• After the WAWARM symbol goes out, the pedal resistance (torque kg·m) increases or decreases according to the pedal cadence. Dur- ing exercise the pedal resistance (torque: kg·m) changes in 0.1 kg·m units to maintain the set value for wattage.

Note: For calculation purposes, pedal cadence under 40 rpm is regarded as 40 rpm, and pedal cadence over 100 rpm is regarded as 100 rpm.

Remark 1: In this program the target wattage can be revised dur-

The pitch sound to adjust your cadence at 60 rpm (rings every half second) is set "OFF".

• Press the MO button to change the blinking numeric.

You can increase or decrease the blinking numeric by pressing the

+buttons.

• Press the AD button to start the program after you set the condi- tions.

The LCD changes as in the drawing.

The initial workload (pedal torque) is indicated in dot(s) in the graphic part of the LCD. One dot along the horizontal axis indicates 30 seconds, and one along the vertical axis 0.5 kg·m. At every 30 seconds, the row of dots will increase by one towards the right of the graphic display, with the last dots blinking.

During the 3 minute warm up, after starting exercise, the pedal re- sistance gradually increases and the WARMWA symbol is shown.

NOTE: During the warm up, the pedal resistance is increased so as to reach the set wattage in 3 minutes provided you pedal at 50 rpm. If you pedal faster than 50 rpm and reach the set wattage earlier than 3 minutes, the warm up is finished at that moment.

Remark: If you first press the OD button, and holding it down

press the AD

button to start the program, instead of just

pressing the AD

button, you can skip the warm up phase and

start the exercise at the preset wattage from the scratch.

Remark 2: The graphic part can display the torque pattern for 16 minutes at maximum, except in Hill Profile program. If you set a longer exercise time, the graphic part becomes full at 16 min- utes, then at every additional 30 seconds the torque pattern of the latest 16 minutes will be updated on the screen.

The buzzer sounds at the specified time.

• If you press the A button, the program enters a 5 minute cool down phase and the COOLCO symbol lights up. Then the pedal resis- tance becomes the minimum 0.5 kg·m.

Note: Even if the buzzer sounds, the program does not enter the cool down phase unless you press the AD button.

The LCD still displays the contents during exercise.

Review your workout data such as time and calorie consumption displayed, using the MO button.

• If 5 minutes of cool down have elapsed or if you press the AD button, the buzzer sounds and the program ends. The LCD returns to the initial screen.

If you are completely finishing the exercise, be sure to switch off the unit.
