For the most accurate heart rate reading, continue to hold the handgrips for about 15 seconds. Note: When you first hold the handgrips, the display will show your heart rate continuously for 15 seconds. The display will then show your heart rate along with the other feedback modes. 6 When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off after a few minutes. 3 Start the program. To start the program, simply begin pedalling. Each program consists of either twenty or thirty, one-minute periods. One resistance setting and one pace setting are programmed for each period. (The same resistance setting and/or pace setting may be programmed for consecutive periods.) If the pedals are not moved and the console buttons are not pressed for a few minutes, the console will automatically turn off to conserve the batteries. HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM 1 Turn on the console. See step 1 on page 12. 2 Select one of the six preset programs. Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a preset program, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 appears in the upper right corner of the display. The profiles on the right side of the console show how the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer and the target pace will change during the programs. For example, profile number 3 shows that during program 3, both the resistance and the target pace will gradually increase during the first half of the program, and then decrease during the last half. During the program, the resistance of the elliptical crosstrainer will automatically change as shown by the applicable profile on the console. If the current resistance level is too high or too low, you can change the resistance level by pressing the + and - buttons. However, when the current period of the program is completed, the resistance level will automatically change if a different resistance setting is programmed for the next period. The target pace settings for the program will be shown by the right pace indica- Increase Arrow tor in the display. (The left indicator will show your actual pedalling pace.) As the right indicator changes in height during the program, simply adjust your pace so that both indicators are at the same height. If your pace is slower than the current target pace, the increase arrow will appear in the display to prompt you to increase your pace; if your pace is faster than the target pace, the decrease arrow will appear. Important: The target pace settings for the program are intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the tar- get pace settings, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you. During the program, the display will show the time remaining in the program. If you continue pedalling after the program is completed, the display will continue to show your exercise feedback. 13
