The DISTANCE display field shows the distance from start to finish of workout. To set a distance goal for the workout, push MODE until the DISTANCE field blinks. Use the arrow keys to adjust the distance in increments of 0.50 km (or miles). During the workout, the display shows the remaining distance. When it reaches zero, the console will sound an alert.
The maximum distance value is 99.99.
The default distance unit is kilometers (K). To switch units between kilometers and miles before a workout, push the Up and Down arrow keys together and hold 3 seconds. Press any key to save.

HEART RATE (PULSE)
The PULSE display shows the heart rate in beats per minute (BPM) from a telemetric heart rate sensor. Push MODE to activate the Heart Rate. This display value will be blank if a heart rate signal is not detected. The PULSE range is 40 - 240 BPM.
warning Consult a physician before you start an exercise program. Stop exercising if you feel pain or tightness in your chest, become short of breath, or feel faint. Contact your doctor before you use the machine again. Use the values calculated or measured by the machine's computer for reference purposes only. The heart rate displayed on the console is an approximation and should be used for reference only.

Remote Heart Rate Monitor

Monitoring your Heart Rate is one of the best procedures to control the intensity of your exercise. The Console can read telemetry HR signals from a Heart Rate Chest Strap Transmitter that operates in the 4.5kHz - 5.5kHz range.
Note: The heart rate chest strap must be an uncoded heart rate strap from Polar Electro or an uncoded POLAR® ible model. (Coded POLAR® heart rate straps such as POLAR® OwnCode® chest straps will not work with this equipment.)
warning If you have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, consult your doctor before using a wireless chest strap or other telemetric heart rate monitor.

Heart Rate Calculations
Your maximum heart rate usually decreases from 220 Beats Per Minute (BPM) in childhood to approximately 160 BPM by age 60. This fall in heart rate is usually linear, decreasing by approximately one BPM for each year. There is no indication that training influences the decrease in maximum heart rate. Individuals of the same age could have different maximum heart rates. It is more accurate to find this value by completing a stress test than by using an age related formula.
Your at-rest heart rate is influenced by endurance training. The typical adult has an at-rest heart rate of approximately 72 BPM, where as highly trained runners may have readings of 40 BPM or lower.
The Heart Rate table is an estimate of what Heart Rate Zone (HRZ) is effective to burn fat and improve your cardiovascular system. Physical conditions vary, therefore your individual HRZ could be several beats higher or lower than what is shown.
The most efficient procedure to burn fat during exercise is to start at a slow pace and gradually increase your intensity until your heart rate reaches between 60 – 85% of your maximum heart rate. Continue at that pace, keeping your heart rate in that target zone for over 20 minutes. The longer you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will burn.
The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your optimal target rate may be higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.
Note: As with all exercises and fitness regimens, always use your best judgment when you increase your exercise time or intensity.
FAT-BURNING TARGET HEART RATE

Shoe Clips (Cleats)

Foot pedals that are equipped for cycling shoes with cleats provide secure footing on the exercise bike. The shoe cleats provided fit both the right and left Pedals.
warning Prior to use, make sure you understand the operation of the engagement/release mechanism for the pedals and cleats (shoes).
Keep cleats and bindings clear of dirt and debris to ensure engagement and release.
Check the cleats periodically for wear. When the cleats are worn, replace them. Replace the cleat when it becomes difficult to release, or starts to release with much less effort than when it was in new condition.
Pedals and cleats are SPD Compatible. They fit any shoe size with the correct cleat mounts: shoes with "Standard 2-Hole MTB SPD Cleat Mounts" (MTB SPD = Mountain Bike Shimano Pedaling Dynamics).

OPERATIONS

What to Wear
