HOW TO USE RESISTANCE AND PACE
PROGRAMS
1 |
| Press | any button on the console or begin | |
| pedaling to turn on the console. | |||
|
| |||
|
| See step 1 on page 9. | ||
|
| Select | one of the six resistance and pace | |
2 | ||||
| programs. | |||
| ||||
When the power is turned on, the man- ual mode will be selected. To select a resistance and pace program, press the
Program Select but-
ton repeatedly until a “P 1,” “P 2,” “P 3,” “P 4,” “P 5,” or “P 6” appears in the right display.
Each program is divided into several time seg- ments of different lengths. One resistance setting and one pace setting are programmed for each segment. (Note: The same resistance setting and/or pace setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.) | The resistance set- | |
ting for the first seg- |
| |
ment is shown in the | Current Segment | |
left column of the | ||
| ||
matrix. The resis- |
| |
tance settings for |
| |
the next five seg- |
| |
ments are shown in |
| |
the columns to the |
| |
right. Note: One bar |
|
in a column represents a resistance setting of level 1, two bars represent level 2 or 3, three bars represent level 4 or 5, four bars represent level 6 or 7, five bars represent level 8 or 9, and six bars represent level 10.
Press the Program Start button or begin
3 pedaling to start the program.
When the program is started, the left column of the matrix will begin to flash, and the elliptical exerciser will automatically adjust to the resis- tance setting for the first segment.
As you exercise, the Training Zone bar will help you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace

ing b), decrease your pace. When no indicator is |
|
| ||||||||
flashing, your pace matches the pace setting for |
|
| ||||||||
the current segment. | Important: The pace set- |
|
| |||||||
tings are intended only to provide motivation. |
|
| ||||||||
Your actual pace may be slower than the cur- |
|
| ||||||||
rent pace setting. Make sure to exercise at a |
|
| ||||||||
pace that is comfortable for you. |
|
| ||||||||
When the first segment of the program ends, a |
|
| ||||||||
series of tones will sound and |
|
|
|
|
| all resistance set- | ||||
tings will move one column to the left. | The resis- | |||||||||
tance setting for the second segment will then be |
|
| ||||||||
shown in the left column of the matrix and the |
|
| ||||||||
resistance of the elliptical exerciser will automati- |
|
| ||||||||
cally change to the resistance setting for the sec- |
|
| ||||||||
ond segment. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note: During the program, you can override the resistance setting, if desired, by pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when the next segment begins, the resistance will change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The pro- gram will continue until the resistance setting for the last segment is shown in the left column of the matrix and the last segment ends.
4 Monitor your progress with the two displays.
See step 4 on page 9.
5 Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 10.
