HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM 1. Turn on the console. To turn on the console, press the On/Reset button or begin pedaling. The entire display will light for a moment; the console will then be ready for use. 2. Select a smart program. To select a smart program, press the Smart Programs button repeatedly until P1, P2, P3, or P4 appears in the display. A few seconds after you select a smart program, the display will show the length of the program. 3. Begin pedaling to start the program. The smart programs consist of 20 or 30 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one target pace are programmed for each segment. Whenever the resistance is about to change, the resistance level will flash in the display for a few seconds. The resistance of the pedals will then automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the next segment. Note: You can manually override the programmed resistance level by pressing the Resistance increase and decrease buttons. However, when the current segment ends, the resistance will automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the next segment. The target pace settings for the program will be shown by the target pace meter in the display. The pace meter will show your actual pedaling pace. As the target pace meter Target Pace Meter changes in height during the pro- gram, adjust your pedaling pace so that the same number of bars appears in both meters. If your Pace Meter pedaling pace is slower than the current target pace setting, an arrow will appear next to the pace meter to prompt you to increase your pace; if your pace is faster than the target pace, an arrow will prompt you to decrease your pace. IMPORTANT: The target pace settings for the program are intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace settings, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. The display will show the time remaining in the program. If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the program will pause and the time will flash in the display. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. 4. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 12. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 13. 6. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 6 on page 13. 14
