HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM 1. Begin pedaling to turn on the console. A moment after you begin pedaling, the display will light. 2. Select a smart program. To select one of the eight smart programs, press the Smart Programs button repeatedly until Program 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 appears in the display. The program time and a profile of the resistance levels for the program will also appear in the display. 3. Begin pedaling to start the program. Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one target rpm (pace) setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or target rpm setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. The resistance level and the target rpm for the first segment will appear in the center of the display for a few seconds. As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your pedaling pace near the target rpm setting for the current segment. When an upward arrow appears in the display, increase your pace. When a downward arrow appears in the display, decrease your pace. When no arrows appear in the display, maintain your current pace. IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the target rpm settings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. If the resistance level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the decrease and increase buttons. IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the program ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance level for the next segment. The program will continue in this way until the last segment ends. To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. During the program, the profile will show your progress. The flashing segment of the profile represents the current segment of the workout. The height of the flashing segment indicates the resistance level 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. If a different resistance level and/or target rpm is programmed for the next segment, the resistance level and/or target rpm will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then change. 4. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 15. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 16. 6. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 6 on page 16. 17
