HOW TO USE PERSONAL TRAINER PROGRAMS

Begin pedaling to activate the console.

See step 1 on page 12.

Select one of the six personal trainer

programs.

When the power is

turned on, the

manual mode will

be selected. To

select a personal

trainer program,

press the Program

Select button repeatedly until a “P 1,” “P 2,” “P 3,”

“P 4,” “P 5,” or “P 6” appears in the lower display.

When a personal trainer program is selected, the

matrix will show the first eight resistance settings

of the program.

Press the Program Start button or begin

pedaling to start the program.

Each program is divided into several time seg-

ments of different lengths. One resistance setting

is programmed for each segment. (The same

resistance setting may be programmed for two or

more consecutive segments.)

The resistance

setting for the first

segment will be

shown in the flash-

ing Current

Segment column

of 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 automatically

change to the resistance setting for the second

segment.

Note: If all of the indicators in the Current Segment

column are lit after the resistance settings have

moved to the left,

the resistance settings will move

downward so that only the highest indicators

appear in the matrix.

The program will continue until the resistance set-

ting for the last segment is shown in the Current

Segment column of the matrix and no time

remains in the program.

Note: During the program, you can override the

resistance setting for the current segment by

pressing the Resistance buttons. However, when

the next segment begins, the resistance will auto-

matically change if a different resistance setting is

programmed for the next segment. If you stop

pedaling for several seconds, a tone will sound

and the program will pause. To restart the pro-

gram, simply resume pedaling.

Use the console’s pace function if desired.

During personal trainer programs, the console

can prompt you to increase or decrease your

pace as it guides you through your workout.

To use the pace

function, press the

left Mode button

repeatedly until the

Pace indicator is lit;

make sure that the

Scan indicator is

not lit. Two horizon-

tal bars will appear

in the matrix. The

upper bar repre-

sents a target

pace, and the

lower bar represents your actual pace. During the

program, the length of the upper bar will periodi-

cally change. When the upper bar changes in

length, adjust your pace so that both bars are the

same length. Important: The pace settings of

the program are intended only to provide a

goal. Your actual pace may be slower than the

pace settings, especially during the first few

months of your exercise program. Make sure

to pedal at a pace that is comfortable for you.
