HOW TO USE AN ONBOARD 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 turn
on. The console will then be ready for use.
2. Select an onboard workout.
To select an onboard workout, press the desired
Onboard Workouts button repeatedly until the
desired workout appears in the display.
When you select an onboard workout, the display
will show the name of the workout and the dura-
tion of the workout or the number of calories to be
burned.
The maximum speed and the maximum resistance
level for the workout will also appear in the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target RPM
is programmed for each segment. Note: The same
resistance level and/or target RPM may be pro-
grammed for consecutive segments.
If a different resistance level and/or target RPM is
programmed for the next segment of the workout,
the resistance level and/or target RPM will appear
in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The
resistance of the pedals will then change.
As you exercise, keep your pedaling speed near
the target RPM for the current segment.
IMPORTANT: The target RPM is intended only to
provide motivation. Your actual pedaling speed
may be slower than the target RPM. Make sure
to pedal at a speed that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Quick Resistance buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level programmed for
the next segment.
The workout will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To pause the workout at any time,
stop pedaling. The time will flash in the display. To
resume the workout, simply resume pedaling.
To end the workout, press the End/Summary but-
ton. A summary of the workout will appear in the
displays for several seconds.
