3 SETTING UP AND OPERATING THE g•force UT
Feedback Displays: These displays show you physiological information such as heart rate and the
calories you are expending, as well as physical information such as the time you have spent working out
& the number of miles you have traveled in your living room.
• [TIME/INTERVAL]—switches between time left on the program and time left in the specific program
segment in the dedicated display above the button
• [HR/DISTANCE]—switches between HR and DISTANCE in the dedicated display above the button.
Note: The heart rate function of the g-force UT is intended only for use as an exercise aide.
Various factors can affect the accuracy of your heart rate reading. The heart rate function of
the g-force UT should not be considered or used as a medical devise.
• [LEVEL/RPM]—switches between RMP and LEVEL in the dedicated LED display above the button.
• [KCAL/WATTS]—switches between KCAL and WATTS in the dedicated LED displays above the button.
Note: The WATT is a measurement of workload. It is affected by both resistance and pedal
speed. Increased resistance and increased pedal rate increases the number of WATTS expended.
This information can be used to evaluate your fitness progress over time. As your fitness
improves, your WATTS expenditure for a given program should decrease.
• Wrong Battery Message: The g-force UT uses rechargeable NIMH batteries. If the user installs alkaline
AA batteries by mistake, the power button will not turn on and a “wrong battery” message will be
displayed if the bike is pedaled.
Note: The use of alkaline batteries will void the warranty, damage the electronics and potentially be a fire
hazard.
