HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM
1 Turn on the console.
Refer to step 1 on page 12.
2Select one of the eight Smart programs.
Each time the
console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Smart program, press
the Program but-
ton repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 appears in the upper right corner of the dis- play.
The profiles on the right side of the console show how the resistance of the exercise cycle and the target pace will change during the Smart pro- grams. For example, profile number 6 shows that during Smart program 6, the resistance will gradu- ally increase during the first half of the program, and then gradually decrease during the last half;
the target pace will alternately increase and decrease throughout the program.
3 Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin exercising. Each Smart program consists of either twenty or thirty,
During the program, the resistance of the exer- cise cycle will automatically change as shown by the applicable profile on the console. If the cur- rent resistance level is too high or too low, you
can change the resistance level by pressing the + and – buttons. However, when the current period of the program is completed, the resistance level
will automatically change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the next period.
The target pace
settings for the program will be shown by the right pace indica- tor in the display. (The left indicator
will show your
actual exercise pace.) As the right indicator changes in height during the program, simply adjust your pace so that both indicators are at the same height. If your pace is slower than the cur- rent target pace, the increase arrow will appear in the display to prompt you to increase your pace; if your pace is faster than the target pace, the
decrease arrow will appear. Important: The tar-
get pace settings for the program are intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace settings, espe- cially during the first few months of your exer- cise program. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
During the program, the display will show the time remaining in the program. If you continue exercis- ing after the program is completed, the display
will continue to show your exercise feedback.
4 Follow your progress with the feedback modes.
Refer to step 4 on page 12.
5 Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 12.
When you are finished exercising, the console
6 will automatically turn off after a few minutes.
Refer to step 6 on page 12.
