HOW TO USE A TRAINER PROGRAM

Press any button or begin pedaling to turn on
the console.

A moment after you turn on the console, the dis-
play will light.

Select a trainer program.

Press the Program button repeatedly until the
words TRAINER 1, TRAINER 2, or TRAINER 3
appear in the display. When you select a trainer
program, the program time will appear in the dis-
play and a profile of the resistance levels for the
program will scroll across the center of the display.

Begin pedaling to start the program.

Each program is divided into 30 one-minute seg-
ments. One resistance level and one target speed
setting are programmed for each segment. Note:
The same resistance level and/or target speed set-
ting may be programmed for two or more consecu-
tive segments. 

The resistance level for
the first segment will be
shown in the flashing
Current Segment col-
umn of the profile. The
resistance levels for
the next several segments will be shown in the
columns to the right. The target speed setting will
appear in the top of the display.

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 and
a series of tones will sound. If the resistance
and/or target speed is about to change, the resis-
tance level and/or the target speed setting will
appear in the display to alert you.

When the first segment is completed, 

all resis-

tance settings will move one column to the left

.

The resistance level for the second segment will
then be shown in the flashing Current Segment
column and the resistance of the pedals will auto-
matically adjust to the level programmed for the

second segment. Note: If all the indicators in the
Current Segment column are lit,

the resistance

levels may move downward 

so that only the high-

est indicators appear.

As you exercise, you will be prompted to keep
your pedaling pace near the target speed setting
for the current segment. When the words PEDAL
FASTER appear in the display, increase your
pace. When the words PEDAL SLOWER appear
in the display, decrease your pace. When the
words PEDALING IN RANGE appear, maintain
your current pace. 

Important: The target speed settings are
intended only to provide motivation. Your
actual pace may be slower than the target
speed settings. Make sure to exercise at a
pace that is comfortable for you.

You can manually override the resistance level by
pressing the Increase or Decrease buttons. Every
few times you press an Increase or Decrease
button, an additional indicator will appear or disap-
pear in the Current Segment column. 

Important:

When the current segment of the program
ends, the exercise cycle will automatically
adjust to the resistance level for the next seg-
ment.

To stop the program at any time, stop pedaling.
The time will begin to flash in the display. To
restart the program, simply resume pedaling.
When the last segment of the program ends, the
words PROGRAM DONE will appear in the dis-
play.

Follow your progress with the display.
