HOW TO USE A CUSTOM PROGRAM

1Turn on the console. See step 1 on page 14.

2Select a custom program.

To select a custom program, press the Custom Programs button repeatedly until the words CUS- TOM 1 or CUSTOM 2 appear in the display.

When you select a custom program, the name of the program, the program time, and the maximum pace and resistance level will appear in the dis- play for a few seconds. A profile of the resistance levels of the program will then appear in the dis- play.

Profile

As you exercise, you will be prompted to

keep your pedaling

pace near the target pace setting for the

current segment.

When an upward-pointing arrow or the prompt SPEED UP appears next to the pace information in the display (see step 4 on page 17), increase your pace. When a downward-pointing arrow or the prompt SLOW DOWN appears, decrease your pace. When no arrow or prompt appears, maintain your current pace. Important: The tar- get pace settings are intended only to provide motivation. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.

If the resistance level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the OneTouch Resistance buttons. However, when the current segment ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance level for the next segment.

If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series of tones will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The program will continue until the last segment of the profile flashes and the last segment of the pro- gram ends.
