HOW TO USE A PRESET WORKOUT
1. Press any button on the console or begin ped-
aling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select one of the eight preset workouts, press
one of the eight buttons on the right and left side
of the console.
When you select a preset workout, the name of
the workout and the maximum resistance level will
appear in the display for a few seconds. A profile
of the resistance levels of the workout will also
scroll across the left side of the display.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into either 20 or 30 one-
minute segments. One resistance level and one
target pace setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance level and/or tar-
get pace setting may be programmed for consecu-
tive segments.
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 workout target pacer will
prompt you to keep your pedaling speed near the
target pace setting for the current segment. When
a left indicator lights, increase your speed; when a
right indicator lights, decrease your speed. When
the center indicator lights, maintain your current
speed. IMPORTANT: The workout target pacer
is intended only to provide a goal. Make sure
to pedal at a speed 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 Magnetic
Resistance increase or decrease buttons.
However, when the current segment ends, the
resistance of the pedals will automatically adjust to
the resistance level programmed 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.

HOW TO USE THE SOUND SYSTEM

jack on your MP3 player or CD player; make sure
that the audio cable is fully plugged in.

player. Adjust the volume of the speakers using the
