Operating Instructions
Adjusting Resistance
The Weslo Spazio Bike offers 8 levels of manual resistance. To adjust the resistance, locate the resistance knob, typically found below the handlebars on the main frame.
- Turn the knob clockwise to increase the resistance, making your workout more challenging.
- Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the resistance, making your workout easier.
Using the Console
The LCD console displays various workout metrics to help you track your progress.

- SCAN: Automatically cycles through all display functions every few seconds.
- TIME: Displays the duration of your current workout in minutes and seconds.
- SPEED: Shows your current cycling speed.
- DIST (Distance): Displays the distance covered during your current workout.
- TOTAL DIST (Total Distance): Shows the accumulated total distance covered over all workouts (may reset if batteries are removed).
- CAL (Calories): Estimates the number of calories burned during your workout. This is an approximation.
- PULSE: Displays your current heart rate when using the EKG sensors.
- MODE Button: Press this button to select a specific display function (e.g., TIME, SPEED, DIST) or to activate the SCAN function.
- RESET Button: Press and hold this button to clear all current workout data (TIME, SPEED, DIST, CAL, PULSE) to zero.
Heart Rate Monitoring (Dual-Grip EKG)
The Weslo Spazio Bike is equipped with Dual-Grip EKG heart rate sensors on the handlebars.
- To measure your heart rate, firmly grasp both metal sensors on the handlebars with clean, dry hands.
- Maintain a steady grip for several seconds until your pulse reading appears on the console display under the "PULSE" function.
- For accurate readings, avoid excessive movement or talking while measuring your heart rate.
Adjusting Seat Height
The seat height is adjustable to accommodate various user heights and ensure a comfortable and effective workout posture.
- Loosen the adjustment knob or pin located on the seat post.
- Slide the seat post up or down to the desired height.
- Ensure that when your foot is at the bottom of the pedal stroke, your leg has a slight bend at the knee.
- Securely tighten the adjustment knob or re-insert the pin to lock the seat in place before use.
