5. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Pulse program 1 is 30 minutes long, and is divid-
ed into several time periods of different lengths.
One target heart rate is programmed for each
period. Pulse program 2 is sixty minutes long
(you may choose to use only part of the program).
The same target heart rate is programmed for the
entire program.
During the program, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting. 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. Note: If the resistance level is too high or
too low, you can override it by pressing the
Increase and Decrease buttons. However, when
the console compares your heart rate to the target
heart rate setting, the resistance may automatical-
ly change.
After the first minute of the program, the pace
guide will help you to maintain a steady pedaling
pace. When one of the two lower indicators lights,
increase your pace; when one of the two upper
indicators 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 will show the time remaining in pulse
program 1, or the elapsed time in pulse program
2. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the pro-
gram will pause and the time will flash in the dis-
play. To restart the program, simply resume pedal-
ing.
