HOW TO USE THE RANDOM HILLS PROGRAM The RANDOM HILLS program will automatically change the resistance of the pedals during your workout. Each time the program is selected, the resistance settings of the program will be different. 1 Plug in the power cord or begin pedaling to activate the console. See step 1 on page 10. 2 Select the RANDOM HILLS program. To select the RANDOM HILLS program, repeatedly press the PROGRAM SELECT button until the words "RANDOM HILLS" appear in the main display. A few seconds after the program is selected, the name of the program and the total program time will begin to scroll across the main display. Note: To select a different RANDOM HILLS program, simply press the CLEAR button. The program can be set to last for 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes. See step 8 on page 20. 3 Press the START button and begin pedaling to start the program. When the button is pressed, the console will begin displaying exercise data. The program is divided into 30-second segments. One resistance level is programmed for each segment. (The same resistance level may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments.) During the program, the matrix Flashing Column will show your progress and the resistance set- tings of the pro- gram. The flash- ing column repre- sents the current segment of the program. The number of lit indica- tors in the flashing column shows the resistance setting for the current segment. At the end of each segment, a series of tones will sound, the time will flash in the main display, and the flashing column of the matrix will move one position to the right. The resistance of the pedals will then automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next segment. Note: The matrix shows relative resistance levels. The lit indicators in the columns may shift upward or downward so that the highest indicators are always shown in the matrix. During the program, you can change the resistance of the pedals if desired by pressing the RESISTANCE + and - buttons or the QUICK RESISTANCE buttons. However, when the current segment ends, the resistance will automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next segment. Note: The program begins with a two-minute warm-up period and ends with a two-minute cool-down period. During these periods, the resistance level cannot be changed. After you have completed the first three minutes of the program, the flashing column will no longer move to the right at the end of each segment. Instead, all columns of indicators will move one position to the left at the end of each segment. When only 12 minutes remain in the program, the flashing column will again move one position to the right at the end of each segment, until the program is completed. 4 Follow your progress with the main display. See step 5 on page 10. 5 Measure your pulse if desired. See step 6 on page 11. 6 When you are finished using the upright bike, the console will automatically enter an idle mode or turn off. See step 7 on page 11. 13

HOW TO USE THE RANDOM HILLS PROGRAM
The RANDOM HILLS program will automatically
change the resistance of the pedals during your work-
out. Each time the program is selected, the resistance
settings of the program will be different.
Plug in the power cord or begin pedaling to
activate the console.
See step 1 on page 10.
Select the RANDOM HILLS program.
To select the RANDOM HILLS program, repeat-
edly press the PROGRAM SELECT button until
the words “RANDOM HILLS” appear in the main
display.
A few seconds after the program is selected, the
name of the program and the total program time
will begin to scroll across the main display. Note:
To select a different RANDOM HILLS program,
simply press the CLEAR button. The program can
be set to last for 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes.
See step 8 on page 20.
Press the START button and begin pedaling to
start the program.
When the button is pressed, the console will begin
displaying exercise data.
The program is divided into 30-second segments.
One resistance level is programmed for each seg-
ment. (The same resistance level may be pro-
grammed for two or more consecutive segments.)
During the pro-
gram, the matrix
will show your
progress and the
resistance set-
tings of the pro-
gram. The flash-
ing column repre-
sents the current
segment of the program. The number of lit indica-
tors in the flashing column shows the resistance
setting for the current segment. At the end of each
segment, a series of tones will sound, the time will
flash in the main display, and the flashing column
of the matrix will move one position to the right.
The resistance of the pedals will then automati-
cally change if a different resistance level is pro-
grammed for the next segment. Note: The matrix
shows
relative
resistance levels. The lit indicators
in the columns may shift upward or downward so
that the highest indicators are always shown in
the matrix.
During the program, you can change the resis-
tance of the pedals if desired by pressing the RE-
SISTANCE + and – buttons or the QUICK RESIS-
TANCE buttons. However, when the current seg-
ment ends, the resistance will automatically
change if a different resistance level is pro-
grammed for the next segment. Note: The pro-
gram begins with a two-minute warm-up period
and ends with a two-minute cool-down period.
During these periods, the resistance level cannot
be changed.
After you have completed the first three minutes
of the program, the flashing column will no longer
move to the right at the end of each segment.
Instead, all columns of indicators will move one
position to the left at the end of each segment.
When only 12 minutes remain in the program, the
flashing column will again move one position to
the right at the end of each segment, until the pro-
gram is completed.
Follow your progress with the main display.
See step 5 on page 10.
Measure your pulse if desired.
See step 6 on page 11.
When you are finished using the upright bike,
the console will automatically enter an idle
mode or turn off.
See step 7 on page 11.
