Turn on the console.
Refer to step 1 on page 12.
Select one of the eight Smart programs.
Each time the
console is turned
on, the manual
mode will be
selected. To
select a Smart
program, press
the Program but-
ton repeatedly until the number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
or 8 appears in the upper right corner of the dis-
play.
The profiles numbered 1 through 8 on the con-
sole show the resistance and pace settings for
the Smart programs. For example, profile number
3 shows that when Smart program 3 is selected,
both the resistance and the pace will gradually
increase during the first half of the program, and
then decrease during the last half.
Start the program.
To start the program, simply begin exercising.
Each Smart program consists of 20 one-minute
periods. One resistance setting and one pace set-
ting are programmed for each period. (The same
resistance setting and/or pace setting may be
programmed for consecutive periods.)
During the program, the resistance of the exer-
cise cycle will automatically change as shown by
the applicable profile on the console. If the cur-
rent resistance level is too high or too low, you
can change the resistance level by pressing the +
and – buttons. However, when the current period
of the program is completed, the resistance level
will automatically change if a different resistance
setting is programmed for the next period.
The pace set-
tings for the pro-
gram will be
shown by the
right pace indica-
tor in the display.
(The left pace
indicator will
show your actual exercise pace.) As the right
pace indicator changes during the program, sim-
ply increase or decrease your pace so that the
same number of bars appear on both pace indi-
cators. If your pace is slower than the current
pace setting, the increase arrow will appear in the
display to prompt you to increase your pace; if
your pace is faster than the pace setting, 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 exercise at a pace that is com-
fortable 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
exercising after the program is completed, the
display will continue to show your exercise feed-
back.
Follow your progress with the feedback modes.

will automatically turn off.
