HOW TO OPERATE THE EXERCISE CYCLE HOW TO ADJUST THE POSITION OF THE SEAT DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE For effective exercise, the seat should be in the proper position. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in your knees when the pedals are in the farthest position. To adjust the seat, pull the seat knob and slide the Seat Carriage (11) to the desired position. Release the seat knob and slide the Seat Carriage back and forth slightly until it locks into position.
Note: The console can display speed in miles per hour, kilometers per hour or repetitions per minute. The letters “MPH,” “KMH,” or “RPM” will appear in the display to show which unit of measurement is selected. To change the unit of measurement, first hold down the select button for three seconds. Press the resistance + or – button to change the unit of measurement. Note: If you select miles per hour, distance will be displayed in miles.
In addition to the matrix, the display will show your pedaling speed, the number of Calories you have burned, the elapsed time and the distance you have pedaled. The display will also show your heart rate when the pulse sensor is used (see step 4). HOW TO USE A RESISTANCE PROGRAM 1 Turn on the power To turn on the power, press any button on the console or simply begin pedaling. Note: If batteries were just installed, the power will already be on.
Each heart rate program is designed to keep your heart rate near a preselected percentage of your maximum heart rate while you exercise. (Your maximum heart rate is estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For example, if you are 30 years old, your maximum heart rate is 190.) 4 If desired, you can set a workout goal before you begin exercising. If you set a time, distance, or calorie goal, the console will count down the goal as you exercise and sound a tone when the goal is reached.
MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING Inspect and 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 from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight. PULSE SENSOR TROUBLE-SHOOTING BATTERY REPLACEMENT • If your heart rate is not shown when the pulse sensor is used, press the resistance – button to reset the pulse sensor. • Avoid moving your hands while using the pulse sensor.
EXERCISE GUIDELINES During the first few months of your exercise program, keep your heart rate near the low end of your training zone as you exercise. After a few months of regular exercise, your heart rate can be increased until it is near the middle of your training zone as you exercise. 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.
