HOW TO USE A WATTS WORKOUT
1. Begin pedaling or press any button on the
console to turn on the console.
See HOW TO TURN ON THE POWER on page
16.
2. Select a watts workout.
To select a watts workout, first press the Watts
Workouts button. Next, turn the resistance dial
until the number of the desired workout appears in
the display. Then, press the Enter button to select
the workout.
If you select
watts workout
1,
the workout
time and the
words ENTER
WATTS TAR-
GET will
appear in the
display.
If you select
watts workout
2 or 3,
the
workout time
and a profile of
the resistance
levels for the
workout will
appear in the
display.
3. If you selected watts workout 1, enter a target
watts setting.
During watts workout 1, the same target watts set-
ting will be programmed for all segments of the
workout. Turn the resistance dial to enter the
desired target watts setting.
4. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Watts workout 1
is divided into 40 one-minute
segments. During the workout, the console will
regularly compare your watts output to the target
watts setting you entered for the workout.
If your watts output is too far below or above the
target watts setting, the resistance of the pedals
will automatically increase or decrease to bring
your watts output closer to the target watts setting.
Each time the resistance changes, the resistance
level will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.
Watts workout 2 or 3
is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. One resistance level and one
target watts level are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance level and/or
target watts level may be programmed for consec-
utive segments.
The workout profile will show your progress (see
the drawing at the left). The flashing segment of
the profile represents the current segment of the
workout. The height of the flashing segment indi-
cates the resistance level for the current segment.
As you exercise, you will be prompted to pedal at
a target speed. When an upward arrow or the
word FASTER appears in the display, increase
your speed. When a downward arrow or the word
SLOWER appears, decrease your speed. When
no arrow appears or the words ON TARGET
appear, maintain your current speed.
IMPORTANT: The target speed is intended only
to provide motivation. Your actual speed may
be slower than the target speed. Make sure to
pedal at a speed that is comfortable for you.
When the first segment of the workout ends, the
resistance level and the target speed for the sec-
ond segment will appear in the display for a few
seconds to alert you. The next segment of the pro-
file will begin to flash, and the pedals will
automatically adjust to the resistance level for the
next segment.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by turning the resistance dial.
IMPOR-
TANT: When the current segment of the
workout ends, the pedals will automatically
adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.
To stop a workout at any time, stop pedaling. A
tone will sound and the time will begin to flash in
the display. To restart the workout, simply resume
pedaling.
