HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM Each preset program will automatically change the resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or decrease your pace as it guides you through an effective workout. Programs 1 and 2 are beginning programs, programs 3 and 4 are intermediate programs, and programs 5 and 6 are advanced programs. Follow the steps below to use a preset program. Turn on the console. See step 1 on page 9. Select a preset program. To select a preset program, press the Program (PGM) button repeatedly until "P-1," "P-2," "P-3," "P-4," "P-5," or "P-6" appears in the display. Begin pedalling to start the program. To start the program, simply begin pedalling. Each preset program consists of 20, 30, or 45 one-minute periods. One resistance level and one target pace are programmed for each period. Note: The same resistance level and/or target pace may be programmed for two or more consecutive periods. At the end of each period of the program, the time will flash in the centre section of the display and the resistance of the pedals will automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next period. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too low, you can change it by pressing the + and - buttons below the display. However, when the current period is completed, the resistance of the pedals will automatically change if a different resistance level is programmed for the next period. As you exercise, the pace display will help you to keep your pedalling pace near the target pace setting for the current period. When one of the "too slow" indicators lights, increase your pace. When one of the "too fast" indicators lights, decrease your pace. When the centre indicator lights, maintain your current pace. Important: The target pace settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the target pace settings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you. During the program, the centre of the display will show the time remaining in the program. If you stop pedalling for a few seconds, the displays will pause and the time will flash. If you continue pedalling after the program is completed, the displays will continue to show exercise feedback. Follow your progress with the display. See step 4 on page 10. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 10. When you are finished exercising, the console will automatically turn off. See step 6 on page 10. 11
