HOW TO USE A SMART PROGRAM
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the con-
sole to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a but-
ton, the display will light.
2. Select a smart program.
To select one of
the three smart
programs, press
the Certified
Personal Trainer
Programs button
repeatedly until
Program 1, 2, or 3
appears in the display. The program time and a
profile of the resistance settings for the program
will also appear in the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance setting and one
target rpm (pace) setting are programmed for each
segment. Note: The same resistance and/or target
rpm setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive segments.
The resistance setting and the target rpm for the
first segment will appear in the center of the dis-
play for a few seconds. The resistance setting will
then be indicated by the height of the flashing col-
umn of the profile in the display. The resistance
settings for the next several segments will be indi-
cated by the heights of the columns to the right of
the flashing column.
When the first segment of the program ends, the
resistance setting and the target rpm for the sec-
ond segment will appear in the center of the dis-
play for a few seconds to alert you. The entire pro-
file will then shift one column to the left, and the
pedals will automatically adjust to the resistance
setting for the second segment.
As you exercise,
you will be prompt-
ed to keep your
pedaling pace near
the target rpm set-
ting for the current
segment. When an
upward arrow appears in the display, increase
your pace. When a downward arrow appears in
the display, decrease your pace. When no arrows
appear, maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your actu-
al pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
If the resistance setting for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the Quick Resistance buttons.
IMPORTANT: When the current segment of the
program ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance setting for the next
segment.
The program will continue in this way until the last
segment ends. To stop the program at any time,
stop pedaling. A tone will sound and the time will
begin to flash in the display. To restart the pro-
gram, simply resume pedaling.

will turn off automatically.
