The left column represents a target pace, and Target Pace Actual Pace the right column shows your actual pedaling pace. The target pace will change periodical- ly during the program; as the target pace changes, simply adjust your pedaling pace to keep both columns at the same height. Important: The target pace is a goal pace. Your actual pace may be slow- er than the target pace, especially during the first few months of your exercise program. Be sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. The three graphs on the console show how the target pace will change during the programs. Each graph is divided into ten columns of bars. Each column represents a two-minute period, and each bar represents a target pace of 5 mph (8 kph). In graph P1, for example, there is one bar in the farthest left column. This shows that during the first two minutes of program P1, the target pace will be 5 mph (8 kph). In the second column there are five bars. This shows that during the second two-minute period, the target pace will be 25 mph (40 kph). Each program will last for twenty minutes.

HOW THE PACER PROGRAMS OPERATE
When you use a
pacer program, two
columns of bars
will appear in the
display. The left
column represents
a target pace, and
the right column
shows your actual
pedaling pace. The target pace will change periodical-
ly during the program; as the target pace changes,
simply adjust your pedaling pace to keep both
columns at the same height.
Important: The target
pace is a
goal
pace. Your actual pace may be slow-
er than the target pace, especially during the first
few months of your exercise program. Be sure to
exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.

on the console
show how the tar-
get pace will
change during the
programs. Each
graph is divided
into ten columns of bars. Each column represents a
two-minute period, and each bar represents a target
pace of 5 mph (8 kph). In graph P1, for example, there
is one bar in the farthest left column. This shows that
during the first two minutes of program P1, the target
pace will be 5 mph (8 kph). In the second column
there are five bars. This shows that during the second
two-minute period, the target pace will be 25 mph (40
kph). Each program will last for twenty minutes.
