Be sure to exercise at apace that is comfortable for you.The innovative console offers a manual mode andthree pacer programs. The pacer programs aredesigned to help you achieve your exercise goals bypacing your exercise. The programs include an 18MPH/90 RPM program, a 12 MPH/60 RPM program,and a 6 MPH/30 RPM program. The console also features five monitor modes that provide continuous exercise feedback, Note: On some consoles the programs are listed in MPH and on others in RPM.Both sets of programs are identical.HOW THE PACER PROGRAMSThe graphs on the left side of the console show howthe target pace will change during each program (seethe drawing above). Each graph is divided into tencolumns, and each column represents 1/10 of a mile.The bars in each column show what the target pacewill be during that 1/10 of a mile. For example, in thefirst column of the 12 MPH/60 RPM graph, there isone bar. This shows that during the first 1/10 of a milein this program, the target pace will be 6 MPH (30RPM).
