Troubleshooting

• Device won’t run / emergency stop behavior (general note for other devices in manual): The manual section mentions that on a treadmill, without a “safety key” the treadmill does not work and the key must be attached to clothing. (No similar rowing-specific safety-key issue is stated for this rowing machine.)
• LCD/heart rate shows no value: For heart-rate display, the manual states you must wear a chest heart-rate belt correctly; if it’s not worn properly, the display window will be empty.
• Display affected by cleaning: The manual advises not to use strong/corrosive detergents to avoid damaging the display; use a damp cloth.
• Performance/safety due to looseness or wear: Regularly check and tighten screws/bolts; replace damaged parts immediately to maintain structural safety.
• Auto-off during use: The manual states the device turns off after periods of inactivity (20s in standby; 30s during training; 2 minutes during interval execution). Increase activity/continue rowing to avoid inactivity shutdown.
