HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT 1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the console to turn on the console. See HOW TO ACTIVATE THE CONSOLE on page 16. 2. Select a preset workout. To select a preset workout, press the Performance Workouts button or the Weight Loss Workouts button repeatedly until the name of the desired workout appears in the display. Profile The workout duration, the maximum speed, and a profile of the resistance levels will also appear in the display. 3. Begin pedaling to start the workout. Each workout is divided into 20, 30 or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one target speed is programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or target speed may be programmed for consecutive segments. As you exercise, keep your pedaling speed near the target speed for the current segment. At the beginning of each segment, the target speed for the segment will flash in the display. IMPORTANT: The target speed is intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pedaling speed may be slower than the target speed. Make sure to pedal at a speed 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 programmed for the next segment. The workout will continue in this way until the last segment ends. To stop the workout at any time, stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will stop counting. To restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. 4. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on pages 16 and 17. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. The resistance level for the first segment will appear in the display and the target speed for the first segment will flash in the display for a few seconds. During the workout, the workout profile will show your progress (see the drawing above). The flashing segment of the profile represents the current segment of the workout. The height of the flashing segment indicates the resistance level for the current segment. See step 5 on page 17. 6. Turn on the fan if desired. See step 6 on page 17. 7. When you are finished using the elliptical, the console will turn off automatically. See HOW TO TURN OFF THE CONSOLE on page 16. At the end of each segment of the workout, a series of tones will sound and the next segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a different resistance level and/or target speed is programmed for the next segment, the resistance level and/or target speed will appear in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then change. 18
