HOW TO USE AN ONBOARD WORKOUT
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
When you turn on the console, the display will turn
on. The console will then be ready for use.
2. Select an onboard workout.
To select an onboard workout, press the Calorie
button or the Performance button repeatedly until
the name of the desired workout appears in the
display.
When you select an onboard workout, the display
will show the name, duration, and distance of the
workout. The display will also show the approxi-
mate number of calories you will burn during the
workout and a profile of the resistance settings of
the workout.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into segments. One
resistance level and one target rpm (speed) are
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
resistance level and/or target rpm may be pro-
grammed for consecutive segments.
During the workout, the profile will show your prog-
ress. The flashing segment of the profile represents
the current segment of the workout. The height of
the profile indicates the approximate resistance
level for the current segment.
At the end of each segment of the workout, the
resistance of the pedals will change.
As you exercise, keep your pedaling speed
near the target rpm for the current segment.
IMPORTANT: The target rpm is intended only to
provide motivation. Your actual pedaling speed
may be slower than the target rpm. Make sure
to pedal at a speed 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 Quick Resistance buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level programmed for
the next segment.
Note: The calorie goal is an estimate of the
number of calories that you will burn during
the workout. The actual number of calories that
you burn will depend on various factors such
as your weight. In addition, if you manually
change the resistance of the pedals during the
workout, the number of calories you burn will
be affected.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To pause the workout, stop pedal-
ing. The time will pause in the display. To resume
the workout, simply resume pedaling.
4. Follow your progress.
See step 4 on page 17.
The matrix will also show a profile of the resistance
settings of the workout or a map.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 18.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 6 on page 18.
7. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 7 on page 18.
