4.3 Placement

The exerciser can be used in two primary configurations:

• Under a Desk: Place the exerciser on the floor beneath your desk. Ensure there is enough clearance for your knees and feet to pedal comfortably without hitting the underside of the desk. The non-slip base will help keep it in place.
• On a Tabletop: For arm exercises, place the exerciser on a sturdy, flat tabletop. Ensure the table can support the exerciser and your arm movements without wobbling.

5.1 Adjusting Resistance

The exerciser features an adjustable tension knob to vary the resistance level.

1. Locate the tension knob on the front of the exerciser, near the base of the pedals.
2. Turn the knob clockwise to increase resistance, making pedaling more challenging.
3. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease resistance, making pedaling easier.
4. Adjust the resistance to a comfortable level that provides an effective workout without causing strain.

5.2 Using the Electronic Display

The digital monitor automatically cycles through five functions to display your workout data:

• TIME: Displays the duration of your current exercise session.
• CNT (Count): Shows the total number of revolutions completed.
• RPM (Revolutions Per Minute): Indicates your current pedaling speed.
• CAL (Calories): Estimates the calories burned during your session.
• SCAN: Automatically alternates between displaying TIME, CNT, RPM, and CAL.

To reset the display, press and hold the red button located below the screen for a few seconds until the values clear.

5.3 Exercise Techniques

• For Legs: Sit comfortably in a chair with the exerciser placed on the floor in front of you. Place your feet into the pedal straps and adjust them for a secure fit. Begin pedaling in a smooth, controlled motion.
• For Arms: Place the exerciser on a stable tabletop. Sit in front of it and place your hands into the pedal straps. Begin rotating the pedals with your arms in a smooth, controlled motion.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

Wipe down the exerciser with a damp cloth after each use to remove dust and sweat. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish or electronic components.

6.2 Storage

To store the exerciser, gently push the legs inwards until they fold flat against the main body. This compact design allows for easy storage in small spaces, such as under a bed or in a closet.

7. Troubleshooting

• Display not working: Check if the LR44 battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
• Resistance feels too loose/tight: Adjust the tension knob as described in Section 5.1. Ensure the knob is fully engaged.
• Exerciser slides during use: Ensure the exerciser is on a flat, non-slippery surface. The rubber feet are designed to prevent sliding; check if they are clean and intact.
• Unusual noises during operation: Stop using the exerciser immediately. Inspect for any loose parts or obstructions. If the noise persists, discontinue use and contact customer support.
