HOW TO USE PRESET PROGRAMS
Make sure that the power cord is plugged in
Refer to page 9.
Press any button on the console or move the
pedals to turn on the power
Refer to step 2 on page 10.
Select one of the five preset programs
When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected and
the manual indica-
tor will light. To
select a preset
program, press
the SELECT WORKOUT button repeatedly until
one of the five preset program indicators lights.
The graphs below show how the resistance will
change during the five preset programs. (The
ramp angle will also change during the programs;
however, the ramp angle settings are not shown
on the graphs.) Note: When a program is select-
ed, the program display will show a simplified
graph of the program.
Press the START PROGRAM button and begin
exercising
Each program is divided into several individual
time periods. Each period is one, two, three, or
four minutes long. One resistance setting and one
ramp angle setting are programmed for each
period. The resistance setting for the first period
will be shown in the flashing Current Period col-
umn of the program display. The resistance set-
tings for the next
four periods will be
shown in the four
columns to the
right. (The ramp
angle settings are
not shown in the
program display.)
When only three seconds remain in the first period
of the program, both the Current Period column
and the column to the right will flash, a series of
tones will sound, and all resistance settings will
move one column to the left. The resistance set-
ting for the second period will then be shown in
the flashing Current Period column and the resis-
tance of the pedals and the angle of the ramp will
automatically adjust to the second settings. The
program will continue in this way until the resis-
tance setting for the last period is shown in the
Current Period column and the last period ends.
Note: Each time a period ends and the resistance
settings move to the left, if all of the indicators in
the Current Period column are lit, the resistance
settings may move downward so that only the
highest indicators in the columns will be shown in
the program display. When the resistance settings
move to the left again and not all of the indicators
in the Current Period column are lit, the resistance
settings will move back up.
Note: You can manually override the resistance
setting or the ramp angle setting for the current
period, if desired, by pressing the RESISTANCE
or RAMP ANGLE buttons. However, when the
next period of the program begins, the resis-
tance of the pedals and the angle of the ramp
will automatically adjust to the settings for the
next period.
Note: If you stop exercising for six seconds or
longer, the program will pause and the left LED
display will begin to flash. To restart the program,
simply resume exercising.
Watch your progress with the training zone
display and the LED displays
Refer to step 6 on page 11.
Measure your heart rate, if desired
Refer to step 7 on page 11.
When the program is finished, turn off the
power
Refer to step 8 on page 12.
