At the end of each segment of the workout, a series of tones will sound and the small arrow will move to the next segment of the profile. If a different resistance level and/or target rpm is programmed for the next segment, the resistance level and/or target rpm will flash in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then change. HOW TO USE A HEART RATE WORKOUT 1. Begin pedaling to turn on the console. A moment after you begin pedaling, the display will light. 2. Select the workout menu. As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your pedaling pace near the target rpm for the current segment. When the words PEDAL FASTER appear in the display, increase your pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear, decrease your pace. When no words appear, maintain your current pace. IMPORTANT: The target rpm is intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the target rpm. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you. If the resistance level for the current segment is too high or too low, you can manually override the setting by pressing the Resistance buttons. IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the workout ends, the pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance level for the next segment. To select the workout menu, press the Intensity Workouts button. The workout menu will then appear in the display. 3. Select a heart rate workout. To select one of the four heart rate workouts, first press the left and right Navigation buttons to highlight the HEART RATE WORKOUTS option, and then press the Enter button. Then, press the left and right or the up and down Navigation buttons until the name of the desired heart rate workout appears in the display. Then, press the Enter button. Note: To return to a previous menu, press the Back button. To return to the manual mode, press the Intensity Control Workouts button. The workout will continue in this way until the small arrow reaches the right end of the profile. To stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. 5. Follow your progress with the display. When you use a preset workout, the display will show the time remaining in the workout, the distance you have pedaled, the resistance level, the approximate number of calories you have burned, and your pedaling pace in revolutions per minute (rpm). 4. Enter a target heart rate setting. A few seconds after you select a heart rate workout, the words SELECT TARGET HEART RATE and the number 110 will appear in the display. Press the up and down Navigation buttons to enter the desired target heart rate setting (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 23), and then press the Enter button. 6. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 6 on page 17. 7. Turn on the fan if desired. See step 7 on page 17. 8. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 8 on page 17. The workout time and a profile of the resistance levels for the workout will then appear in the display. 18
