HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM 1 Turn on the console. Refer to step 1 on page 10. 2 Select one of the eight Smart programs. Each time the console is turned on, the manual mode will be selected. To select a Smart program, press the Program button repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 appears in the upper right corner of the display. The profiles on the right side of the console show how the resistance of the pedals and the target pace will change during the Smart programs. 3 Start the program. To start the program, simply begin pedaling. Each Smart 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.) During the program, the resistance of the pedals 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 indicator in the display. Increase Arrow (The left indicator will show your actual exercise 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 cur- rent 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 tar- get pace settings for the program are intended only to provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace settings, espe- cially during the first few months of your exer- cise program. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. During the program, the display will show the time remaining in the program. If you continue exercising after the program is completed, the display will continue to show your exercise feedback. 4 Follow your progress with the feedback modes. Refer to step 4 on page 10. 5 Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 10. 6 When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off. Refer to step 6 on page 10. 11
