POWER ACCURACY
This bike displays power on the console. The power accuracy of this model has been tested using the test method of ISO 20957-5:2016 to ensure a power accuracy within a tolerance of ±10 % for input power ?50 W, and within a tolerance of ±5 W for input power <50 W.
BRAKING SYSTEM
This exercise bicycle uses a speed-independent braking system. The user is able to adjust the resistance of the braking system independently of the RPM of the crank axle.
USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION
The heart rate function on this product is not a medical device. The heart rate reading is intended only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate trends in general. Please consult your physician.
When used in conjunction with a wireless chest transmitter (sold separately), your heart rate can be transmitted wirelessly to the unit and displayed on the console. Compatible with Bluetooth, ANT+ and Polar 5kHz heart rate devices.
NOTE: The chest strap must be tight and properly placed to receive an accurate and consistent readout. If the chest strap is too loose, or positioned improperly, you may receive an erratic or inconsistent heart rate readout.
WARNING!
Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result in serious injury or death. If you feel faint, stop exercising immediately.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
LOCATION OF THE UNIT
Place the equipment on a level and stable surface away from direct sunlight. The intense UV light can cause discoloration of the plastics. Locate your equipment in an area with cool temperatures and low humidity. Please leave a clear zone on all sides of the equipment that is at least 60 cm (23.6″). This zone must be clear of any obstruction and provide the user a clear exit path from the machine. Do not place the equipment in any area that will block any vent or air openings. The equipment should not be located in a garage, covered patio, near water or outdoors.
MOVING THE EQUIPMENT
Please use transport handle at base of frame when moving equipment.

LEVELING THE EQUIPMENT
It is extremely important that the levelers are correctly adjusted for proper operation. Turn leveling foot clockwise to lower and counter-clockwise to raise unit.

- To determine proper seat position, place one foot on each pedal, located on either side of the bike. Your knee should bend slightly at the furthest pedal position. You should be able to pedal without locking your knees or shifting your weight from side to side.
- If you need to adjust the seat height or fore-aft position, stand with feet on the floor, removing all weight from seat. Adjust seat as required, then remount.
- Adjust pedal straps to desired tightness.
- Set the resistance or the preferred exercise program as desired. Use your feet to rotate the pedals in a controlled manner.
