HOW TO USE A PACE PROGRAM
1
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 10.
2
Select one of the four pace programs.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be selected.
To select a
pace program,
press the
Program button
repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, or 4 appears
in the upper right corner of the display.
The four profiles on the right side of the console
show how the target pace will change during the
programs. For example, profile number 1 shows
that during program 1, the target pace will
increase near the beginning of the program, and
then decrease near the end.
3
Start the program.
To start the program, begin pedaling. Each pro-
gram consists of either 20 or 30 one-minute peri-
ods. One target pace is programmed for each
period. Note: The same target pace setting may
be programmed for consecutive periods.
The target pace
settings for the
program will be
shown by the
target pace
indicator in the
display. (Note:
The pace indi-
cator will show
your actual
pedaling pace.)
Target Pace Indicator
Pace Indicator
As the target pace indicator changes in height
during the program, adjust your pedaling pace so
that both indicators are the same height. If your
pedaling pace is slower than the current target
pace setting, an arrow will appear next to the
pace indicators to prompt you to increase your
pace; if your pace is faster than the target pace,
an arrow will prompt you to decrease your pace.
Important: The target pace settings for the
program are intended only to provide a goal.
Your actual pace may be slower than the tar-
get pace settings, especially during the first
few months of your exercise program. Make
sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable
for you.
During the program, adjust the resistance of the
pedals as desired by turning the resistance knob.
The display will show the time remaining in the
program. If you continue exercising after the pro-
gram is completed, the display will continue to
show exercise feedback.
4
Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on page 10.
5
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 10.
6
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off after a few minutes.
See step 6 on page 10.
