target heart rate setting.

CONSOLE TROUBLESHOOTING

If the console does not function properly, the batteriesshould be replaced. To replace the batteries, seeassembly step 8 on page 8.

HANDGRIP PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

If the handgrip pulse sensor does not function proper-ly, make sure that your hands are positioned asdescribed in step 5 on page 12. Be careful not tomove your hands excessively or to squeeze the metalcontacts too tightly. For optimal performance, cleanthe metal contacts using a soft cloth; never use alco-hol, abrasives, or chemicals.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, thereed switch should be adjusted. First, remove all ofthe screws from both side shields; there are threesizes of screws in the side shields—note whichsize of screw you remove from each hole. Then,carefully remove the side shields.

Next, locate the Reed Switch (47). Turn the Flywheel(48) until the Magnet (53) is aligned with the ReedSwitch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indicated

M4 x 12mm Screw (85). Slide the Reed Switch slightlycloser to or away from the Magnet, and then retightenthe Screw. Rock the Flywheel forward and back justenough that the Magnet passes the Reed Switchrepeatedly. Repeat until the console displays correctfeedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted,reattach the side shields. Note: If you have questionsas to which screw should be in which hole, seeEXPLODED DRAWING A on page 18 and the PARTLIST on page 17.

HOW TO ADJUST THE BELT

If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,even when the resistance of the pedals is at the high-est setting, the Belt (37) may need to be adjusted.First, remove all of the screws from both side shields;there are three sizes of screws in the sideshields—note which size of screw you removefrom each hole.

Next, loosen the M8 x 19mm Flat Head Bolt (61) andturn the Adjustment Screw (62) until the Belt (37) istight. Once the Belt is tight, tighten the Flat HeadScrew. Then, reattach the side shields.

These guidelines will help you to plan your exerciseprogram. For detailed exercise information, obtain areputable book or consult your physician. Remember,proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential forsuccessful results.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten-sity is the key to achieving results. You can use yourheart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level.The chart below shows recommended heart rates forfat burning and aerobic exercise.

To find the proper intensity level, find your age at thebottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near-est ten years). The three numbers listed above yourage define your “training zone.” The lowest number isthe heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is theheart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highestnumber is the heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer-cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period oftime. During the first few minutes of exercise, yourbody uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only afterthe first few minutes of exercise does your body beginto use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is toburn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until yourheart rate is near the lowest number in your trainingzone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with yourheart rate near the middle number in your trainingzone.

Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen yourcardiovascular system, you must perform aerobicexercise, which is activity that requires large amountsof oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobicexercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise untilyour heart rate is near the highest number in yourtraining zone.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES

Warming up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretchingand light exercise. A warm-up increases your bodytemperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparationfor exercise.

Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min-utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (Duringthe first few weeks of your exercise program, do notkeep your heart rate in your training zone for longerthan 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as youexercise–never hold your breath.

Cooling down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes ofstretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of yourmuscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY

To maintain or improve your condition, complete threeworkouts each week, with at least one day of restbetween workouts. After a few months of regular exer-cise, you may complete up to five workouts eachweek, if desired. Remember, the key to success is tomake exercise a regular and enjoyable part of youreveryday life.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Before beginningthis or any exercise program, consult yourphysician. This is especially important forpersons over the age of 35 or persons withpre-existing health problems.

The pulse sensor is not a medical device.Various factors may affect the accuracy ofheart rate readings. The pulse sensor isintended only as an exercise aid in determin-ing heart rate trends in general.
