will be shown.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue
to hold the handgrips for about 30 seconds. Note:
When you first hold the handgrips, the large dis-

HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM
Each Smart program will automatically change the
resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or
decrease your pace as it guides you through an effec-
tive workout. Programs 3 and 4 are weight loss pro-
grams, program 5 is an aerobic program, and program
6 is a high-performance interval-training program.
Follow the steps below to use a Smart program.
Turn on the console.
1
See step 1 on page 11.
Select one of the Smart programs.
2
Each time the console is
turned on, the manual
mode will be selected. To
select a Smart program,
press the Program button
repeatedly until the num-
ber 3, 4, 5, or 6 appears in
the small display.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
3
To start the program, simply begin pedalling.
Each Smart program consists of 20 or 30 one-
minute periods. One resistance level and one tar-
get pace are programmed for each period. (The
same resistance level and/or target pace may be
programmed for two or more consecutive periods.)
At the end of each period of the program, the
resistance of the pedals will automatically change
if a different resistance level is programmed for
the next period. Note: If the resistance level is too
high or too low, you can change it by pressing the
+ and – buttons below the large display. However,
when the current period is completed, the resis-
tance of the pedals will automatically change if a
different resistance level is programmed for the
next period.
The target pace
for the current
Indicator
period will be
Bar
shown by the
arrows in the
Arrows
small display. To
pedal at the target
pace, simply
increase or decrease your pace until one seg-
ment of the indicator bar appears at the tip of
each arrow (see the drawing above). At the end
of each period, the number of arrows will change
if a different target pace is programmed for the
next period. When the number of arrows
changes, change your pace until there is again
one segment of the indicator bar at the tip of each
arrow. Important: The target pace is intended
only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may
be slower than the target pace, especially dur-
ing the first few months of your exercise pro-
gram. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
During the program, the centre of the large dis-
play will show the time remaining in the program.
If you stop pedalling for a few seconds, the dis-
plays will pause and the time will flash. If you
continue pedalling after the program is complet-
ed, the displays will continue to show exercise
feedback.
Follow your progress with the large display.
