The program is divided into 30-second segments.
One target heart rate setting is programmed for
each segment. Note: If the CONSTANT PULSE
program is selected, the same target heart rate
setting is programmed for all segments.
At the end of each segment, a tone will sound and
the resistance of the pedals will automatically
change, if necessary, to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting for the next
segment. The program will continue in this way
until the last segment ends.
During the program, you can change the resis-
tance of the pedals, if desired, by pressing the
RESISTANCE + and – buttons or the QUICK-
TOUCH RESISTANCE buttons. However, when
the current segment ends, the resistance will auto-
matically change, if necessary, to bring your heart
rate closer to the target heart rate setting for the
next segment. Note: Each PULSE program ends
with a two-minute cool-down period. During this
period, the resistance level cannot be changed.
If your pulse is not detected during the program,
the letters "PLS" will flash in the main display, and
the resistance of the pedals may automatically de-
crease. If this occurs, see THE PULSE SENSOR
on page 11.

HOW TO USE THE INTERVAL PROGRAM
