user’s authority to operate the equipment.

The power supply complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1)

This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note: This power supply has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part

15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a

residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed

and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause

harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the

user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•Reorientorrelocatethereceivingantenna.

•Increasetheseparationbetweentheequipmentandreceiver.

Basic Assembly Tips

Follow these basic points when you assemble your machine:

1. Read and understand the “Important Safety Instructions” before assembly.

2. Collect all the pieces necessary for each assembly step.

3. Using the recommended wrenches, turn the bolts and nuts to the right (clockwise) to tighten, and the left (counter-

clockwise) to loosen, unless instructed otherwise.

4. When attaching 2 pieces, lightly lift and look through the bolt holes to help insert the bolt through the holes.

5. The assembly can require 2 people.

Results Indicator

The RESULTS indicator comes on when the Console shows the workout data results.

Battery Indicator

The Battery Indicator comes on when the battery power is low.

Contact Heart Rate Sensors

Contact Heart Rate (CHR) sensors send your heart rate signals to the Console. The CHR sensors are the stainless steel

parts of the Handlebars. To use, put your hands comfortably around the sensors. Be sure that your hands touch both the

top and the bottom of the sensors. Hold firm, but not too tight or loose. Both hands must make contact with the sensors

for the Console to detect a pulse. After the Console detects four stable pulse signals, your initial pulse rate will be shown.

Once the Console has your initial heart rate, do not move or shift your hands for 10 to 15 seconds. The Console will now

validate the heart rate. Many factors influence the ability of the sensors to detect your heart rate signal:

• Movement of the upper body muscles (including arms) produces an electrical signal (muscle artifact) that can interfere

with pulse detection. Slight hand movement while in contact with the sensors can also produce interference.

• Calluses and hand lotion may act as an insulating layer to reduce the signal strength.

• SomeElectrocardiogram(EKG)signalsgeneratedbyindividualsarenotstrongenoughtobedetectedbythesensors.

CHRdetectionmaybelimitedtowalkingorslowjoggingduetotheextrememuscleartifactsandhandmotiongenerated

by a comfortable running style. If your heart rate signal ever seems erratic after validation, wipe off your hands and the

sensors and try again.

Heart Rate Calculations

Yourmaximumheartrateusuallydecreasesfrom220BeatsPerMinute(BPM)inchildhoodtoapproximately160BPMby

age60.Thisfallinheartrateisusuallylinear,decreasingbyapproximatelyoneBPMforeachyear.Thereisnoindication

thattraininginuencesthedecreaseinmaximumheartrate.Individualsofthesameagecouldhavedifferentmaximum

heart rates. It is more accurate to find this value by getting a stress test than by using an age related formula.

Yourat-restheartrateisinuencedbyendurancetraining.Thetypicaladulthasanatrestheartrateofapproximately72

BPM, whereas highly trained runners may have readings of 40 BPM or lower.

The Heart Rate table is an estimate of what Heart Rate Zone (HRZ) is effective to burn fat and better your cardiovascular

system. Physical conditions vary, therefore, your individual HRZ could be several beats higher or lower than what is

shown.

18

Themostefcientproceduretoburnfatduringexerciseistostartataslowpaceandgraduallyincreaseyourintensity

untilyourheartratereachesbetween60–85%ofyourmaximumheartrate.Continueatthatpace,keepingyourheart

rate in that target zone for over 20 minutes. The longer you maintain your target heart rate, the more fat your body will

burn.

The graph is a brief guideline, describing the generally suggested target heart rates based on age. As noted above, your

optimal target rate may be higher or lower. Consult your physician for your individual target heart rate zone.

1. With a Pedal in the forward position, center the ball of your foot over the center of it. Your leg

should be bent slightly at the knee.

2. If your leg is too straight or your foot cannot touch the Pedal, move the seat down on the up-

right bike. If your leg is bent too much, move the seat up.

!Step off the bike before you adjust the seat.

Loosen and pull the adjustment knob on the seat tube. Adjust the seat to the desired height.

Release the adjustment knob to engage the locking pin. Be sure that the pin is fully engaged and

fully tighten the knob.
