Current Segment

4Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.

It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continuously during a heart rate program; however, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently for the program to operate properly. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds.

5Press the Start button to start the program. First heart rate program—This program is divid- ed into 20 one-minute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each seg- ment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.

The target heart

rate setting for the first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the matrix. The

target heart rate

settings for the next several segments will be shown in the columns to the right.

When only three seconds remain in the first seg- ment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash, a series of tones will sound, and all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. The target heart rate setting for the second seg- ment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column.

Second heart rate program—This program is divided into 40 one-minute segments. The same target heart rate is programmed for all segments. Note: For a shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different program before the program ends.

Both heart rate programs—As you pedal, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate set- ting, the resistance of the pedals will automatical- ly increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

The Target Pace guide will prompt you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace during the program. When one of the “Too Slow” indica- tors lights, increase your pace. When the one of the “Too Fast” indicators lights, decrease your pace. When the “On Pace” indicator lights, main- tain your current pace.

Important: The target heart rate settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual heart rate may be slower than the tar- get heart rate settings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.

Note: During the program, you can manually over- ride the resistance setting for the current seg- ment, if desired, with the 1 Step Resistance but- tons. However, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.

If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling.

7Turn on the fan if desired. See step 6 on page 12.

8 When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off.
