HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM
1. Turn on the console.
To turn on the console, press any button or begin
pedaling. The display will light and the console will
be ready for use.
2. Select a smart program.
To select a smart pro-
gram, press the
Program Select button
repeatedly until P3,
P4, P5, P6, P7, or P8
appears in the display.
The first section of the display will show how long
the program will last.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one pace setting
are programmed for each segment. Note: The
same resistance level and/or pace setting may be
programmed for two or more consecutive seg-
ments.
Whenever the resistance is about to change, the
resistance level will flash in the display for a few
seconds. The resistance of the pedals will then
automatically change to the resistance level pro-
grammed for the next segment. Note: If the resis-
tance level is too low or too high, you can override
it by pressing the Increase and Decrease buttons.
However, when the current segment ends, the
resistance will automatically change to the resis-
tance level programmed for the next segment.
As you exercise, the
display will prompt you
to keep your pedaling
pace near the pace
setting for the current
segment. When the
word "faster" appears in the display, increase your
pace. When the word "slower" appears, decrease
your pace. When the center of the target flashes,
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 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
level by pressing the decrease and increase but-
tons. IMPORTANT: When the current segment
of the program ends, the pedals will automati-
cally adjust to the resistance setting for the
next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, the time
will begin to flash in the display. To restart the pro-
gram, simply resume pedaling.
The program will continue until the display shows
a time of 0:00. If you continue to pedal after the
program is completed, the display will continue to
show exercise feedback; however, the display will
not show the elapsed time until you select the
manual mode or a new program.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on page 12.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 12.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 6 on page 12.
