6. Press [RESISTANCE JOYSTICK] in and release to change the resistance type from target power to target slope.
Slope measures grade steepness of your simulated climb. You can choose a grade between 0 and 10 for the
slope. The higher the number, the steeper the slope you’re climbing. While in slope mode, the PowerBeam Pro
provides the resistance for the selected slope at whatever speed you’re riding. The faster you pedal, the more
resistance you’ll need to overcome, just like riding up an actual hill. The resistance the PowerBeam Pro simulates
is calculated considering the power needed to climb the target slope on a road bike with slick tires and the user
weight saved in Joule’s User Setup. For information on setting up user weight see pages 66-67 or connect Joule
to PowerAgent software to adjust user weight.

7. Shift gears on your bicycle to adjust the intensity at the target slope.

8. Press in and release INTERVAL] at anytime during a manual workout to start a new interval and end a previous
