MANUAL MODE AND THE QUICKSTARTTM KEY

Manual mode lets you set the resistance level. As with other programs, when you complete the time limit set for the program, the automatic cool-down period begins.

You can choose Manual mode in two different ways:

•pressing the QuickStart key at the Precor banner. QuickStart bypasses the remaining selections and starts the Manual program. Default values include a time limit of 30 minutes (or the custom settings, whichever is less), 150 lbs. (68 kg.) and an age of zero. The SmartRate® display is inactive.

•pressing Enter at the Precor banner. This causes the EFX to display several Setup prompts. At the PROGRAM prompt, select MANL.

The Manual program profile initially appears as a flat line. Use the ▼▲ keys to adjust the resistance level. (See page 34 for more information.) As you proceed with your workout, a blinking column represents your position on the program.

HILL CLIMB PROGRAM

For your convenience, the resistance in the Hill Climb program is preset. Review the display label to ascertain the ascent and descent you’ll be feeling in the pedal resistance throughout the program. Anytime during the workout, you can override the resistance settings by pressing the Resistance ▼▲ keys.

INTERVAL PROGRAM

The interval program on the EFX lets you select the rest and work intervals according to your training regimen.You set the resistance level for first rest and work interval and the software repeats the intervals throughout the program. At any point during the workout, you can change the settings of the current interval by simply pressing the ▼▲ keys.The software remembers the new settings and applies it to the appropriate rest or work interval.
