HOW THE PACER PROGRAMS OPERATE When you use a pacer program, two columns of Actual bars will appear in the display. The left column repre- sents a target pace Target and the right col- umn shows your actual exercising pace. The target pace will change periodically during the program; as the target pace changes, simply adjust your exercising pace to keep both columns at the same height. Important: The tar- get pace is a goal pace. Your actual pace may be slower 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.
