FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The advanced console offers an array of features de-
signed to make your workouts more effective and en-
joyable. When you use the quick start mode of the
console, you can change the resistance of the pedals
with the touch of a button. As you exercise, the con-
sole will provide continuous exercise feedback. You
can even measure your heart rate using the handgrip
pulse sensor or the optional chest pulse sensor. Note:
For information about the optional chest pulse
sensor, see page 25.
The console offers twenty-three preset programs.
Each program automatically changes the resistance of
the pedals and prompts you to maintain a target pace
as it guides you through an effective workout.
The console also offers three manual programs that
allow you to set your own time, distance, or calorie
goal for the workout.
In addition, there are two custom programs that allow
you to create your own workouts and store them in
memory for future use. Also, when you have finished
exercising, you can use the cool down mode to help
you recover from your workout.
The console also provides two heart rate programs
that automatically adjust the resistance of the pedals to
keep your heart rate near a target level during your
workouts.
The console features the new iFit interactive Workout
System. The iFit interactive Workout System enables
the console to accept iFit cards containing workouts
designed to help you achieve specific fitness goals.

.Press the START button or begin pedaling to
start the program.
Each CUSTOM program is divided into 30 one-
minute segments. One resistance setting and one
target rpm (pace) is programmed for each seg-
ment. Note: The same resistance setting and/or
target rpm may be programmed for consecutive
segments.
During the program, the program profile will show
your progress (see the drawing to the left). The
flashing column of the profile represents the cur-
rent segment of the program. The height of the
flashing column indicates the resistance level for
the current segment. At the end of each segment
of the program, a series of tones will sound and the
next segment of the profile will begin to flash. If a
different resistance level is programmed for the
next segment, the resistance level will appear in
the display for a few seconds to alert you. The re-
sistance of the pedals will then change.
As you exercise, keep
your pedaling pace
near the target rpm set-
ting for the current seg-
ment, which is shown
in the main display.
iMPORTANT: The target rpm settings are in-
tended only to provide motivation. Your actual
pace may be slower than the target rpm set-
tings. Make sure to pedal at a pace that is com-
fortable for you.
