Each preset 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.
Follow the steps below to use a preset program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
Select a preset program.
To select a preset
program, press
the Program
(PGM) button
repeatedly until
“P-3,” “P-4,” “P-5,”
“P-6,” “P-7,” “P-8,” “P-9,” or “P-10” appears in the
upper section of the display.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
To start the program, simply begin pedalling. Each
preset program consists of 20 or 30 one-minute
periods. One resistance level and one target pace
are programmed for each period. Note: 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 time
will flash in the centre display and a series of
tones will sound. In addition, the resistance of the
pedals will automatically change if a different
resistance level is programmed for the next peri-
od. Note: If the resistance level is too high or too
low, you can change it by pressing the Resistance
+ and – buttons. However, when the current peri-
od ends, the resistance of the pedals will auto-
matically change if a different resistance level is
programmed for the next period.
As you exercise,
the pace display
will help you to
keep your ped-
alling pace near
the target pace
setting for the cur-
rent period. When
one of the “too slow” indicators lights, increase
your pace. When one of the “too fast” indicators
lights, decrease your pace. When the centre indi-
cator lights, 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-
tings. Make sure to exercise at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
During the program, the centre of the display will
show the time remaining in the program. If you
stop pedalling for a few seconds, the display will
pause and the time will flash. If you continue ped-
alling after the program is completed, the display
will continue to show exercise feedback.
Monitor your progress with the display.
See step 5 on page 12.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 6 on page 13.
Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 7 on page 13.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 8 on page 13.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
HOW TO USE THE PULSE PROGRAM
Pulse program 1 is designed to keep your heart rate
within a preset range during your workout. Pulse pro-
gram 2 is designed to keep your heart rate near a tar-
get heart rate setting that you select.
Follow the steps below to use a pulse program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
Select a pulse program.
To select a pulse
program, press
the Program
(PGM) button
repeatedly until
“P-1” or “P-2”
appears in the upper section of the display.
Enter your age or a target heart rate setting.
If pulse program
1 is selected, the
word “AGE” will
flash in the lower
section of the dis-
play and an age
setting will appear. If you have already entered
your age, press the button with the heart symbol.
If you have not entered your age, press the small
+ and – buttons to enter your age, and then press
the button with the heart symbol. Note: Once you
have entered your age, it will be saved in memory.
If pulse program
2 is selected, the
word “RATE” will
flash in the lower
section of the dis-
play and a target
heart rate setting will appear. Press the small +
and – buttons to change the target heart rate set-
ting if desired (see EXERCISE INTENSITY on
page 22). Then, press the button with the heart
symbol.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse
sensor continuously during a pulse program;
however, you must hold the handgrip pulse
sensor frequently for the program to function
properly. Each time you hold the handgrip
pulse sensor, keep your hands on the metal
contacts for at least 30 seconds. Note: When
you are not holding the handgrip pulse sensor,
the letters “PLS” will appear in the display instead
of your heart rate.
Begin pedalling to start the program.
Pulse program 1 is divided into 30 one-minute
periods. One target heart rate setting is pro-
grammed for each period. (The same target heart
rate setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive periods.) Pulse program 2 is divided
into 60 one-minute periods (you may choose to
use only part of the program). The same target
heart rate setting is programmed for all periods.
During the program, the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current period. If your heart rate is
too far below or above the target heart rate set-
ting, the resistance of the pedals will automatically
increase or decrease to bring your heart rate clos-
er to the target heart rate setting. Note: If the
resistance level is too high or too low, you can
override it by pressing the Resistance buttons.
However, when the console compares your heart
rate to the target heart rate setting, the resistance
may automatically change.
After the first one-
minute period
ends, the pace
display will help
you to maintain a
steady pedalling
pace. When one
of the “too slow”
indicators lights, increase your pace. When one
of the “too fast” indicators lights, decrease your
pace. When the centre indicator lights, maintain
your current pace.
Important: The pace display is intended only
to provide a goal. Make sure to pedal at a
pace that is comfortable for you.
