Changing Programs in Mid-session

You can change programs in the middle of a session by selecting a new program from the PROGRAMS key menu and pressing OK. All accumulated statistics are transferred to the new program as you continue exercising.

Certain programs, such as Basic HRC and Weight Loss, are not available for mid-session transfers due to set goals and program preferences. If this occurs, a message scrolls across the center display.

Note: You cannot select a different program if you are in the cool down period or if you stop pedaling and the equipment is in the pause mode.

Cooling Down After a Workout

Cool down periods are designed to help lower your heart rate toward the end of a workout session.

When you complete a program with a time limit or specified goal, you automatically enter a cool down period. The settings change to help reduce the intensity of your workout.

Note: You cannot switch to a different program during the cool down period. Any pressure on the PROGRAMS keys is ignored.

A workout summary appears at the end of the cool down period.

A cool down period will not be appended to your exercise session if any one of the following occurs:

The fitness facility allows an unlimited time goal. A user must enter a time goal of N O L I M I T to access this option.

The fitness facility sets a cool down time of zero, which eliminates the cool down phase.

You exit a program before completing it.

If you specify an unlimited time or the fitness facility removed the cool down phase, remember to incorporate a cool down period at the end of your exercise session.
