    The console has an auto-off feature. If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for a few minutes, the console will turn off automatically.

    IMPORTANT: When you are finished exercis- ing, make sure to disconnect your smart device and/or heart rate monitor from the console (see step 6 above and HOW TO CONNECT YOUR HEART RATE MONITOR TO THE CONSOLE on at the right). If you do not do this, the console may not turn off and the batteries will drain more quickly.

    How To Connect Your Heart Rate Monitor

    To The Console

    The console is compatible with all Bluetooth Smart heart rate monitors. To connect your Bluetooth Smart heart rate monitor to the console, press the iFIT button on the console; the console pairing number will appear in the dis- play. When your heart rate monitor is connected, the Bluetooth icon will appear in the display. Note: If there is more than one compatible heart rate monitor near the console, the console will connect to the heart rate monitor with the strongest signal. To disconnect your heart rate monitor from the console, press and hold the iFIT button on the console. Note: All Bluetooth connections between the console and other devices (including any tablets, heart rate monitors, and so forth) will be disconnected.

    The Optional Heart Rate Monitor

    Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, the key to achieving the best results is to maintain the proper heart rate during your workouts. The optional heart rate monitor will enable you to continuously monitor your heart rate while you exercise, helping you to reach your personal fitness goals. To purchase an optional heart rate monitor, please see the front cover of this manual. Note: The console is compatible with all Bluetooth Smart heart rate monitors.

    How To Maintain The Exercise Bike

    Regular maintenance is important for optimal performance and to reduce wear. Inspect and properly tighten all parts each time the exercise bike is used. Replace any worn parts immediately. Use only manufacturer-supplied parts. To clean the exercise bike, use a damp cloth and a small amount of mild detergent. IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the console, keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight.

    How To Maintain The Pedals

    Tighten the pedals weekly. Tighten the right pedal clockwise, and tighten the left pedal counterclockwise.

    How To Troubleshoot The Console

    If the console display becomes dim, replace the batteries (see assembly step 14 on page 13); most console problems are the result of low batteries. If the exercise bike will not be used for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the console. If the message CH0 or CH1 appears in the display when you press the increase and decrease buttons, you must recalibrate the resistance system. First, see assembly step 14 on page 13 and remove the batteries from the console. Next, press and hold any button on the console for 20 seconds. Then, release the button and reinsert the batteries into the console; the exercise bike will adjust to the lowest resistance level.

    Tablet Holder Troubleshooting

    If the tablet holder does not stay in place, rotate the tablet holder backward and tighten the locknut (A) inside the bracket mount until the tablet holder stays in place when it is rotated to the desired position.

    How To Adjust The Reed Switch

    If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. Follow the steps below to adjust the reed switch. Locate the Reed Switch (57) on the left side of the exercise bike. Slightly loosen the two M4 x 16mm Screws (87). Next, turn the Left Crank Arm (19) until a Magnet (62) is aligned with the Reed Switch (57). Slide the Reed Switch slightly toward or away from the Magnet. Then, retighten the M4 x 16mm Screws (87). Turn the Left Crank Arm (19) for a moment. Repeat the procedure above, if necessary, until the console displays correct feedback.

    How To Adjust The Drive Belt

    If you feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the drive belt may need to be adjusted. To adjust the drive belt, locate the Idler Cover (36). Remove the M4 x 16mm Flange Screw (100) and the Idler Cover. Then, tighten the M10 x 50mm Screw (65) until the Drive Belt (not shown) is tight. When the Drive Belt (not shown) is tight, reattach the Idler Cover (36). 100 65 36

    23 These guidelines will help you to plan your exercise program. For detailed exercise information, obtain a reputable book or consult your physician. Remember, proper nutrition and adequate rest are essential for successful results.

    Exercise Intensity

    Whether your goal is to burn fat or to strengthen your cardiovascular system, exercising at the proper inten- sity is the key to achieving results. You can use your heart rate as a guide to find the proper intensity level. The chart below shows recommended heart rates for fat burning and aerobic exercise. To find the proper intensity level, find your age at the bottom of the chart (ages are rounded off to the near- est ten years). The three numbers listed above your age define your “training zone.” The lowest number is the heart rate for fat burning, the middle number is the heart rate for maximum fat burning, and the highest number is the heart rate for aerobic exercise. Burning Fat—To burn fat effectively, you must exer- cise at a low intensity level for a sustained period of time. During the first few minutes of exercise, your body uses carbohydrate calories for energy. Only after the first few minutes of exercise does your body begin to use stored fat calories for energy. If your goal is to burn fat, adjust the intensity of your exer- cise until your heart rate is near the lowest number in your training zone. For maximum fat burning, exercise with your heart rate near the middle number in your training zone. Aerobic Exercise—If your goal is to strengthen your cardiovascular system, you must perform aerobic exercise, which is activity that requires large amounts of oxygen for prolonged periods of time. For aerobic exercise, adjust the intensity of your exercise until your heart rate is near the highest number in your training zone.

    How To Measure Your Heart Rate

    To measure your heart rate, exercise for at least four minutes. Then, stop exercising and place two fingers on your wrist as shown. Take a six- second heartbeat count, and multiply the result by 10 to find your heart rate. For example, if your six-second heartbeat count is 14, your heart rate is 140 beats per minute.

    Workout Guidelines

    Warming Up—Start with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch- ing and light exercise. A warm-up increases your body temperature, heart rate, and circulation in preparation for exercise. Training Zone Exercise—Exercise for 20 to 30 min- utes with your heart rate in your training zone. (During the first few weeks of your exercise program, do not keep your heart rate in your training zone for longer than 20 minutes.) Breathe regularly and deeply as you exercise; never hold your breath. Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of stretch- ing. Stretching increases the flexibility of your muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.

    Exercise Frequency

    To maintain or improve your condition, complete three workouts each week, with at least one day of rest between workouts. After a few months of regular exercise, you may complete up to five workouts each week, if desired. Remember, the key to success is to make exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday life. WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise program, consult your physi- cian. This is especially important for persons over age 35 or persons with pre-existing health problems.
