HOW TO USE A PACER PROGRAM
Turn on the console.
1
See step 1 on page 12.
Select one of the eight pacer programs.
2
Each time the
console is turned
on, the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select a pacer
program, press
the Program but-
ton repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
or 8 appears in the upper right corner of the dis-
play.
The profiles on the right side of the console show
how the resistance of the crosstrainer and the tar-
get pace will change during the pacer programs.
For example, profile number 6 shows that during
pacer program 6, the resistance will gradually
increase during the first half of the program, and
then gradually decrease during the last half; the
target pace will alternately increase and decrease
throughout the program.
Start the program.
3
To start the program, simply begin exercising.
Each pacer program consists of either 20 or 30
one-minute periods. One resistance setting and
one pace setting are programmed for each period.
(The same resistance setting and/or pace setting
may be programmed for consecutive periods.)
During the program, the resistance of the
crosstrainer will automatically change as shown
by the applicable profile on the console. If the cur-
rent resistance level is too high or too low, you
can change the resistance level by pressing the +
and – buttons. However, when the current period
of the program is completed, the resistance level
will automatically change if a different resistance
setting is programmed for the next period.
The target pace
settings for the
program will be
shown by the
right pace indica-
tor in the display.
(The left indicator
will show your
actual exercise pace.) As the right indicator
changes in height during the program, simply
adjust your pace so that both indicators are at the
same height. If your pace is slower than the cur-
rent target pace, the increase arrow will appear in
the display to prompt you to increase your pace; if
your pace is faster than the target pace, the
decrease arrow will appear. Important: The tar-
get pace settings for the program are intended
only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may
be slower than the target pace settings, espe-
cially during the first few months of your exer-
cise program. Make sure to exercise at a pace
that is comfortable for you.
During the program, the display will show the time
remaining in the program. If you continue exercis-
ing after the program is completed, the display
will continue to show your exercise feedback.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.
