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 16.
2. Select a preset workout.
To select one of the six weight loss workouts,
press the Weight Loss button repeatedly; to select
one of the six aerobic workouts, press the Aerobic
button; to select one of the six competition work-
outs, press the Competition button.
When you select a preset workout, the name of
the workout will appear in the display for a few
seconds. A profile of the resistance settings of the
workout will then appear in the display. The display
will also show the first resistance setting for the
workout for a few seconds.
3. Begin pedaling to start the workout.
Each workout is divided into 20, 30, or 45 one-
minute segments. One resistance level and one
target pace setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance level and/or target
pace setting may be programmed for consecutive
segments.
During the workout, the workout profile will show
your progress (see the drawing above). The flash-
ing column of the profile represents the current
segment of the workout. The height of the flashing
column 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.
As you exercise, you
will be prompted to
keep your pedaling
pace near the target
pace setting for the cur-
rent segment. When an
upward-pointing arrow appears in the display,
increase your pace. When a downward-pointing
arrow appears, decrease your pace. When no
arrow appears, maintain your current pace.
IMPORTANT: The target pace settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Make sure
to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
If the resistance level for the current segment is
too high or too low, you can manually override the
setting by pressing the 1 Step Resistance buttons.
However, when the current segment ends, the ped-
als will automatically adjust to the resistance level
for the next segment.
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
profile flashes and the last segment of the workout
ends.
4. Follow your progress with the display.
During the workout, the display will show the work-
out profile, your pedaling speed, and the distance
that you have pedaled.
To view the time remaining in the workout, your
pedaling speed, and the distance you have ped-
aled instead of the workout profile, press the
Display button.
To view the approximate number of calories that
you are burning per hour and the approximate
number of calories that you have burned during
your workout, press the Display button again.
To view the workout profile again, press the Display
button again.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 17.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 6 on page 17.
7. When you are finished exercising, the console
will turn off automatically.
See step 7 on page 17.
