PAUSING WORKOUTS

To pause a workout, press the CLEAR/PAUSE key. Pedaling must not cease. PAUSE will eliminate resistance during the pause duration. To continue the workout, press the ENTER key.

INITIATING AN EARLY COOL-DOWN

Cool Down mode ends a workout and gradually lowers the intensity level automatically. Press the COOL DOWN key at any desired point during a workout to go immediately into Cool Down mode. In this phase of a workout the body begins to remove lactic acid and other accumulated by-products of exercise, which build up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness. The console automatically adjusts each workout’s Cool Down level according to the individual user’s performance. Each additional time the user presses the COOL DOWN key, the resistance level shortens by half. It is possible to change the Cool Down duration by pressing the TIME ARROW keys.

ENDING WORKOUTS EARLY

To end a workout before the pre-set duration expires, press CLEAR/PAUSE key three times. The MESSAGE CENTER dis- plays “SELECT WORKOUT PROFILE OR PRESS QUICK START” for a new workout.
