HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
When you turn on the console, the display will
light. The console will then be ready for use.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select one of the heart rate workouts, press the
Menu button, select WORKOUTS, and then select
the HEART RATE workout menu.
After you select a workout menu, select the profile
of the workout you desire to use.
The workout time and a profile of the target heart
rate settings for the workout will appear in the dis-
play.
3. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor continuously during heart rate workouts; how-
ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor
frequently for the workouts to operate properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,
keep your hands on the metal contacts for at
least 30 seconds.
4. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for each segment. Note: The same tar-
get heart rate setting may be programmed for con-
secutive segments.
During the workout, the workout profile in the dis-
play will show your progress. The flashing seg-
ment of the profile represents the current segment
of the workout. The height of the flashing segment
indicates the target heart rate setting 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.
The console will regularly compare your heart rate
to the target heart rate setting for the current seg-
ment of the workout. If your heart rate is too far
below or above the target heart rate setting, the
resistance of the pedals will automatically increase
or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the
target heart rate setting. Each time the resistance
changes, the resistance level will appear in the
display for a few seconds to alert you.
