Pedal RPM: Shows pedal speed in revolutions per minute (RPM). Use this display to determine exercise intensity (how hard you are working out) at any given moment.
Fitness Score: Shows a fitness score from 1 to 100 percent. The fitness score is associated with the pacer and helps you determine whether or not you are using the correct exercise level. To maintain a 100% fitness score you must finish the program at the same time as the pacer. You will exceed 100% if you finish ahead of the pacer and be below 100% if you finish behind the pacer.
If you can easily maintain a 100 percent fitness score, you might want to choose a more challenging workout next time. However, if you have difficulty maintaining a high enough score, you might want to choose a lower exercise level.
Watts: Indicates the amount of energy currently being expended.
Calories per Hour: Indicates the number of calories burned per hour. Use this display, along with Calories Used and Pedal RPM, to determine exercise intensity (how hard you are working out) at any given moment.
Calories Used: Provides the number of calories burned in the workout. The cycle determines calories based on a 160 pound rider so if your weight is different, you should use the displayed information only as a reference.
Distance: Shows how far you have travelled, in either miles or kilometers. Use this information to measure total work accomplished during a workout.
Time: Lists the amount of time remaining on the course you are using. Use this display to pace yourself during a workout.
Goal Setting: Indicates the anticipated targets the user will achieve at the selected program or effort level. The goals you set are affected by the speed, workload, and time of your workout session. When you enter a time after the “Enter Workout Time” prompt, the display “Your Goals Are” appears in the left window display and provides the basis for your workout and performance summary.
Right Display
Window
The right display window on the electronic console prompts you to enter specific information, graphically displays a pacer, and provides information about incline:
Pace Tempo: Provides a tempo for you to follow. The pacer provides motiva- tion and helps you maintain exercise intensity. During a workout, if you change the effort level, the pace tempo changes to reflect the new level.
While you workout, the console displays a roadway with two triangles, one on each side of the centerline. The shaded triangle on the left side is the pacer; the triangle on the right side represents you.
If your speed remains even with the pacer, the triangles remain the same size. If you are behind the pacer, the pacer appears to move ahead and become smaller in size. When your speed is greater than the pacer’s, the triangle that
