Introduction
Your unit is equipped with a programmable
computer to help you track your progress and
motivate you to reach your fitness goals.
This computer provides different programs designed
to tailor to your fitness goals. Simply choose the
program you like, set the time limit and begin
exercising. Your monitor will then show your
approximate pulse, approximate calories burned,
elapsed time, speed and distance traveled.
Functions and Features
QUICK START BUTTON: Allows you to start the
computer without selecting a program. TIME
automatically begins to count up from zero.
Use the
▲ UP and ▼ DOWN buttons to adjust
the resistance.
TIME: Shows your elapsed workout time in minutes
and seconds. Your computer will automatically
count up from 0:00 to 99:59 in one second intervals.
You may also program your computer to count
down from a set value by using the
▲ UP and
▼ DOWN buttons. If you continue exercising once
the time has reached 0:00, the computer will
begin beeping, and reset itself to the original
time set, letting you know your workout is done.
SPEED: Displays your workout speed in miles
per hour.
DISTANCE: Displays the accumulative distance
traveled during each workout up to a maximum
of 99.9 miles. The distance will be displayed in
tenths of a mile.
CALORIES (approximate): Your computer will
estimate the cumulative calories burned at any
given time during your workout. Calorie expenditure
on your computer is based on realistic expectations;
however, your computer is not individually program-
mable for all necessary variables to accurately
monitor actual calories burned.
The computer will count up in 0.1 increments. After
the display value reaches 999, it will reset to “0” and
begin counting from 0.1 again.
AGE: Your computer is age-programmable from
10 to 99 years when you choose all programs
except Program 8. When using Program 8 you will
set Target Heart Rate instead of Age.
Note: This unit is not recommended for children.
If you do not set an age, this function will always
default to age 30.
PULSE (approximate): Your computer displays your
pulse rate in beats per minute during your workout.
Pulse sensors, located on the Rear Handlebars
enable the user to read his/her pulse rate. By
grasping the sensors and holding firmly, the display
will read your pulse rate in the display window. Your
pulse will continue to read as long as your hands
stay on the pulse sensors.
When used properly, the heart rate pulse
sensors and display monitor provide a
reasonably accurate estimate of your actual
heart rate. This estimate is not exact and
persons with medical conditions and/or a
specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring
should not rely on the estimations provided.
Buttons and Definitions
ENTER: This button allows users to select the
Program, Time, Distance, Age, Calories, (Target Heart
Rate Program 8 only).
START: This button allows the user to STOP or START
exercising. (By holding this button for two seconds
the user can reset all values to “0”). The computer
will turn off automatically after approximately 4.5
minutes of non use. All values will then be reset to “0”.
