Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 13.
Select one of the six preset programs.
Each time the
console is turned
on, the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select a preset
program, press
the Program but-
ton repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6
appears in the upper right corner of the display.
The profiles numbered 1 through 6 on the right
side of the console show the resistance and pace
settings for the preset programs.
Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin pedalling.
Each preset program consists of either twenty or
thirty, one-minute periods. One resistance setting
and one pace setting are programmed for each
period. (The same resistance setting and/or pace
setting may be programmed for consecutive peri-
ods.)
During the program, the resistance of the elliptical
crosstrainer will automatically change as shown
by the applicable profile on the console. Note: If
the current resistance level is too high or too low,
you can change the resistance level by pressing
the + or – button. However, when the current peri-
od of the program is completed, the resistance
level will automatically change if a different resis-
tance setting is programmed for the next period.
The target pace
settings for the
program will be
shown by the
right pace indica-
tor in the display.
(The left indicator
will show your
actual pedalling pace.) As the right indicator
changes in height during the program, adjust your
pace so that both indicators are at the same
height. If your pace is slower than the current tar-
get pace, the increase arrow will appear in the
display to prompt you to increase your pace; if
your pace is faster than the target pace, the
decrease arrow will appear.
Important: The pace
settings for the program are intended only to
provide a goal. Your actual pace may be slow-
er than the pace settings, 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 display will show the time
remaining in the program. When no time remains,
the program will be completed. If you continue
pedalling after the program is completed, the dis-
play will continue to show your exercise feedback.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.
See step 4 on page 13.
Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 13.
When you are finished exercising, the console
will automatically turn off.
See step 6 on page 13.

HOW TO USE A PRESET PROGRAM
Increase Arrow
Heart rate program 7 is designed to keep your heart
rate between 65% and 85% of your
maximum heart
rate
during your workout. (Your maximum heart rate is
estimated by subtracting your age from 220. For
example, if you are 25 years old, your maximum heart
rate is 195 beats per minute.) Heart rate program 8 is
designed to keep your heart rate near a target heart
rate that you choose.
Follow the steps below to use a heart rate program.
Turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 13.
Select one of the two heart rate programs.
Each time the
console is
turned on, the
manual mode
will be selected.
To select a heart
rate program,
press the
Program button repeatedly until the number 7 or 8
appears in the upper right corner of the display.
The profiles numbered 7 and 8 on the right side
of the console show the resistance settings for
the heart rate programs.
Enter your age or a target heart rate.
If you selected program 7,
the word AGE and
the current age setting will flash in the display
(see the drawing above). Press the + or – button
repeatedly to enter your age. Once you have
entered your age, your age will be saved in mem-
ory until the batteries are replaced.
If you selected
program 8,
the
letters PLS and
a target heart
rate setting of
70 beats per
minute will flash
in the display.
Press the + or – button repeatedly to change the
target heart rate setting, if desired. The target
heart rate setting can be from 70 to 170 beats per
minute.
Hold the handgrip pulse sensor or put on the
optional chest pulse sensor.
To use a heart rate program, you must use the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest
pulse sensor. If you use the handgrip pulse sen-
sor, it is not necessary to hold the handgrips con-
tinuously during the program. However, you should
hold the handgrips frequently for the program to
operate properly.
Each time you hold the hand-
grips, keep your hands on the metal contacts
for at least 30 seconds.
Note: When you are not
holding the handgrips, the letters PLS will appear
in the display instead of your heart rate.
Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin pedalling.
Program 7
consists of twenty, one-minute peri-
ods. One resistance setting and one heart rate
setting are programmed for each period. (The
same resistance setting and/or heart rate setting
may be programmed for consecutive periods.)
Program 8
is sixty minutes long (you may choose
to use only part of the program). The same resis-
tance setting and target heart rate setting are pro-
grammed for the entire program.
If program 7 is selected,
the resistance of the
elliptical crosstrainer will automatically change as
shown by profile 7 on the console. (Note: If the
current resistance level is too high or too low, you
can adjust the resistance level by pressing the +
or – button. However, when the current period of
the program is completed, the resistance level will
automatically change if a different resistance set-
ting is programmed for the next period.)
If pro-
gram 8 is selected,
the resistance setting will not
change unless the target heart rate setting is
changed. Pressing the + and – buttons will
change the target heart rate setting.
As you pedal, the
pace indicators
will help you to
keep your heart
rate near the tar-
get current heart
rate. The left
indicator will
show your actual pedalling pace. The right indica-
tor will show a target pace. When you hold the
handgrip pulse sensor or wear the optional chest
pulse sensor, the console will compare your heart
rate to the current target heart rate. If necessary,
the right indicator will then change in height to
