HOW TO USE A HEART RATE PROGRAM
1. Press any button on the console or begin
pedaling to turn on the console.
See step 1 on page 15.
2. Select a heart rate program.
To select one of the heart rate programs, press the
Heart Rate 1 or the Heart Rate 2 button on the left
side of the console.
3. Enter a target heart rate setting.
A few seconds after you
select a heart rate pro-
gram, the target heart
rate setting for the pro-
gram will flash in the
lower right display.
During heart rate program 1,
the same target
heart rate setting will be programmed for all seg-
ments of the program. If you have selected heart
rate program 1, press the increase and decrease
buttons above the Heart Rate Program buttons to
enter the desired target heart rate setting (see
EXERCISE INTENSITY on page 21).
During heart rate program 2,
different target
heart rate settings will be programmed for different
segments of the program. If you have selected
heart rate program 2, press the increase and
decrease buttons above the Heart Rate Program
buttons to enter the desired maximum target heart
rate setting for the program (see EXERCISE
INTENSITY on page 21).
4. Hold the handgrip pulse sensor.
It is not necessary to hold the handgrip pulse sen-
sor continuously during heart rate programs; how-
ever, you should hold the handgrip pulse sensor
frequently for the programs to operate properly.
Each time you hold the handgrip pulse sensor,
keep your hands on the metal contacts for at
least 30 seconds.
5. Begin pedaling to start the program.
Heart rate program 1
is divided into 40 one-
minute segments. Note: For a shorter workout,
stop exercising or select a different program
before the program ends.
Heart rate program 2
is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One target heart rate setting is
programmed for each segment. Note: The same
target heart rate setting may be programmed for
consecutive segments.
During the program, the program profile in the dis-
play will show your progress. The flashing seg-
ment of the profile represents the current segment
of the program. The height of the flashing segment
indicates the target heart rate setting for the cur-
rent segment. At the end of each segment of the
program, a series of tones will sound and the next
segment of the profile will begin to flash.
During both programs,
the console will regularly
compare your heart rate to the target heart rate
setting for the current segment of the program. If
your heart rate is too far below or above the target
heart rate setting, the resistance of the pedals will
automatically increase or decrease to bring your
heart rate closer to the target heart rate setting.
Each time the resistance changes, the resistance
level will appear in the display for a few seconds
to alert you.
