Both heart rate programs-As you pedal, the console will regularly compare your heart rate to the target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is too far below or above the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. HOW TO CREATE A CUSTOM PROGRAM 1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console. A moment after you turn on the console, the screen will light. You will also be prompted to pedal at a steady pace. When the color of the RPM display on the screen is white or blue, increase your pace. When the RPM display is yellow or pink, decrease your pace. When the RPM display is green, maintain your current pace. Important: Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. Note: You can manually override the resistance level setting; however, if you change the resistance level, you might not maintain the target heart rate. Also, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. 6. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 15. 7. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 16. 8. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 6 on page 16. 2. Select a custom program. To select a custom program, press the Create Your Own button once or twice until the desired custom program appears on the screen. 3. Press the Start button or begin pedaling to start the program, and program the desired settings. Each custom program is divided into 40 oneminute segments. You can program one resistance level and one target pace for each segment. To program a resistance level for the first segment, simply adjust the resistance of the pedals by pressing the OneTouch Resistance buttons. To program a target pace for the first segment, simply pedal at the desired pace. At the end of the first segment, the program will store the current resistance level and your current pace in memory. Program a resistance level and a target pace for the second segment as described above. Continue exercising for up to forty minutes. Press the Create Your Own button when you are finished with your workout. The program you created will then be stored in memory. Note: If your workout is less than forty minutes long, any remaining segments in the program will be stored with the last programmed resistance level and target pace. 4. When the program is finished, the console will turn off automatically. See step 6 on page 16. 19

Both heart rate programs
—As you pedal, the
console will regularly compare your heart rate to
the target heart rate setting. If your heart rate is
too far below or above the target heart rate setting,
the resistance of the pedals will automatically
increase or decrease to bring your heart rate clos-
er to the target heart rate setting.
You will also be prompted to pedal at a steady
pace. When the color of the RPM display on the
screen is white or blue, increase your pace.
When the RPM display is yellow or pink,
decrease your pace. When the RPM display is
green, maintain your current pace.
Important:
Make sure to exercise at a pace that is com-
fortable for you.
Note: You can manually override the resistance
level setting; however, if you change the resis-
tance level, you might not maintain the target
heart rate. Also, when the console compares your
heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the
resistance of the pedals may automatically
increase or decrease to bring your heart rate
closer to the target heart rate setting.

Each custom program is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. You can program one resis-
tance level and one target pace for each seg-
ment.
To program a resistance level for the first seg-
ment, simply adjust the resistance of the pedals
by pressing the OneTouch Resistance buttons. To
program a target pace for the first segment, sim-
ply pedal at the desired pace.
At the end of the first segment, the program will
store the current resistance level and your current
pace in memory. Program a resistance level and
a target pace for the second segment as
described above.
Continue exercising for up to forty minutes. Press
the Create Your Own button when you are fin-
ished with your workout. The program you creat-
ed will then be stored in memory. Note: If your
