5 Press the Start button to start the program. Each heart rate program is divided into oneminute segments. One target heart rate setting is programmed for each segment. Note: The same target heart rate setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments. The target heart rate setting for the Current Segment first segment will be shown in the flashing Current Segment column of the matrix. The target heart rate settings for the next seven seg- ments will be shown in the columns to the right. When only three seconds remain in the first segment of the program, both the Current Segment column and the column to the right will flash, a series of tones will sound, and all target heart rate settings will move one column to the left. The target heart rate setting for the second segment will then be shown in the flashing Current Segment column. 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 elliptical exerciser will automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. The Target Pace guide will prompt you to increase or decrease your pedaling pace during the program. When the words "Too Slow" appear in the display, increase your pace. When the words "Too Fast" appear, decrease your pace. When the words "On Pace" appear, maintain your current pace. Important: The target heart rate settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual heart rate may be slower than the target heart rate settings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. The program will continue until the target heart rate setting for the last segment is shown in the Current Segment column of the matrix and the last segment ends. Note: During the program, you can manually override the resistance setting for the current segment, if desired, with the 1 Step Resistance buttons. However, when the console compares your heart rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance of the elliptical exerciser may automatically increase or decrease to bring your heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting. If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound and the program will pause. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. 6 Adjust the angle of the ramp as desired. See step 4 on page 11. 7 Monitor your progress with the displays. See step 5 on page 11. 8 Turn on the fan if desired. See step 7 on page 12. 9 When the program is finished, the console will automatically turn off. See step 8 on page 12. 15
