T-handle and carefully step onto the pedal that is in

the lowest position. Next, step onto the other pedal.

a freewheel; the pedals will continue to move until

the flywheel stops. When the pedals are stationary,

step off the highest pedal first. Then, step off the low-

est pedal.

you can adjust

the resistance of

the pedals with

DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE

The console is designed to help you get the most

from your workouts. As you exercise, you can watch

your progress around the LED track, while the

display provides continuous exercise feedback.

The six modes of the display are described below.

Speed—This mode displays your current exercise

speed, in miles per hour.

Time—This mode displays the length of time you

have exercised. Note: If you stop exercising, the time

mode will pause until you resume.

Distance—This mode displays the total distance you

have completed, in miles.

Laps—This mode displays the number of 1/4-mile

laps you have completed around the LED track.

Calorie—This mode displays the approximate number

of Calories you have burned.

Scan—This mode displays the speed, time, distance,

laps, and calorie modes, for seconds each, in a

repeating cycle.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Before the console can be operated, two “AA” batter-

ies must be installed. If you have not installed batter-

ies, see assembly step 7 on page 8.

HOW TO OPERATE THE CONSOLE

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 exercising. When the power is turned

on, one LED indicator will light in the LED track,

and the entire display will appear for two seconds.

The console will then be ready for operation.

2. Select one of the five modes:

Scan mode—

When the power

is turned on, the

scan mode will

automatically be

selected. One

mode indicator

will show that the

scan mode is selected, and a flashing mode indica-

tor will show which mode is currently displayed.

Note: If a different mode is selected, you can

select the scan mode again by repeatedly pressing

the mode button.

Speed, time,

distance, laps,

or calorie mode—

To select one of

these modes for

continuous

display, press the

mode button repeatedly. The mode indicators will

show which mode is selected. (Make sure that the

scan mode is not selected.)

3. The LED track represents a distance of 1/4 mile. As

you exercise, the indicators around the track will

light one at a time until you have completed 1/4

mile. A new lap will then begin.

4. To reset the display, press the on/reset button.

. To turn off the power, simply wait for about four

minutes. Note: The console has an “auto-off”

feature. If the pedals are not moved and the

console buttons are not pressed for four

minutes, the power will turn off automatically

in order to conserve the batteries.
