Check for Console Power

The console is powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by pressing the POWER ON key. The console should light up, and the Message Center should display a prompt to set up a workout. If this does not occur, mount the cross-trainer and begin pedaling. The console should then light up, making it possible to program a workout. Pedal for 10 to 20 minutes at 1.5 mph (2.4 kph) or faster during a workout to charge the battery. Afterward, the pedal action during workouts keeps the battery charged. If the console still does not light, contact Customer Support Services.
