ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATION
EXERCISING ON THE CARDIO FIT
Sit on the seat, place your feet on the pedals and hold the handlebar. To add variety to your exercise, you can
holdthe top, sides or bottom of the handlebar, place your hands close together or far apart, or hold the handlebar
with an overhand or underhand grip.
To begin exercising, pull the handlebar towards your waist while pushing the pedals away with your legs. Retum
to the starting position. This completes one repetition. Repeat, moving with a smooth, continuous motion. For the
best results, move through the full range of motion, maintain a steady pace, and keep your back straight.
LOWER BODY EXERCISE
To focus on the muscles of the lower body, rest your hands
on the indicated bar as you exercise.
To focus on the calf muscles, pointyour toes as you push
the pedals away. As you retum to the starting position,raise
your toes and rotate your heels downward. CAUTION: To
avoid Injury, keep you feet firmly on the pedals to
prevent them from slipping.
UPPER BODY EXERCISE
To focus on the muscles of the upper body, rest your feet on
the foot pegs rather than the pedals as you exercise.
ABDOMINAL EXERCISE
To exercise your abdominal muscles, keep your arms straight and bend back at the waist as you exercise.

change the resistance, turn the resistance adjustment collar
on the Resistance Cylinder (9). The arrow on the Resistance
Cylinder will show which resistance level you have selected.

sunlight or the LCD display may be damaged. The monitorcan be cleaned using a soft, dry cloth. Do not allow
liquidto come in contact with the monitor. Remove the batteries when storing the CARDIO FIT.
REPLACING THE BA'n'ERIES
If the display of the Monitor (1) becomes dim, the two L1154
watch batteries should be replaced. Remove the #8 x 1/2"
Screw (16) from the back of the Monitor. Remove the two
screws from the back cover of the Monitor end remove the
back cover. Push the two old batteries out of the clips, and
insert .twonew batteries.
Reettach the back cover and reattach the Monitor (1) to the
Frame (6). Make sure that the wire on the Monitor is plugged
into the sensor wire. Insert any excess wire into the Frame.
Make sure not to pinch the wire between the Frame and the
Monitor.
ADJUSTING THE MAGNET AND REED SWITCH
If the monitor does notfunction properly, the Magnet (27) and
Reed Switch (15) should be checked. Pivot the Pedal Frame
(7) until the Magnet is aligned with the Reed Switch. Loosen
the #8 x 3/4" Screw (18) and slide the Reed Switch toward
the Magnet untilthere is a 1/8" gap between the Magnet and
the Reed Switch. Retightan the Screw.
LUBRICATING THE CARDIO FIT

CONDITIONING GUIDELINES
The following guidelines will help you to plan your
examise program. Remember that proper nutrition and
adequate rest are essential for successful results.
WARNING: Before beginning this or any exercise
program, consult your physician. This is especially
Important for persons over the age of 35 or
persons with pre-exlsUng health problems.
EXERCISEINTENSITY
To maximize the benefits of exercising, it is important
to exercise with the proper intensity. The proper
intensity level can be found by using your heart rate as
a guide. For effective aerobic exercise, your heart rate
should be maintained at a level between 70% and 85%
of your maximum heart rate as you exercise. This is
known as your training zone.
You can find your training zone in the table below.
Training zones are listed for both unconditioned and
conditioned persons according to age.
UNCONDITIONED CONDITIONED
TRAINING ZONE TRAINING ZONE
AGE (BEATS/MIN) (BEATS/MIN)
20 138-167 133-162
25 136-166 132-160
30 136-164 130-158
35 134-162 129-156
40 132-161 127-155
45 131-159 125-153
50 129-156 124.150
55 127-155 122-149
60 126.153 121-147
65 126.151 119-145
70 123-150 116.144
75 122-147 117-142
80 120-146 115-140
85 116-144 114.139
During the first few months of your exercise program,
keep your heart rate near the low end ofyour training
zone as you exercise. After a few months, your heart
rate can be increased gradually until it is near the mid-
dle of your training zone as you exercise.
To measure
your heart rate,
stop exercising
and place two
fingers on your
wrist. 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. (A six-second count is used because your
heart rate will drop rapidly when you stop exercising.)
Adjust the intensity of your exercise untilyour heart
rate is at the proper level.
WORKOUT GUIDELINES
Each workout should consist of three basic pads: a
warm-up, 20 to 30 minutes of training zone exercise,
and a cool-down. Warming up prepares the bodyfor
exercise by increasing circulation, delivering more oxy-
gen to the muscles and raising the body temperature.
Begin each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of stretching
and light exercise to warm up. Then, increase the
intensity of your exercise to raise your heart rate to
your training zone for 20 to 30 minutes. Breathe regu-
larly and deeply as you exercise-never hold your
breath. Finish each workout with 5 to 10 minutes of
stretching to cool down. This will increase the flexibility
of the muscles, and reduce soreness and other post-
exercise problems.
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. The key to success is to make
exercise a regular and enjoyable part of your everyday
life.
