USING YOUR RACE PROGRAM

Your Race Program is designed to add motivation to a workout by allowing you to compete against a selected pacer. To use your Race Program, follow these instructions:

1.Choose the Race program by either pressing the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. Press ‘Enter’.

2.Choose the desired Pace (average speed) using the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. The Pace levels range from 2 mph to 22 mph in increments of .5 mph, with 2 mph being the lowest and 22 mph being the highest. Once the desired Pace is selected, press ‘Enter’.

3.Choose the desired Distance by pressing the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. Press ‘Enter’.

4.Choose your weight by pressing the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons. Press ‘Enter’.

5.Press ‘Start’ and begin your Race Program.

The time of the program will default accordingly to the pace (average speed) and distance that you entered. After the Race Program has started, press the ‘Up’ or ‘Down’ buttons or the quick resistance keys to adjust your resistance (levels 1-20). Your goal in this program is to beat the pacer to the fin- ish line by covering an equal distance at a faster pace.

The top row of bars shows the computer pacer position. The bottom row of bars indicates your posi- tion. If you trail the pacer, you should pedal at a faster speed to catch and pass the pacer.

If you beat the pacer to the finish line, the screen will flash “You Win” and the program will end. Note: If you beat the pacer to the finish line, you will complete the program before the projected fin- ish time. If the pacer beats you to the finish line, the entire program time will elapse.
