OPERATION ■ Changing Levels You can only increase or decrease the resistance level by pressing the UP or DOWN buttons when in the first interval column, which is the warm-up column. This enables you to set your starting warm-up level. A longer warm-up at lower resistance can burn more calories than a shorter warm-up at higher resistance. After the program exits the first interval warm-up column, the UP and DOWN buttons become inoperative, and the program automatically adjusts the resistance to bring you into your selected zone. The program is designed to slowly bring you up to your selected heart rate workout zone, hold you within that zone by reading your heart rate, and adjust the level of resistance to keep your workout within that zone. The program then slowly brings you down into a cool-down zone at the end of the program by reducing the resistance level in the last two columns. As a precaution, if your heart rate is above your selected heart rate zone and the resistance level is at the minimum level for 30 seconds, the message "SLOW DOWN" will appear in the alphanumeric display. If after one more minute your heart rate is still above your selected heart rate zone, the message "STOP" will display and the program will end. ■ Stop or Pause the Program 1 Press the START/PAUSE button to stop or pause your workout. The display will show "PRESS RESULT OR PRESS START." 2 To stop the program, press the RESULTS button; the computer will show your workout results and end the program. 3 To pause the program, press START/PAUSE; the computer will resume the program where you left off. CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN FOR THE HEART RATE ZONE APPROPRIATE FOR YOU.
