Basic Information and Functions:
Display:
The dot matrix display will show the Resistance prole. If you press the Start key during a pro-
gram, the display will switch to a Lap track, which is ¼ mile in length.
Pressing the Enter key will switch the data displayed in the Message Window. Initially, the Mes-
sage Window shows the program name. Each time the Enter key is pressed the data will change
to the following: Speed, Watts, Laps, Current Level/Max Level, Scan, and repeat sequence. To
the left of the dot matrix is a number that indicates your Resistance level.
Data Displayed:
Calories show an accumulation of calories burned (Kcal). This is an estimate that takes into
account the type of exercise, the resistance level, the pace and body weight.
Time shows elapsed time if counting up from zero, or time remaining if counting down.
Pulse indicates your heart rate if you are grasping the hand pulse sensors.
RPM displays your pedaling speed in revolutions per minute.
Speed shows your speed in miles per hour or kilometers per hour if ‘Km’ is displayed.
Distance displays accumulated mileage.
The tness bike has a built in Heart Rate Monitoring System. Simply grasping the hand pulse
sensors on the stationary handlebars or by wearing the chest strap will start the heart icon
blinking (this may take a few seconds). The Pulse Display Window will display your heart rate,
or pulse, in beats per minute.
Pause/Reset Functions:
The Stop/Reset key actually has several functions. Pressing the Stop/Reset key once during a
program will pause the program for ve minutes. If you need to get a drink, answer the phone or
any of the many things that could interrupt your workout, this is a great feature. To resume your
workout after pausing just press the Start key. If the Stop/Reset key is pressed twice during a
workout, the program will end and a summary of your workout will be displayed. If the Stop/Reset
key is held down for three seconds, the console will perform a complete reset.

There is an Audio Input Jack on the front of the console, and built-in speakers. You may plug any
low-level audio source signal into this port. Audio sources include: MP3 player, iPod, portable
radio, CD player or even a TV or computer.
