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 resistance of the pedals, if desired, by pressing the RESISTANCE + and - buttons or the QUICKTOUCH RESISTANCE buttons. However, when the current segment ends, the resistance will automatically 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 decrease. If this occurs, see the instructions included with the chest pulse sensor. 9 Follow your progress with the main display. See THE MAIN DISPLAY on page 11. 10 When you are finished using the elliptical trainer, the console will automatically enter an idle mode or turn off. See HOW TO TURN OFF THE CONSOLE on page 10. HOW TO USE THE INTERVAL PROGRAM The INTERVAL program will automatically change the resistance of the pedals to simulate a series of hills as it guides you through an effective interval training workout. 1 Plug in the power cord or begin pedalling to activate the console.
