• After printing out the conditions, the LCD changes as in the

drawing.

• The initial workload (pedal torque) is indicated in blinking dot in

the graphic section of the LCD. One dot along the horizontal axis
indicates 30 seconds, and one along the vertical axis 0.5 kg·m. At
every 30 seconds, the row of dots will increase by one towards the
right of the graphic section, with the last row blinking.

• For the 3 minutes warming up time after starting exercise,

pedal resistance will gradually increase and

WARM

mark ap-

pears on the panel.

Note: During the warm up, the pedal resistance is increased so as to

reach the set wattage in 3 minutes provided you pedal at 50 rpm. If
you pedal faster than 50 rpm and reach the set wattage earlier than
3 minutes, the warm up is finished at that moment.

Remark: If you first press the

MODE

button, and holding it down

press the

ADV

button to start the program, instead of just press-

ing the

ADV

button, you can skip the warm up phase and start

the exercise at the preset wattage from the scratch.

Start Program

• After setting your conditions, adapt the earlobe pulse sensor

and depress

ADV

button to start program.

• Input age, pulse limit, exercise time and set wattage. The initial

display prior to input is as in the drawing. The numeric for age is
blinking.

• The pitch sound to adjust your cadence at 60 rpm (rings every

half second) is set "OFF".

• There is no graphic display yet in the LCD.

• You can increase or decrease the blinking numeric by pressing

the

buttons.

• Press the

MODE

button to change the blinking numeric.

• After the

WARM

symbol goes out, the pedal resistance (torque

kg·m) increases or decreases according to the pedal cadence.
During exercise the pedal resistance (torque: kg·m) changes in
0.1 kg·m units to maintain the set value for wattage.

• Target wattage can be changed during exercise by pressing

either

or

button. The new target wattage will be dis-

played for 2 seconds in place of the current wattage.

Note: For calculation purposes, pedal cadence under 40 rpm is

regarded as 40 rpm, and pedal cadence over 100 rpm is re-
garded as 100 rpm.

Remarks:

The graphic section will display the torque pattern for

maximum 16 minutes. At the end of the 16 minutes period, the
torque pattern once disappear and the actual torque at that mo-
ment will be displayed flashing at the left end of the section.

• If the 5 minute cool down phase has elapsed or if you press the

ADV

button, the buzzer sounds and the program ends. The

calorie consumption is printed out, and the LCD returns to the
initial screen.

• If you are completely finishing the exercise, be sure to switch off

the unit.

• The buzzer sounds at the specified time.

• If you press the

ADV

button, the program enters a 5 minute

cool down phase and the

COOL

symbol lights up. Then the

pedal resistance becomes the minimum of 0.5 kg·m.

Note: Even if the buzzer sounds, the program does not enter

the cool down phase unless you press the

ADV

button.

• The LCD still displays the same exercise data.
