HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
20.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select a preset workout, press the 15 Calorie
Workouts or the 15 Performance Workouts button
repeatedly until the desired workout appears in the
display.
When you select a preset workout, the display will
show the duration of the workout and the name of
the workout. A profile of the speed settings of the
workout will appear in the matrix.
The display will also show the maximum pedaling
speed (rpm), the maximum resistance level, and
the maximum ramp level.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into one-minute segments.
One resistance level, one ramp incline level, and
one target rpm (speed) are programmed for each
segment. Note: The same resistance level, ramp
incline level, and/or target rpm may be pro-
grammed for consecutive segments.
The resistance level, the ramp incline level, and the
target rpm for the first segment will appear in the
matrix.
During the
workout,
the profiles
on the
speed and
incline tabs
will show
your prog-
ress. The flashing segment of the profile represents
the current segment of the workout. The height of
the flashing segment indicates the target speed or
the incline level for the current segment.
At the end of each segment of the workout, a
series of tones will sound and the next segment
of the profile will begin to flash. If a different
Profile

resistance level, ramp incline level, and/or target
rpm is programmed for the next segment, the resis-
tance level, ramp incline level, and/or target rpm
will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert
you. The resistance of the pedals and the incline
level of the ramp will then change.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your
pedaling speed near the target rpm for the current
segment. When an upward-pointing arrow appears
in the display, increase your pace. When a down-
ward-pointing arrow appears, decrease your pace.
When no arrow appears, maintain your current
pace.
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 or incline level for the current
segment is too high or too low, you can manually
override the setting by pressing the Resistance
buttons or the 1 Step Power Ramp buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level programmed for
the next segment and the ramp will automati-
cally adjust to the incline level programmed for
the next segment.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. The time will flash in the display. To
resume the workout, simply resume pedaling.
