MANUAL MODE AND THE QUICKSTART
TM
KEY
Manual mode lets you set the resistance level. As with other programs, when
you complete the time limit set for the program, the automatic cool-down period
begins.
You can choose Manual mode in two different ways:
• pressing the QuickStart key at the Precor banner. QuickStart bypasses the
remaining selections and starts the Manual program. Default values
include a time limit of 30 minutes (or the custom settings, whichever is less),
150 lbs. (68 kg.) and an age of zero. The SmartRate
®
display is inactive.
• pressing Enter at the Precor banner. This causes the EFX to display several
Setup prompts. At the PROGRAM prompt, select MANL.
The Manual program profile initially appears as a flat line. Use the ▼▲ keys to
adjust the resistance level. (See page 34 for more information.) As you proceed with
your workout, a blinking column represents your position on the program.
HILL CLIMB PROGRAM
For your convenience, the resistance in the Hill Climb program is preset. Review
the display label to ascertain the ascent and descent you’ll be feeling in the pedal
resistance throughout the program. Anytime during the workout, you can override
the resistance settings by pressing the Resistance ▼▲ keys.
INTERVAL PROGRAM
The interval program on the EFX lets you select the rest and work intervals according
to your training regimen. You set the resistance level for first rest and work interval and
the software repeats the intervals throughout the program. At any point during the
workout, you can change the settings of the current interval by simply pressing the
▼▲ keys. The software remembers the new settings and applies it to the appropriate
rest or work interval.
