HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT 1. Press any button on the console or begin pedaling to turn on the console. A few seconds after the console is turned on, the displays will light. A tone will then sound and the console will be ready for use. 2. Select a heart rate workout. To select a heart rate workout, press either of the Heart Workouts buttons on the left side of the console. If you select heart rate workout 1, a heart rate symbol will appear in the left display. If you select heart rate Profile workout 2, a profile of the target heart rate settings of the workout will scroll across the left display and the workout time will appear in the upper dis- play. 3. Enter a target heart rate setting. If you select heart rate workout 1, the target heart rate setting for the workout will flash in the lower display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons in the upper left corner of the console to change the target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 19). Note: The same target heart rate setting will be programmed for all segments. If you select heart rate workout 2, the maximum target heart rate setting of the workout will flash in the lower display. If desired, press the increase and decrease buttons in the upper left corner of the console to change the maximum target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 19). Note: If you change the maximum target heart rate setting, the intensity level of the entire workout will change. 4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor. It is not necessary to hold the handgrips continuously during the workout. However, you should hold the handgrips frequently for the workout to function properly. Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal contacts for at least 30 seconds. 5. Press the Workout Start button to start the workout. The heart rate workout 1-This workout is divided into 40 one-minute segments. The same target heart rate is programmed for all segments. Note: For a shorter workout, stop exercising or select a different workout before the workout ends. The heart rate workout 2-This workout 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 workout, the workout profile will show your progress (see the drawing at the left). The flashing segment of the profile represents the current segment of the workout. The height of the flashing segment indicates the target heart rate setting for the current segment. At the end of each segment of the workout, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash. 16
