4. Press
Start.
5. Select the effort level you want by pressing the up or down arrow (if you hold the key
down, the setting will continue to change). This adjusts the entire program up or down.
Pick a setting that gives you a comfortable workout, without causing pain at the hardest
parts of the program. You can adjust the level at any point in your workout-if you feel like
you're straining, lower the level to decrease the effort needed.
While you're pedaling, the console shows your progress and statistics about your
workout. For details about these displays, see the section "The Workout Display," later
in this chapter.
You can change to manual mode, another program, or an advanced feature program, such as
a race, during your workout. Just press the key for the program you want, then follow the
instructions elsewhere in this manual.
If you need to pause during a workout, the cycle will remember your workout information for
about 10 seconds. If you stop for longer than this, the 700C Cycle and 700R Recumbent
Cycle loses the information, and you'll have to start a new workout.
When you finish, you see a workout summary giving the total distance traveled, calories
burned, and more. See "The Workout Display," later in this chapter, for a description.
The Workout Display
During your workout, the 700C Cycle and 700R Recumbent Cycle console keeps you continu-
ously updated about your progress. Three areas of the screen show different types of
information:
• The four Progress Indicators at the top of the console show up to eight categories of
information. At the beginning of a workout the four top categories are shown. Pressing the
Switch Display
button at the right of the fields switches between categories; the lights
over and under each field indicate which information is currently displayed. If you hold
down
Switch Display
for half a second, the fields will alternate between displays every
five seconds.
The top four categories are:
Elapsed Time
How long you've cycled so far.
Calories Burned
The number of calories you've burned in this workout.
RPM
Your current revolutions per minute.
Heart Rate
Your current heart rate in beats per minute. This is available
only if you have the heart rate monitor option.
