COOLING DOWN AFTER A WORKOUT

Cooling down is an important aspect of your workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out of the work- ing muscles. Cooling down for at least three minutes helps provide a smooth transition that allows your heart rate to return to its normal (non-exercising) state. The C846 automatically initiates a five minute, cool-down period once you com- plete a course that has a specified time duration. A prompt appears, indicating that you are in cool down.

During your cool down, the workout statistics continue to appear.The TIME display shows the accumulated time which includes warm-up and cool-down periods.When you complete the five minute cool down, a WORKOUT SUMMARY appears. See the information below.

Important:To activate a cool-down period, a course must “end.” The course ends when the workout time (entered during the Setup prompts) expires. If no workout time entry occurred or the time entered was zero, then (from a software perspec- tive) no time limit exists, so a cool-down period is not appended to the course. (Note that club time limits do apply whether or not a workout time was entered.)

PAUSE, COOL DOWN AND EXIT FEATURES

Pausing, cooling down, and exiting are integral parts of your workout. The C846 goes through several prerequisites before actually exiting a course.The following tables explain the various situations. Since the C846 is self-powered, pedal move- ment must be continuous to avoid shutdown mode. For more information, refer to page 23.

Note: If the optional battery recharger is supplying power to the C846, the factory setting for Pause mode is two minutes (120 seconds). The club has the option to change the setting. A duration can be set between 1 and 120 seconds and limits how long a user can pause his or her workout. Refer to Setting a Pause Time Limit on page 17.
