HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM 1 Turn on the console. To turn on the console, press any button or begin pedaling. The display will light and the console will be ready for use. 2 Select a smart program. To select a smart program, press one of the four Smart Programs buttons. When a smart program is selected, the upper section of the display will show how long the program will last. A few seconds later, the maximum resistance level for the program will appear in the display. 3 Start the program. To start the program, press the Start Program/Reset button and begin pedaling. Each program is divided into 20 one-minute segments. One resistance level and one pace setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or pace setting may be programmed for two or more consecutive segments. Whenever the resistance is about to change, the resistance level will flash in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the next segment. Note: If the resistance level is too low or too high, you can override it by pressing the Resistance + and - buttons. However, when the current segment ends, the resistance will automatically change to the resistance level programmed for the next segment. As you exercise, the display will prompt you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace setting for the current segment. When the word "faster" appears in the display, increase your pace. When the word "slower" appears, decrease your pace. When the center of the target flashes, maintain your current pace. Important: The pace settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the pace settings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. If you stop pedaling for several seconds, the time will begin to flash in the display. To restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The program will continue until the display shows a time of 0:00. If you continue to pedal after the program is completed, the display will continue to show exercise feedback; however, the display will not show the elapsed time until you select the manual mode or a new program. 4 Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 11. 5 Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 11. 6 When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off. See step 6 on page 11. 12
