HOW TO USE A RESISTANCE & RPM PROGRAM
1. Press the Resistance decrease button or begin
pedaling to turn on the console.
A moment after the console is turned on, the dis-
play will light.
2. Select one of the resistance & rpm programs.
Press the Programs
button repeatedly until
“P 3,” “P 4,” “P 5,” or
“P 6” appears in the
right side of the dis-
play. When a resis-
tance & rpm program
is selected, a profile of the resistance settings of
the program will scroll across the center of the dis-
play. The left side of the display will show how
long the program will last.
3. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into several one-minute
segments. One resistance setting and one pace
setting are programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance setting and/or pace setting
may be programmed for two or more consecutive
segments.
The resistance setting
for the first segment
will be shown in the
flashing Current
Segment column in the
center of the display.
(Note: The pace set-
tings are not shown in the display.) The resistance
settings for the next four segments will be shown in
the columns to the right.
As you exercise, the Pace Coach will prompt you
to keep your pedaling pace near the pace setting
for the current segment. When one of the “Too
Slow” arrows lights, increase your pace. When
one of the “Too Fast” arrows lights, decrease your
pace. When the center indicator lights, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The pace settings are intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual pace may be
slower than the pace settings. 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 resistance set-
tings will move one column to the left.
The resis-
tance setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the flashing Current Segment column,
and the resistance of the pedals will change to the
resistance setting for the second segment. Note: If
all of the indicators in the Current Segment column
are lit after the resistance settings have moved to
the left,
the resistance settings may move down-
ward
so only the highest indicators appear in the
matrix.
The program will continue until the resistance set-
ting for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column and the last segment ends.
Note: During the program, you can override the
resistance setting for the current segment, if
desired, by pressing the increase or decrease but-
ton. However, when the next segment begins, the
resistance will 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.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
See step 4 on page 11.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 12.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 6 on page 12.
7. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 7 on page 12.
