HOW TO USE THE EXERCISE CYCLE
HOW TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE SEAT
For effective exercise, the seat should be at the proper
height. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in
your knees when the pedals are in the lowest position.
To adjust the seat, first turn the seat knob counter-
clockwise several
turns. Next, pull the
knob, slide the seat
post up or down as
desired, and then
release the knob.
Move the seat post
up or down slightly
to make sure that it
locks into place.
Then, turn the knob
clockwise to tighten it.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDAL STRAPS
To adjust the pedal
straps, first pull the
outer ends of the
straps off the tabs on
the pedals. Adjust the
positions of the straps
and press the straps
back onto the tabs.
HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDALING RESISTANCE
To adjust the resis-
tance of the pedals
as you exercise, turn
the resistance knob
on the console. Turn
the knob clockwise to
increase the resis-
tance or counter-
clockwise to
decrease the resistance.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Before the console can be operated, two “AA” batteries
must be installed (see assembly step 6 on page 6).
HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE
Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the
face of the console, remove it.
1. To turn on the power, press the on/reset button or
simply begin pedaling. When the power is turned
on, the displays and indicators will light for two
seconds. The console will then be ready for use.
2. As you exercise, watch your progress with the train-
ing zone display and the two LCD displays.
The training zone display—As you exercise, the
training zone display will show the approximate
intensity level of your exercise. For example, if the
fourth indicator in the display is lit (refer to the
drawing above), the display shows that your intensi-
ty level is ideal for fat burning.
The left LCD display—As you exercise, the left dis-
play will show the elapsed time and the distance
you have pedaled. The display will change from
one number to the other every seven seconds.
Arrows in the display will indicate which number is
currently shown.
The right LCD display—As you exercise, the right
display will show the approximate numbers of calo-
ries and fat calories you have burned (see BURN-
ING FAT on page 8) and your current speed. The
display will change from one number to the next
every seven seconds. Arrows in the display will indi-
cate which number is currently shown.
3. To reset the LCD displays, press the on/reset button.
4. To turn off the power, simply wait for about four
minutes. The console has an “auto-off” feature.
If the pedals are not moved and the console
button is not pressed for four minutes, the
power will turn off automatically in order to
conserve the batteries.
