4. Measure your heart rate if desired.
To measure your
heart rate, stop
pedaling and
place your thumb
on the pulse sen-
sor. Do not
press too hard,
or the circula-
tion in your thumb will be restricted and your
pulse will not be detected. After a few seconds,
the heart-shaped indicator in the display will flash
steadily, two dashes will appear, and then your
heart rate will be shown. Hold your thumb on the
pulse sensor for about 15 seconds for the most
accurate reading.
If the displayed heart rate appears to be too high
or too low, or if your heart rate is not displayed, lift
your thumb off the pulse sensor for a few seconds.
Then, place your thumb on the pulse sensor as
described above.
Make sure you are applying the proper amount of
pressure to the pulse sensor. Try the pulse sensor
several times until you become familiar with it.
Remember to stand still while measuring your
heart rate.
5. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
If the pedals do not move for a few seconds, the
console will pause. If the pedals do not move for a
few minutes, the console will turn off and the dis-
play will be reset.
HOW TO USE A PACE WORKOUT
1. Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
2. Select a pace workout.
To select a pace
workout, press
the Pace Workout
button repeatedly
until P1 or P2
appears in the
display. A few
seconds after you
select a pace workout, the display will show the
duration of the workout.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each pace workout consists of 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One target pace is programmed for each
segment. Any time the target pace is about to
change, the display will flash for a few seconds to
alert you.
During the work-
out, the pace
guide will prompt
you to keep your
pedaling pace
near the target
pace setting for the current segment. When the left
indicator lights, increase your pace; when the right
indicator lights, decrease your pace. When the
center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.
Important: The pace guide is intended only to
provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a pace
that is comfortable for you.
The display can show the time remaining in the
workout. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds,
the workout will pause and the time will flash if it is
displayed. To restart the workout, simply resume
pedaling.
