HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
1. Press any button on the console or begin ped-
aling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 11.
2. Select a preset program.
To select one of the six weight loss programs,
press the Weight Loss Programs button repeated-
ly; to select one of the six aerobic fitness pro-
grams, press the Aerobic Fitness Programs but-
ton; to select one of the six competition programs,
press the Competition Programs button.
When you select a preset program, the name of
the program will appear in the display for a few
seconds. A profile of the resistance settings of the
program will then appear in the display. The dis-
play will also show the first resistance setting for
the program for a few seconds.
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 pace setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or tar-
get pace setting may be programmed for two or
more consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing column of the profile represents the current
segment of the program. The height of the flash-
ing column indicates the resistance setting for the
current segment. At the end of each segment of
the program, a series of tones will sound and the
next segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a
different resistance setting is programmed for the
next segment, the resistance setting will appear in
the display for a few seconds to alert you. The
resistance of the pedals will then change.
As you exercise, you
will be prompted to
keep your pedaling
pace near the target
pace setting for the cur-
rent segment. When an
upward-pointing arrow appears in the display,
increase your pace. When a downward-pointing
arrow appears, decrease your pace. When no
arrow appears, maintain your current pace.
Important: The target pace settings are intend-
ed only to provide motivation. Make sure to
pedal 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 OneTouch Resistance but-
tons. However, when the current segment ends,
the pedals will automatically adjust to the resis-
tance setting for the next segment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the program will pause. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling. The
program will continue until the last segment of the
profile flashes and the last segment of the pro-
gram ends.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
During the program, the display will show the pro-
gram profile, your pedaling speed, and the dis-
tance that you have pedaled.
To view the time remaining in the program instead
of the program profile, press the Display button.
To view the approximate number of calories that
you are burning per hour and the approximate
number of calories that you have burned during
your workout, press the Display button again.
To view the program profile again, press the
Display button again.
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.
