HOW TO USE A CROSS TRAINING PROGRAM

Press the Resistance decrease button or

begin pedaling to turn on the console.

A moment after you turn on the console, the dis-

play will light.

Select one of the five cross training programs.

To select a cross training program, press the

Programs button repeatedly until the name of the

desired cross training program appears in the dis-

play. When a cross training program is selected,

the program time will appear in the display and a

profile of the resistance settings for the program

will scroll across the matrix in the display.

Begin pedaling to start the program.

Each program is divided into 25, 30, or 45 one-

minute segments. One resistance setting and one

target rpm (revolutions per minute) setting are

programmed for most segments. (Note: The same

resistance and/or target rpm setting may be pro-

grammed for two or more consecutive segments.)

During other segments, the console will prompt you

to perform strength exercises.

The resistance setting

for the first segment

will be shown in the

flashing Current

Segment column of

the matrix. The resis-

tance settings for the next several segments will

be shown in the columns to the right. The target

rpm setting will appear in the top of the display.

When only three seconds remain in the first seg-

ment of the program, both the Current Segment

column and the column to the right will flash and

a series of tones will sound. If the resistance

and/or target rpm is about to change, the resis-

tance setting and/or the target rpm setting will

appear in the display to alert you.

When the first segment is completed,

all resis-

tance settings will move one column to the left

.

The resistance setting for the second segment

will then be shown in the flashing Current

Segment column and the resistance of the pedals

will automatically adjust to the setting for the sec-

ond segment. Note: If all the indicators in the

Current Segment column are lit,

the resistance

settings may move downward

so that only the

highest indicators appear in the matrix.

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 display, increase your

pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear

in the display, decrease your pace. When the

words PEDALING IN RANGE appear, maintain

your current pace.

Important: The target rpm settings are intend-

ed only to provide motivation. Your actual

pace may be slower than the target rpm set-

tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is

comfortable for you.

If the resistance setting for the current segment is

too high or too low, you can manually override the

setting by pressing the Resistance decrease or

increase buttons. Every few times you press a

Resistance button, an additional indicator will

appear or disappear in the Current Segment col-

umn; if any of the columns to the right of the

Current Segment column have the same number

of lit indicators as the Current Segment column,

an additional indicator may appear or disappear

in those columns as well.

Important: When the

current segment of the program ends, the ellip-

tical exerciser will automatically adjust to the

resistance setting for the next segment.

To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling.

The time will begin to flash in the display. To

restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
