HOW TO USE RESISTANCE AND PACE
PROGRAMS
Press any button on the console or begin
pedaling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 12.
Select one of the six resistance and pace
programs.
When the power is
turned on, the
manual mode will
be selected. To
select a resistance
and pace program,
press the Program
Select button repeatedly until a “P 1,” “P 2,” “P 3,”
“P 4,” “P 5,” or “P 6” appears in the right display.
When a resistance and pace program is selected,
the matrix will show the first seven pace settings
for the program. The left display will show how
long the program will last.
Press the Program Start button or begin
pedaling to start the program.
Each program is divided into several time seg-
ments of different lengths. One pace setting and
one resistance setting are programmed for each
segment. (The same pace setting and/or resis-
tance setting may be programmed for two or more
consecutive segments.)
The pace setting
for the first seg-
ment will be
shown in the flash-
ing Current
Segment column
of the matrix. (The
resistance settings
are not shown in the matrix.) The pace settings
for the next several segments
will be shown in the
columns to the right.
As you exercise, the
Training Zone bar will help
you to keep your pedaling pace near the pace
setting for the cur-
rent segment. The
lit indicators in the
bar will show your
actual pace. If an
indicator to the
right of the lit indi-
cators is flashing
(see drawing a),
increase your pace.
If an indicator to
the left of any lit
indicator is flashing
(see drawing b), decrease your pace. When no
indicator is flashing, your pace matches the pace
setting for the current segment. Important: The
pace settings are intended only to provide
motivation. Your actual pace may be slower
than the current pace setting. Make sure to
exercise at a pace that is comfortable for you.
When only three seconds remain in the first seg-
ment of the program, both the Current Segment
column and the column to the right will flash, a
series of tones will sound, and all pace settings
will move one column to the left. The pace setting
for the second segment will then be shown in the
flashing Current Segment column and the resis-
tance of the elliptical exerciser will automatically
change to the resistance setting for the second
segment.
Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment
column are lit after the pace settings have moved
to the left, the pace settings will move downward
so only the highest indicators appear in the matrix.
The program will continue until the pace setting
for the last segment is shown in the Current
Segment column of the matrix and no time
remains in the program.
Note: During the program, you can override the
resistance setting for the current segment, if
desired, by pressing the Resistance buttons.
However
, when the next segment begins, the
resistance will automatically change if a dif
ferent
resistance is programmed for the next segment. If
you stop pedaling for several seconds, a tone will
sound and the program will pause.
T
o restart the
program, simply resume pedaling.
