Page 16 highlights

To view the approximate number of calories that you are burning per hour and the approximate number of calories that you have burned during your workout, press the Display button again. To view the program profile again, press the Display button again. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. 4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor. It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sensor continuously during heart rate programs; however, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor frequently for the programs to operate properly. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. See step 5 on page 14. 5. Begin pedaling to start the program. 6. Turn on the fan if desired. See step 6 on page 15. 7. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 7 on page 15. HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM 1. Press any button on the console or begin pedaling to turn on the console. See step 1 on page 14. 2. Select a heart rate program. To select one of the heart rate programs, press the Heart Rate Programs button repeatedly until the words HEART RATE 1 or HEART RATE 2 appear in the display. Heart rate program 1 is divided into 40 oneminute segments. Note: For a shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different program before the program ends. Heart rate program 2 is divided into 30 oneminute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. During the program, the program profile in the display will show your progress. The flashing column of the profile represents the current segment of the program. The height of the flashing column indicates the target heart rate setting for the current segment. At the end of each segment of the program, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash. Profile 3. Enter a target heart rate setting. A few seconds after you select a heart rate program, the words ENTER HEART RATE will appear in the display and the number 110 will begin to flash. During heart rate program 1, the same target heart rate setting will be programmed for all segments of the program. If you have selected heart rate program 1, press the increase and decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Programs button to enter the desired target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 19). During heart rate program 2, different target heart rate settings will be programmed for different segments of the program. If you have selected heart rate program 2, press the increase and decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Programs button to enter the desired maximum target heart rate setting for the program (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 19). Arrow During both programs, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting for the current segment of the program. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. Each time the resistance changes, the resistance setting will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you. While you exercise, you will be prompted to maintain a constant pedaling speed. If an upward-pointing arrow appears in the display (see the drawing above), increase your speed. If a downward-pointing arrow appears, decrease your speed. When no arrow appears, maintain your current speed. 16

HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
1.
Press any button on the console or begin ped-
aling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 14.
2.
Select a heart rate program.
To select one of the heart rate programs, press the
Heart Rate Programs button repeatedly until the
words HEART RATE 1 or HEART RATE 2 appear
in the display.
3.
Enter a target heart rate setting.
A few seconds after you select a heart rate pro-
gram, the words ENTER HEART RATE will appear
in the display and the number 110 will begin to
flash.
During heart rate program 1,
the same target
heart rate setting will be programmed for all seg-
ments of the program. If you have selected heart
rate program 1, press the increase and decrease
buttons above the Heart Rate Programs button to
enter the desired target heart rate setting (see
EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 19).
During heart rate program 2,
different target
heart rate settings will be programmed for different
segments of the program. If you have selected
heart rate program 2, press the increase and
decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Programs
button to enter the desired maximum target heart
rate setting for the program (see EXERCISE
INTENSITY on page 19).
4.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor continuously during heart rate programs; how-
ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor
frequently for the programs to operate properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,
keep your hands on the metal contacts for at
least 30 seconds.
5.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate program 1
is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. Note: For a shorter workout,
stop exercising or select a different program
before the program ends.
Heart rate program 2
is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
target heart rate setting may be programmed for
consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile in the dis-
play will show your progress. The flashing column
of the profile represents the current segment of the
program. The height of the flashing column indi-
cates the target heart rate setting for the current
segment. At the end of each segment of the pro-
gram, a series of tones will sound and the next
segment of the profile will begin to flash.
During both programs,
the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current segment of the program. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
Each time the resistance changes, the resistance
setting will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.
While you exercise, you will be prompted to main-
tain a constant pedaling speed. If an upward-point-
ing arrow appears in the display (see the drawing
above), increase your speed. If a downward-point-
ing arrow appears, decrease your speed. When no
arrow appears, maintain your current speed.
