DIAGRAM OF THE CONSOLE
DESCRIPTION OF THE CONSOLE
The innovative console offers a manual mode and
three pacer programs. The pacer programs are
designed to help you achieve your exercise goals by
pacing your exercise. The programs include a stamina-
building Interval program, an Aerobic program, and a
special Fat Burn program. Whether you select the
manual mode or one of the pacer programs, the
console will provide continuous exercise feedback
during your workouts.
HOW THE PACER PROGRAMS OPERATE
When you use a
pacer program, two
columns of bars will
appear in the dis-
play. The left col-
umn will show a tar-
get pace; the right
column will show
your actual pace.
The target pace will
change periodically during the program; as the target
pace changes, simply adjust your pace to keep both
columns at the same height.
Important: The target
pace is a
goal
pace. Your actual pace may be slow-
er than the target pace, especially during the first
few months of your exercise program. Be sure to
exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
The graphs on the left side of the console show how
the target pace will change during the programs (see
the drawing above). Each graph is divided into ten
columns, with six bars in each column. The columns
represent two-minute time periods, and the red bars
show what the target pace will be. In the first column of
the Fat Burn graph, for example, there is one red bar.
This shows that during the first two minutes of the Fat
Burn program, the target pace will be 40 repetitions
(strides) per minute (see the scale at the right end of
the graph). In the second column there are five red
bars. This shows that during the second two-minute
time period, the target pace will be 80 strides per
minute. Note: Because there are ten two-minute peri-
ods, each program will last for twenty minutes.
DESCRIPTION OF THE MONITOR MODES
The six monitor modes provide continuous exercise
feedback. The modes are described below.
¥ Reps per minute (REPS MIN)ÑThis mode shows
your pace, in repetitions (strides) per minute.
¥ TimeÑIf you select one of the three pacer pro-
grams, this mode will count down the time remain-
ing in the program. If you select the manual mode,
this mode will count up the length of time you have
exercised. Note: If you stop exercising for ten sec-
onds or longer, the time mode will pause.

Note: If there is a thin sheet of clear plastic on the
face of the console, remove it.
