HOW TO USE A WORKOUT PROGRAM
1 Begin pedaling to activate the console.
See step 1 on page 11.
2 Select one of the workout programs.
When the power is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a workout
program, press the Program
Select button repeatedly until one of the eight program indicators lights.
When a workout program is selected, the matrix will show the first resistance settings of the pro- gram. The left display will show how long the pro- gram will last. Note: The eight profiles printed on the left and right sides of the console show how the resistance of the pedals and the target pace will change during the workout programs. The upper right profile, for example, shows that both the resistance and the target pace will alternately increase and decrease during that program.
Press the Start button or begin pedaling to
3 start the program.
Each program is divided into several time periods of different lengths. One resistance setting and one target pace setting are programmed for each period. (The same resistance setting and/or target pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive periods.)
The resistance setting for the first period will be
shown in the flash- ing Current Period column of the matrix. The resis- tance settings of the next several
periods will be
shown in the columns to the right.
When only three seconds remain in the first period of the program, both the Current Period column and the column to the right will flash, a series of tones will sound, and all resistance settings will
move one column to the left. The resistance set- ting for the second period will then be shown in the flashing Current Period column, and the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to the resistance setting for the second period. Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Period column are lit after the resistance settings have moved to the left, the resistance settings will move downward so that only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.
During the pro-
gram, the Target Pace display will help you to keep your pedaling pace
near the target
pace for the cur- rent period. When
your pedaling pace is near the target pace, the round indicator in the center of the display will light. If one of the upper two arrows in the display lights, decrease your pedaling pace; if one of the lower two arrows lights, increase your pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your pace may be slower than the target pace set- tings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, resume pedaling. The program will con- tinue until the resistance setting for the last peri- od is shown in the Current Period column of the matrix and the last period is completed.
Note: During the program, you can manually change the resistance, if desired, by pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when the next period begins, the resistance will automatically change if a different resistance setting is pro- grammed for the next period.
4 Monitor your progress with the two displays.
See step 4 on page 11.
5 Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 12.
When you are finished exercising, the con-
6 sole will automatically turn off.
See step 6 on page 12.
