Precor EFX534i - Manual (Page 75)

Manual Program
The Manual Program profile, available by pressing the MANUAL
key, begins as a flat line. You control incline and speed using the
INCLINE or SPEED keys. The program profile reflects any changes.
The blinking column indicates your position in the program.
A cool-down period occurs automatically when you end your
workout. An exception to the cool-down period exists if the fitness
facility allows it. Refer to Cooling Down After a Workout for more
information.
Note: To use the SmartRate feature, you need to specify your age
by accessing the Manual Program through the PROGRAMS key
and answering the age prompt. If you use QUICKSTART to access
the Manual Program, your age has a zero or null value so the
SmartRate feature is not available.
Interval Program
The Interval Program, available by pressing the INTERVAL key,
helps in conditioning your cardiovascular system. The program
raises and lowers your level of exertion repeatedly for the specified
period of time. The program lets you choose the rest and work
intervals according to your training regimen.
While exercising, you can vary the speed and change the preset
incline using the INCLINE or SPEED keys. The settings are
repeated throughout the remainder of the program.
Initially, the rest interval is set to 0% grade and 1 mph or 1 kph. The
work interval is set at a 3% grade and the speed remains at 1 mph
or 1 kph.
Note: Incline changes are limited to +/ 5% grade variance from
the previous incline level. -
The display lets you know when the speed or incline levels are
about to change and indicates the levels of the next interval.
