OPERATION

Changing Levels: You can only increase or decrease the resistance level by pressing the UP or DOWN buttons when in the first interval column which is the “warm-up column”. This enables you to set your starting warm-up level.

A longer warm-up at lower resistance can burn more Calories than a shorter warm-up at higher resistance. After the program exits the first interval “warm up column” the UP or DOWN buttons become inoperative and the program automatically adjusts the resistance to bring you into your selected zone.

The program is designed to slowly bring you up to your selected heart rate workout zone, hold you within that zone by reading your heart rate and adjust- ing the level of resistance to keep your workout within that zone, then at the end of the program slowly bring you down into a cool down zone by reducing the resistance level in the last two columns.

As a precaution if your heart rate is above your selected heart rate zone and the resistance level is at the minimum level for 30 seconds, the message “SLOW DOWN” will appear in the alphanumeric display. If after one more minute, your heart rate is still above your selected heart rate zone, the mes- sage “STOP” will be displayed and the program will end.

To STOP or PAUSE the program: Press the START / PAUSE button to pause your workout. The display will show “PRESS RESULT OR PRESS START”. Then if you press the RESULTS button the computer will show your workout results and end the program, or if you press START / PAUSE the computer will resume the program where you left off.
