HOW TO USE PERSONAL TRAINER PROGRAMS
1.
Begin pedaling to activate the console.
See step 1 on page 15.
2.
Select one of the 15 personal trainer
programs.
When the power is turned on, the manual mode
will be selected. To select a personal trainer pro-
gram, repeatedly press the Program Select but-
ton until the name of the desired program
appears in the main display.
The matrix will show the first eight resistance set-
tings of the program you have selected.
3.
Begin pedaling to start the program.
Each program is
divided into several
time segments of dif-
ferent lengths. (The
main display will
show both the time
remaining in the pro-
gram and the time remaining in the current seg-
ment of the program.) One resistance setting and
one pace setting are programmed for each seg-
ment. (The same resistance setting and/or pace
setting may be programmed for two or more con-
secutive segments.)
The resistance set-
ting for the first seg-
ment will be shown in
the flashing Current
Segment column of
the matrix. (The pace
settings are not
shown in the matrix.) The resistance settings for
the next several segments will be shown in the
columns to the right.
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 resistance set-
tings will move one column to the left.
The resis-
tance setting for the second segment will then be
shown in the flashing Current Segment column,
and the resistance of the pedals will automatical-
ly change if a different resistance setting is pro-
grammed for the second segment.
As you exercise, the
Training Zone bar will
help you to keep your
pedaling pace near
the pace setting for
the current segment.
The lit indicators in
the bar will show your
actual pace. If an
indicator to the
right
of the lit indicators 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.
IMPOR-
TANT: 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.
The program will continue in this way until the
main display shows that 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 different
resistance setting is programmed for the next
segment. If you stop pedaling for several sec-
onds, a tone will sound and the program will
pause. To restart the program, simply resume
pedaling.
4. Monitor your progress with the main display.
See step 4 on page 15.
5. Measure your heart rate if desired.
See step 5 on page 16.
6. Turn on the fan if desired.
See step 6 on page 16.
7. When the program is finished, the console will
automatically turn off.
See step 7 on page 16.
