HOW TO USE RESISTANCE AND PACE
PROGRAMS
Begin pedaling to activate the console.
See step 1 on page 10.
Select one of the six resistance and pace
programs.
When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected. To
select a resistance
and pace program,
press the Program
Select button repeatedly until a “P 1,” “P 2,” “P 3,”
“P 4,” “P 5,” or “P 6” appears in the right display.
When a resistance and pace program is selected,
the matrix will show the first seven pace settings
for the program. The left display will show how
long the program will last.
Press the Program Start button or begin
pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into several time seg-
ments of different lengths. One pace setting and
one resistance setting are programmed for each
segment. (The same pace setting and/or resis-
tance setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive segments.)
The pace setting
for the first seg-
ment will be
shown in the flash-
ing Current
Segment column
of the matrix. (The
resistance settings
are not shown in the matrix.) The pace settings
for the next several segments will be shown in the
columns to the right.
As you exercise, the Training Zone bar will help
you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace
setting for the current segment. The lit indicators
in the bar will show
your actual pace. If
an indicator to the
right of the lit indi-
cators is flashing
(see drawing a),
increase your pace.
If an indicator to
the left of any lit
indicator is flashing
(see drawing b),
decrease your
pace. When no
indicator is flashing, your pace matches the pace
setting for the current segment.
Important: The
pace settings are intended only to provide
motivation. Your actual pace may be slower
than the current pace setting. Make sure to
exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
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, a
series of tones will sound, and all pace settings
will move one column to the left. The pace setting
for the second segment will then be shown in the
flashing Current Segment column and the resis-
tance of the exercise cycle will automatically
change to the resistance setting for the second
segment.
Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment
column are lit after the pace settings have moved
to the left, the pace settings will move downward
so only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.
The program will continue until the pace setting
for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column and no time remains in the pro-
gram.
Note: During the program, you can override the
resistance setting for the current segment, if
desired, with the Resistance buttons. However,
when the next segment begins, the resistance will
automatically change if a different resistance set-
ting is programmed for the next segment. If you
stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will
sound and the program will pause. To restart the
program, simply resume pedaling.
