HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1. Press any button on the console or begin ped-
aling to turn on the console.
When you turn on the console, the display and the
target pacer will light. A tone will then sound and
the console will be ready for use.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select a preset workout, press one of the eight
Quick Resistance/Pace Workouts buttons. When
you select a preset workout, the name of the work-
out and the maximum resistance level will appear
in the display for a few seconds. A profile of the
resistance levels of the workout will also scroll
across the left side of the display.
Profile
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target pace
setting is programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance level and/or target pace set-
ting may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing column of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
column indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent 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 differ-
ent resistance level is programmed for the next
segment, the resistance level will appear in the
display for a few seconds to alert you. The resis-
tance of the pedals will then change.
During the workout, the target pacer will prompt
you to keep your pedaling pace near the target
pace setting for the current segment. When a left
indicator lights, increase your pace; when a right
indicator lights, decrease your pace. When the
center indicator lights, maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target pacer is intended only
to provide a goal. 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
resistance level by pressing the Quick Resistance
buttons. However, when the current segment
ends, the resistance of the pedals will automatical-
ly adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To
restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The
workout will continue until the last segment of the
profile ends.
4. Follow your progress with the displays.
See step 4 on page 15.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 16.
6. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 6 on page 16.
HOW TO USE THE SOUND SYSTEM
To play music or audio books through the consoleʼs
sound system while you exercise, plug an audio cable
(not included) into the jack on the console and into a
jack on your MP3 player or CD player; make sure
that the audio cable is fully plugged in.
Next, press the play button on your MP3 player or CD
player. Adjust the volume of the speakers using the
volume control on your MP3 player or CD player.
