HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
1.
Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
A moment after you begin pedaling or press a
button, the screen will light.
2.
Select a preset program.
To select one of the 20 preset programs, press
the Aerobic Performance button, the Aerobic
Fitness button, or the Weight Loss button repeat-
edly until the desired program appears on the
screen.
When a pre-
set program
is selected, a
diagram of
the resistance
settings for
the program
will appear on the screen. The arrow below the
diagram will indicate your progress during the
program. In addition, the screen will show the
total program time, the maximum pace setting for
the program, and the maximum resistance setting
for the program.
3.
Press the Start button or begin pedaling to
start the program.
Each program is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance level and one
target pace setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance and/or target
pace setting may be programmed for consecutive
segments. The resistance level for the current
segment will be indicated by the height of the dia-
gram above the arrow.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, a series of tones will sound.
If the resistance is about to change, the resis-
tance level will appear on the screen to alert you.
When the first segment ends, the arrow below the
diagram will move one position to the right.
The pedals will then automatically adjust to the
resistance level for the second segment.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling pace near the target pace setting
for the current segment. When the color of the
RPM display on the screen is white or blue,
increase your pace. When the RPM display is yel-
low or pink, decrease your pace. When the RPM
display is green, maintain your current pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intend-
ed only to provide motivation. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target pace set-
ting. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the OneTouch Resistance but-
tons. However, when the current segment of the
program ends, the pedals will automatically adjust
to the resistance level for the next segment.
The program will continue in this way until the
arrow reaches the right end of the diagram. To
stop the program at any time, stop pedaling. A
tone will sound and the time will flash in the dis-
play to indicate that the program is paused. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
