Each Smart program will automatically change the

resistance of the pedals and prompt you to increase or

decrease your pace as it guides you through an effec-

tive workout. Programs 1 and 2 are weight loss pro-

grams, programs 3 and 4 are aerobic programs, and

programs 5 and 6 are high-performance programs.

Follow the steps below to use a Smart program. 

Turn on the console.

See step 1 on page 11.

Select one of the Smart programs.

Each time the console is

turned on, the manual

mode will be selected. To

select a Smart program,

press the Program button

repeatedly until the num-

ber 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6

appears in the small dis-

play. 

Begin pedaling to start the program.

To start the program, simply begin pedaling. Each

Smart program consists of 20 or 30 one-minute

periods. One resistance level and one target pace

are programmed for each period. (The same

resistance level and/or target pace may be pro-

grammed for two or more consecutive periods.)

At the end of each period of the program, the

resistance of the pedals will automatically change

if a different resistance level is programmed for

the next period. Note: If the resistance level is too

high or too low, you can change it by pressing the

+ and – buttons below the large display. However,

when the current period is completed, the resis-

tance of the pedals will automatically change if a

different resistance level is programmed for the

next period.

The target pace

for the current

period will be

shown by the

arrows in the

small display. To

pedal at the target

pace, simply

increase or decrease your pace until there is one

arrow pointing to each segment of the indicator

bar (see the drawing above). At the end of each

period, the number of arrows will change if a dif-

ferent target pace is programmed for the next

period. When the number of arrows changes,

change your pace until there is again one arrow

pointing to each segment of the indicator bar.

Important: The target pace is intended only to

provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slow-

er than the target pace, especially during the

first few months of your exercise program.

Make sure to pedal at a pace that is comfort-

able for you. 

During the program, the center of the large dis-

play will show the time remaining in the program.

If you stop pedaling for a few seconds, the dis-

plays will pause and the time will flash. If you

continue pedaling after the program is completed,

the displays will continue to show exercise feed-

back. 

Follow your progress with the large display.

See step 4 on page 11.

Measure your heart rate if desired.

See step 5 on page 12.

Turn on the fan if desired.

See step 6 on page 12.

When you are finished exercising, the console

will automatically turn off.

See step 7 on page 12.
