HOW TO USE THE MANUAL MODE
Begin pedaling to activate the console.
1
The exercise cycle requires no batteries or
external power source. Power is supplied by
a generator as you pedal. To activate the con-
sole, begin pedaling at a speed of about 3 miles
per hour or faster. After a few seconds, the con-
sole displays will light. A tone will then sound
and the console will be ready for use.
Select the manual mode.
2
When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected. If you
have selected a
program or the
iFIT.com mode,
reselect the manual mode by pressing the
Program Select button repeatedly until a track
appears in the matrix.
Begin pedaling and change the resistance of
3
the exercise cycle as desired.
As you pedal,
change the resis-
tance of the exer-
cise cycle by
pressing the
Resistance but-
tons. There are
ten resistance levels. Note: After the Resistance
buttons are pressed, it will take a moment for the
exercise cycle to reach the selected resistance
level.
Monitor your progress with the matrix, the
4
Training Zone bar, and the two displays.
The matrix—
When the manual
mode or the
iFIT.com mode is
selected, the
matrix will show a
track representing 1/4 mile (400 meters). As you
exercise, the indicators around the track will light
in succession until the entire track is lit. The track
will then darken and the indicators will again
begin to light in succession.
The Training Zone
bar—The Training
Zone bar will show
your pace and the
approximate inten-
sity level of your
exercise. For exam-
ple, if three or four indicators in the bar are lit, the
bar shows that your pace is ideal for fat burning.
During the program, the Training Zone bar will also
prompt you to increase or decrease your pace.
The left display—
The left display will
show your pedaling
speed, the distance
you have pedaled,
the resistance level
of the exercise
cycle, and the elapsed time. The display will
change from one number to the next every few
seconds, as shown by the indicators around the
display. Note: Each time the resistance of the
exercise cycle changes, the display will show the
resistance level. When a program is selected, the
display will show the time remaining in the pro-
gram instead of the elapsed time.
The right
display—The right
display will show
your pedaling pace
(in revolutions per
minute) and the
approximate num-
bers of fat calories and calories you have burned
(see Fat Burning on page 24). The display will
change from one number to the next every few
seconds, as shown by the indicators. The display
will also show your heart rate when you use the
handgrip pulse sensor or the chest pulse sensor.
