HOW TO INSTALL A BATTERY  
The console requires one AA battery (not included); an

console has been exposed to cold temperatures,  
allow it to warm to room temperature before you  
insert a battery. Otherwise, you may damage the  
console display or other electronic components.  
3. Begin exercising and follow your progress with  
the display.  
As you exercise, the console will provide instant  
feedback about your workout.  
Locate the battery door on the back of the console.  
Press the tab on the battery door, and remove the bat-  
tery door. Next, insert a battery into the console;  
orient the battery as shown by the diagram inside  
the console. Then, reattach the battery door.  
4. Reset the console, if desired.  
To reset the console display, press and hold the  
console button for several seconds until zeros  
appear in the display.

will turn off automatically.  
If you do not move the knee pad and do not press  
the console button for a few minutes, the console  
will turn off automatically.

EXERCISE GUIDELINES  
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.  
WARNING:  
Before beginning  
this or any exercise program, consult your  
physician. This is especially important for  
persons over age 35 or persons with pre-  
existing health problems.  
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HEART RATE  
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.  
To measure your heart  
rate, exercise for at  
least four minutes.  
Then, stop exercising  
and place two fingers on  
EXERCISE INTENSITY  
your wrist as shown.  
Take a six-second heart-  
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.  
beat 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 stretching  
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.  
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.  
Cooling Down—Finish with 5 to 10 minutes of  
stretching. Stretching increases the flexibility of your  
muscles and helps to prevent post-exercise problems.  
EXERCISE FREQUENCY  
Burning FatTo 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 exercise 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.  
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 exer-  
cise, 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.

SUGGESTED STRETCHES  
The correct form for several basic stretches is shown at the right. Move slowly as you stretch—never bounce.  
1. Toe Touch Stretch  
1
Stand with your knees bent slightly and slowly bend forward from  
your hips. Allow your back and shoulders to relax as you reach  
down toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15 counts,  
then relax. Repeat 3 times. Stretches: Hamstrings, back of knees,  
and back.  
2. Hamstring Stretch  
Sit with one leg extended. Bring the sole of the opposite foot  
toward you and rest it against the inner thigh of your extended  
leg. Reach toward your toes as far as possible. Hold for 15  
counts, then relax. Repeat 3 times for each leg. Stretches:  
Hamstrings, lower back, and groin.  
2
3. Calf/Achilles Stretch  
With one leg in front of the other, reach forward and place your  
hands against a wall. Keep your back leg straight and your back  
foot flat on the floor. Bend your front leg, lean forward and move  
your hips toward the wall. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat  
3 times for each leg. To cause further stretching of the achilles  
tendons, bend your back leg as well. Stretches: Calves, achilles  
tendons, and ankles.  
3
4
4. Quadriceps Stretch  
With one hand against a wall for balance, reach back and grasp  
one foot with your other hand. Bring your heel as close to your  
buttocks as possible. Hold for 15 counts, then relax. Repeat 3  
times for each leg. Stretches: Quadriceps and hip muscles.  
5. Inner Thigh Stretch  
Sit with the soles of your feet together and your knees outward.  
Pull your feet toward your groin area as far as possible. Hold for
