HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1. Press any button on the console or begin ped-
aling to turn on the console.
When you turn on the console, the displays and
the target pacer coach will light. A tone will then
s
ound and the console will be ready for use.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select one of the four preset workouts, press
the Weight Loss, the Aerobic 1, the Aerobic 2, or
the Performance button on the left side of the con-
sole.
When you select a preset workout, the number of
the workout and the maximum resistance level will
appear in the displays for a few seconds. A profile
of the resistance levels of the workout will also
scroll across the left display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target pace
setting is programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance level and/or target pace set-
ting may be programmed for consecutive seg-
ments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing segment of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
segment indicates the resistance level for the cur-
rent segment. At the end of each segment of the
workout, a series of tones will sound and the next
segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a differ-
ent resistance level is programmed for the next
segment, the resistance level will appear in the
display for a few seconds to alert you. The resis-
tance of the pedals will then change.
During the workout, the target pacer coach will
prompt you to keep your pedaling pace near the
target pace setting for the current segment. When
a
left indicator lights, increase your pace; when a
right indicator lights, decrease your pace. When
t
he center indicator lights, maintain your current
pace. IMPORTANT: The target pacer coach is
intended only to provide a goal. Make sure to
pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
resistance level by pressing the Quick Resistance
buttons. However, when the current segment
ends, the resistance of the pedals will automatical-
ly adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.
If you stop pedaling for several seconds, a series
of tones will sound and the workout will pause. To
restart the workout, simply resume pedaling. The
workout will continue until the last segment of the
workout ends.
