A buzzer will sound when the train- ing time you have set is finished. If you wish, you can continue training even after this buzzer sounds.

Whenever you want to stop train- ing, before or after the buzzer

sounds, push the AD button once.

The cooCOOL symbol appears on the screen and the pedal resistance drops to the minimum of 0.5 kg·m. This is the cooling down function, which lasts for a maximum of 5 min- utes.

At this stage review your workout data such as time and calorie con- sumption.
