DIAGRAM OF THE CONSOLE

The console is designed to help you get the most from your workouts. As you exercise, you can watch your progress around the LED ÒtrackÓ in the center of the console. In addition, the upper LCD display will show how many calories you have burned, the number of laps you have completed, your current speed, the elapsed time, and the distance you have pedaled. The lower LCD display will show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used. The modes of the displays are described below.

CalorieÑThis mode displays the approximate number of calories you have burned.
LapsÑThis mode displays the total number of 1/4-mile laps you have completed.
SpeedÑThis mode displays your pedaling speed, in kilometres per hour.
TimeÑThis mode displays the length of time you have exercised.
DistanceÑThis mode displays the total number of kilometers you have pedaled during your workout.
PulseÑThis mode displays your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used.

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE

1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or simply begin pedaling. When the power is turned on, the entire display will appear for two seconds. The console will then be ready for use.

2. When the power is turned on, the upper LCD display will begin displaying the Calories, Laps, Speed, Time, and Distance modes. Each mode will be displayed for five seconds in a repeating cycle. Flashing arrows in the display will show which mode is currently displayed.

3. The LED track represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As you exercise, the indicators around the track will light one at a time until you have completed 1/4 mile. A new lap will then begin.

4. To measure your pulse, stop pedaling and place your thumb on the pulse sensor as shown. The pulse sensor is pressure-activated-edÑfully press down the pulse sensor. Do not press too hard, or the circulation in your thumb will be restricted, and your pulse will not be detected. Next, slightly raise your thumb until the heart-shaped indicator in the lower LCD display flashes steadily. Hold your thumb at this level. After 5 to 10 seconds, three dashes will appear in the display and your pulse will be shown. Hold your thumb on the sensor for another 15 seconds for the most accurate reading. Try the sensor several times until you become familiar with it. If the displayed pulse appears to be too high or too low, or if your pulse is not displayed, lift your thumb off the sensor and allow the display to reset. Press down again on the sensor as described above.
   WARNING : The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

5. To reset the upper LCD display, press the on/reset button.

6. To turn off the power, simply wait for about six minutes. Note: The console has an Òauto-offÓ feature. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for six minutes, the power will turn off automatically in order to conserve the batteries.

HOW TO SELECT KILOMETERS AND MILES
The console can display distance and speed in either kilometers or miles. The letters ÒKPHÓ or ÒMPHÓ will appear in the upper LCD display to show which unit of measurement is selected.

To change the unit of measurement, first look underneath the console and locate the square hole. Look inside the square hole and locate the small switch on the printed circuit board. Move the switch to the opposite side to change the unit of measurement.

After changing the unit of measurement, remove one of the batteries from the console for about five seconds and then reinsert it. This will reset the console.

MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Tighten all parts of the exercise cycle regularly. The exercise cycle can be cleaned with a soft, damp cloth. To prevent damage to the console, keep liquids away and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

CRANK ADJUSTMENT
If the arms of the Crank (8) become loose, they should be tightened in order to prevent excessive wear.
Loosen the Hex Crank Nuts (14) 14 on the left arm of 8 the Crank. Place the tip of a stan dard screwdriver in one of the slots in the slotted crank nut. Tap the screwdriver with a hammer to turn the slotted crank nut counterclockwise until the arms are no longer loose. Do not overtighten the slotted crank nut. When the slotted crank nut is properly tightened, tighten the Hex Crank Nuts.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch may need to be adjusted.
To adjust the reed switch, you must first remove the Left Side Shield (20).

Using an adjustable wrench, turn the Left Pedal (39) clockwise and remove it. Next, remove the indicated M4 x 12mm Screws (72) and M4 x 38mm Self-tapping Screws (13). Grasp both Side Shields and gently pull them apart. Turn the left arm of the Crank (8) to the position shown, and then carefully slide the Left Side Shield forward and remove it.

With the left side shield removed, locate the Reed Switch (42) (see the drawing below). Turn the Crank (8) until the Magnet (61) is aligned with the Reed Switch. Loosen but do not remove the M4 x 16mm Screw (43). Slide the Reed Switch slightly closer to or away from the Magnet. Retighten the Screw. Turn the Crank for a moment. Repeat until the console displays correct feedback. When the Reed Switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the left side shield and the left pedal.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT
If the console does not function properly, the batteries should be replaced. See assembly step 3 on page 6.

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES

WARNING : Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physician. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35 or individuals with pre-existing health problems.
The pulse sensor is not a medical device. Various factors, including the user’s movement, may affect the accuracy of heart rate readings. The pulse sensor is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general.

The following guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For more information about exercise, consult your physician or obtain a reputable book.

EXERCISE INTENSITY

Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the desired results is to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as a guide. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat-burning and aerobic exercise.
To find the proper heart rate for you, first find your age at the left side of the chart (ages are rounded off to the nearest ten years). Next, find the three numbers to the right of your age.
The three numbers define your training zone.Ó The lowest two numbers are recommended mended heart rates for fat burning; the highest number is the recommended heart rate for aerobic exercise.

Fat Burning
To burn fat effectively, you must exercise at a relatively low-intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses easily accessible carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone.
For maximum fat burning, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the middle of your training zone.

Aerobic Exercise
If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, your exercise must be Òaerobic.Ó Aerobic exercise is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. This increases the demand on the heart to pump blood to the muscles, and on the lungs to oxygenate the blood. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

HOW TO MEASURE YOU HEART RATE
To measure your heart rate, first exercise for at least four minutes. Then, stop pedaling and measure your heart rate using the pulse sensor on the console.

WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should include the following three important parts:
A Warm-UpÑBegin each workout with five to ten minutes of stretching and light exercise to warm up. A proper warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate and circulation in preparation for exercise.
Training Zone ExerciseÑAfter warming up, increase the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is in your training zone for 20 to 30 minutes. Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise hold your breath.
A Cool-downÑFinish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching. This will increase your flexibility and will help to prevent post-exercise problems.

EXERCISE FREQUENCY
To maintain or improve your condition, plan three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week if desired. Remember, the key to success is make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES

The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretchÑnever bounce.

1. Toe Touch Stretch
   Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees and back.

Bend your front leg, lean forward, and move your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the Achilles tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, Achilles tendons and ankles.

4. Quadriceps Stretch
   With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.
