HOW TO USE A CALORIE GOAL WORKOUT 1. Turn on the console. See step 1 on page 13. 2. Select a calorie goal workout. Press the Workout button repeatedly until the name of the desired calorie goal workout appears in the upper display. When you select a calorie goal workout, the name of the workout and the workout time will appear in the displays and a profile of the resistance levels of the workout will scroll across the center display. As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep your pedaling pace near the target rpm setting for the current segment. When the words PEDAL FASTER appear in the upper display or the GO FASTER indicator on the pace guide is lit, increase your pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear or the GO SLOWER indicator is lit, decrease your pace. When the words PEDALING IN RANGE appear or when the center indicator is lit, maintain your current pace. Profile 3. Begin pedaling to start the workout. Each workout is divided into 25, 30, or 45 oneminute segments. One resistance level and one target rpm (revolutions per minute) setting are programmed for each segment. Note: The same resistance level and/or target rpm setting may be programmed for consecutive segments. 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. 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 is programmed for the next segment, the resistance level will flash in the display for a few seconds to alert you. The resistance of the pedals will then change. IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are intended only to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be slower than the target rpm settings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you. Note: If you manually override the resistance settings of a calorie goal workout, you may not reach your calorie goal. If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The workout will continue until the last segment of the profile flashes and the last segment of the workout ends. When the last segment of the workout ends, the words PROGRAM DONE will appear in the upper display. 4. Follow your progress with the displays. See step 4 on page 13. 5. Measure your heart rate if desired. See step 5 on page 14. 6. Turn on the fan if desired. See step 6 on page 14. 7. When you are finished exercising, the console will turn off automatically. See step 7 on page 14. 15
