HOW TO USE THE INCLINE PROGRAMS AND THE RESISTANCE PROGRAMS
Turn on the power
Make sure that the power cord is properly plugged in (see page 6). To turn on the power, press the START/PAUSE button. The console will sound a tone and various displays and indicators will light. Note: If you have moved the pedals, the power will already be on.
Select one of the eight incline or resistance programs
Each time the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected, as shown by the MANUAL CONTROL indicator. To select one of the incline or resistance programs, press the PROGRAM
SELECT button repeatedly until one of the four incline program indicators or one of the four resis- tance program indicators lights. Note: When you press the PROGRAM SELECT button, the incline will automatically change to its lowest position.
As you select each program, the LED matrix will show the first eight settings of the program you have selected (see step 3).
Start the program
To start the program, press the START/PAUSE button or simply begin exercising.
Each program is divided into twenty,
incline program is selected, one incline setting is pro- grammed for each
segment; if a resis- tance program is
selected, one resis- tance setting is pro- grammed for each
segment. The setting of the first segment is shown in the flashing CURRENT SEGMENT col- umn of the LED matrix. The settings of the next seven segments are shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment, three tones will sound. All settings will then move one column to the left. The setting of the second segment will then be shown in the CUR- RENT SEGMENT column and the elliptical crosstrainer will adjust to the second setting.
If an incline program is selected, the resistance can be changed during the program with the RESISTANCE buttons. If a resistance program is selected, the incline can be changed with the INCLINE buttons.
The program will continue until the setting of the twentieth segment is shown in the CURRENT SEGMENT column and the TIME display counts down to zero. The console will then sound a tone and the two displays will pause. The console will remain in this state until the START/PAUSE button or the PROGRAM SELECT button is pressed.
If the program is too easy or too difficult, the difficul- ty level of the program can be adjusted. There are five “fitness levels” (fitness level 5 is the most difficult). If an
incline program is selected, press the INCLINE buttons repeatedly to change the fitness level. An “F 1,” “F 2,” “F 3,”
“F 4,” or “F 5” will appear in the left display to show which fitness level is selected. If a resistance pro- gram is selected, press the RESISTANCE buttons to change the fitness level.
To pause the program before it is completed, press the START/PAUSE button or allow the pedals to come to a stop and step off the pedals. A tone will sound and the two displays will pause and flash. To restart the program, simply begin exercising again. Note: The console will automatically switch into the sleep mode if the pedals are not moved for ten minutes or longer.
Follow your progress with the console displays As you exercise, the two displays will show the time remaining in the program, distance, incline level, laps completed, current speed, calories burned, and resistance level, in five second inter- vals. Your heart rate will also be shown when the pulse sensor is used (see step 5).
Measure your heart rate if desired
