ton repeatedly. The indicators will show which
display is selected. Make sure there is not an
indicator below the word Scan.
As you pedal, the RPM meter on the left side of
the display will indicate your approximate pedal­
ing pace in revolutions per minute (rpm). The
lowest bar on the RPM meter indicates a pedal­
ing pace of 30 rpm. Additional bars will appear or
disappear in increments of 10 rpm as you change
your pedaling pace.
Note: The console can show speed and dis­
tance in either miles or kilometers. The letters
“mph” or “km/h” will appear in the display to show
which unit of measurement is selected. To change
the unit of measurement, hold down the On/Reset
button for several seconds until the desired unit of
measurement appears in the display.
To reset the display, press the On/Reset button.
To pause the console, stop pedaling. When the
console is paused, the time will flash in the dis­
play. To continue your workout, simply resume
pedaling.

To measure your
heart rate,
stop
pedaling and
place your
thumb on the
pulse sensor.
Do
not press too
hard, or the cir­
culation in your thumb will be restricted and
your pulse will not be detected. After a few sec­
onds, the heart-shaped indicator in the display will
flash steadily, two dashes will appear, and then
your heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on
the pulse sensor for about 15 seconds for the
most accurate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few sec­
onds. Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor
as described above.
Make sure you are applying the proper amount of
pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the pulse sensor
several times until you become familiar with it.
Remember to sit still while measuring your heart
rate.
When you are finished exercising, the con­
sole will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the
time will flash in the display and the console will
pause. If the pedals do not move for a few min­
utes, the console will turn off and the display will
be reset.
