HOW TO USE THE WATTS WORKOUT PROGRAM The WATTS WORKOUT program will automatically change the resistance of the pedals to keep your power output near a target level during your workout. 1 Plug in the power cord or begin pedaling to activate the console. See step 1 on page 10. 2 Select the WATTS WORKOUT program. To select the WATTS WORKOUT program, repeatedly press the PROGRAM SELECT button until the words "WATTS WORKOUT" appear in the main display. A few seconds after the program is selected, the name of the program and the total program time will begin to scroll across the main display. Note: The program can be set to last for 20, 30, 40, 50, or 60 minutes. See step 8 on page 20. 3 Press the START button and enter a target watts setting for the program. When the button is pressed, the words "ENTER TARGET WATTS" and the current target watts setting will scroll across the main display. If you wish to change the target watts setting for the program, press the + and - buttons beside the ENTER AGE/WT. button. The target watts setting can be changed in increments of 10 watts. 4 Press the START button and begin pedaling to start the program. When the button is pressed, the console will begin displaying exercise data. The program is divided into 30-second segments. The same target watts level is programmed for all segments. During the program, the Flashing Column matrix will show your progress. The flashing column represents the cur- rent segment of the program. At the end of each segment, a series of tones will sound, the time will flash in the main display, and the flashing column of the matrix will move one position to the right. During the program, the console will compare your power output to the target watts setting. If your power output is too far above or below the target watts setting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change to bring your power output closer to the target watts setting. Note: Pressing the RESISTANCE + and - buttons during the program will change the target watts setting for the program (see step 3). After you have completed the first three minutes of the program, the flashing column will no longer move to the right at the end of each segment. Instead, all columns of indicators will move one position to the left at the end of each segment. When only 12 minutes remain in the program, the flashing column will again move one position to the right at the end of each segment, until the program is completed. 5 Follow your progress with the main display. See step 5 on page 10. 6 Measure your pulse if desired. See step 6 on page 11. 7 When you are finished using the recumbent bike, the console will automatically enter an idle mode or turn off. See step 7 on page 11. 14
