3.Press the Start button or begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one- minute segments. One resistance setting and one target pace setting are programmed for each seg- ment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or target pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.
When you start the |
| |
program, the resis- | Current Segment | |
tance setting for the | ||
| ||
first segment will be |
| |
shown in the flash- |

| |
Segment column of |
| |
the matrix. The re- |
| |
sistance settings for |
| |
the next twelve seg- |
|
ments will be shown
in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash and a series of tones will sound. When the first segment ends, all resistance settings will move one column to the left. The resistance setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column and the resistance of the pedals will automatically change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the second segment.
The program will continue until no time remains in the Time display.
4.Adjust the intensity level of the program if desired.
To increase or decrease the intensity level of the program, press the increase and decrease buttons above the Adjust Intensity indicator. If you change the intensity level, the profile in the matrix will show the new resistance settings.
5.Use the pace guide to pace your exercise.
Throughout the pro- gram, the pace guide will prompt
you to increase or decrease your ped-
aling pace. When one of the indicators
on the left side of the pace guide lights, increase your pace; when one of the indicators on the right side lights, decrease your pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.
Important: The pace guide is intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
