FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features
designed to make your workouts more effective and
enjoyable.
The console features revolutionary iFit technology that
enables the console to communicate with your wireless
network. With iFit technology, you can download per-
sonalized workouts, create your own workouts, track
your workout results, and access many other features.
See www.iFit.com for complete information.
In addition, the console features a selection of onboard
workouts. Each onboard workout automatically
changes the resistance of the pedals and prompts you
to vary your pedaling speed as it guides you through
an effective workout. You can also set a time, distance,
or calorie goal.
The console also offers user-defined workouts that
allow you to create your own workouts and store them
in memory for future use.
When you use the manual mode of the console, you
can change the resistance of the pedals with the touch
of a button.
While you exercise, the console will display continuous
exercise feedback. You can also measure your heart
rate using the handgrip heart rate monitor or the chest
heart rate monitor.
You can also listen to your favorite workout music or
audio books with the console sound system while you
exercise.
To set up the console, see this page.
