the modes: scan, time, RPM, distance, calories,

and when the batteries are replaced.

after all of the workout values flash twice. A small M next to the count value

CREATING A CUSTOM PEDALING WORKOUT
Create a custom aerobic workout with your desired speed, intensity, and
duration:
1. Adjust the pedal tension (see below) to your desired resistance level.
2. Place your feet flat on the pedals.
3. Begin pedaling, forwards or backwards, at your desired speed. You can
check your speed on the monitor. Speed is displayed in RPMs (rotations/
strides per minute).
4. Keep an eye on the monitor to track your workout duration.
ADJUSTING THE PEDAL RESISTANCE/TENSION
The FlexStride Pro has sixteen levels of resistance (1–16). Level 1 is the
lowest resistance level and provides the easiest pedaling. Level 16 is the
highest resistance level and provides the most intense pedaling workout.
1. Turn the Tension Control Knob to the right or left to adjust the resistance
level. Align the arrow on the knob to the tension level you would like to
select.
2. Turn the knob to the right to increase the resistance level. Turn the knob
to the left to decrease the resistance level.
MOVING THE FLEXSTRIDE PRO
The FlexStride Pro has two carry handles to allow for easy transportation.
Grab the top carry handle to lift the FlexStride Pro and move it to a new
location.
You may also roll the FlexStride Pro to a new location:
1. Firmly grasp the carry handle in the base plate.
2. Tilt the FlexStride Pro up onto the wheels at the front of the unit.
3. Now, you can easily wheel the FlexStride Pro to its new location.
