Current Segment

HOW TO USE A RESISTANCE & RPM PROGRAM

Press the Resistance decrease button or begin pedaling to turn on the console.

A moment after the console is turned on, the dis- play will light.

Select one of the resistance & rpm programs.

Press the Programs button repeatedly until “P 3,” “P 4,” “P 5,” “P 6,” “P 7,” or “P 8” appears in the right side of the display. When a resistance &

rpm program is selected, a profile of the resis- tance settings of the program will scroll across the center of the display. The left side of the dis- play will show how long the program will last.

Begin pedaling to start the program.

Each program is divided into several one-minute segments. One resistance setting and one pace setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.

The resistance setting for the first segment

will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column in

the center of the dis- play. (Note: The pace

settings are not shown in the display.) The resis- tance settings for the next four segments will be shown in the columns to the right.

As you exercise, the Pace Coach will help you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace setting for the current segment. When one of the “Too Slow” arrows lights, increase your pace. When the one of the “Too Fast” arrows lights, decrease your pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.

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

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 resistance set- tings will move one column to the left. The resis- tance setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column, and the resistance of the pedals will change to the resistance setting for the second segment. Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment column are lit after the resistance settings have moved to the left, the resistance settings may move down- ward so only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.

The program will continue until the resistance set- ting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column and the last segment ends. Note: During the program, you can override the resistance setting for the current segment, if desired, by pressing the increase or decrease but- ton. However, when the next segment begins, the resistance will change if a different resistance set- ting is programmed for the next segment.

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

Monitor your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 13.

Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 14.

Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 6 on page 14.

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

See step 7 on page 14.
