Selecting the Correct Intensity Level
In the Hill and Random programs, incline level refers to a range of hill inclines measured in
percentages. The higher the incline level selected (between 1 and 12), the greater the
range of hill incline percentages.
In the Hill and Random programs, incline level refers to a range of hill inclines measured in

Level 1: 0.0% – 4.0%
Level 2: 0.0% – 6.0%
Level 3: 0.0% – 7.0%
Level 4: 1.0% – 7.0%
Level 5: 2.0% – 8.0%
Level 6: 3.0% – 9.0%
Level 1: 0.0% – 4.0%

Level 4: 1.0% – 7.0%
Level 5: 2.0% – 8.0%
Level 6: 3.0% – 9.0%
There are seven possible hill incline percentages within the range for any level. The first hill
height is represented by four lights per column in the Program Profile window, and each
successive LED represents a higher hill. For example, in level 5, the lowest incline
percentage for any hill is 2.0% (represented by four LEDs) and no hill will be higher than an
8.0% incline (all 10 LEDs in the column will be lit). You may increase or decrease the
elevation, but the change will only last as long as the hill you are currently on. When the
program calls for a change in incline, the elevation will change in accordance with the
incline level you originally selected. You can choose a new incline level at anytime during
either program.
