(CYCLE, CROSS and RECUMBENT only). Adjust the leveling screw feet until

the machine stands safely. It is mandatory to adjust the levelling foot because it

is the machine's support. (For a detailed description of the leveling feet please

see Chapter 5.5, “Components").

⊗ Please make sure that the distance between the machines is at least one meter.

Otherwise the POLAR heart rate receiver might not function correctly.

⊗ High-frequency and magnetic interference signals (e.g. radios, TV sets, mobile

Transport and Installation

phones etc.) in close proximity to your cardio equipment may also interfere with

the heart rate control.

⊗ In rare cases, strong electromagnetic fields in some locations may interfere with

the transmission of the heart rate (e.g. high voltage circuit or tramway contact

wires). You may check this with a POLAR pulse watch in case of doubt.

⊗ In case of interference or if you suspect an interference with the heart rate

transmission, under no circumstances perform a cardio control workout (CARDIO

mode).

5.3 Ambient Temperature

⊗ Your ERGO-FIT exercise machine may be used at an ambient temperature of

+10°C to +40°C, a relative humidity of 30 to 75% (non-condensing) and an

atmospheric pressure of 700 hPa to 1060 hPa without causing any problem.

⊗ The machine may be stored at a temperature between -30°C and +50°C.

5.4 Anschließen

1. Perform a visual inspection of the power cord and the input connector (power

entry module) before using the machine. Damaged power cords and connectors

need to be replaced immediately.

2. Plug the power cord into the appropriate power entry module (see picture). Plug

the other end of the cable into the power outlet.

3. Switch on the machine by pressing the power button (I = ON, O = OFF). To

switch on the TRAC model use the button at the automatic circuit breaker (see

chapter 6.1).

4. After your exercise machine has been connected and switched on, it automatically

performs an operating test. During this test the software version of the unit is

displayed. Then the main menu will appear.

5. Stand on the control panel side (you look on the display) and check if the display

functions properly. If this is not the case, make sure you followed the steps

above correctly. In addition, verify if the socket is live.

This is not applicable to models of the 4000 SP and 4000 S SP series!

5.4.1 Power Supply

Use your exercise machine only with earthed (grounded) power sockets with 230 VAC

/ 50-60 Hz (see chapter A5). If you have any doubts about the power supply at the

setup location, ask your energy provider. For TRAC you have in any case to obtain the

permission of your energy provider. Only use commercial 10 ampere (16 ampere with

TRAC) automatic circuit breakers (type B tripping characteristic). In the rare event that

these automatic circuit breakers should switch off when you switch on your machine,

the circuit needs to be fused with 10 A (16 A with TRAC) lead fuses or with a different

type of tripping fuse (e.g. K-automat). In case of doubt, ask your electrician.

Before connecting your ERGO-FIT exercise machine to your power supply system,

compare the acceptable voltage and frequency on the name plate (next to power

entry module) with your local data. Always connect your machine directly to the power

outlet. Never use an extension cord or a power strip.

We recommend DC-isolated cables for the connection of external equipment to a

CARDIO LINE 4000 MED machine.

4000 SP and 4000 S SP machines are equipped with a generator and a rechargeable

NiMH-battery for power supply. The rechargeable battery is maintenance-free and

charged during use. After starting the machine, it provides energy for the control panel.

After workout the electricity accumulated in the battery is used to operate the control

panel for about 45 seconds. Then the machine switches off automatically. The buffer

time reduces by increasing charging cycles and lifetime. To reach the target buffer

time a weekly charge (at least 1x24 hours per week) by a special charging power

supply unit, which is available with ERGO-FIT, is indispensable. If the buffer time

reduces and can no longer be kept up by charging the batteries should be replaced.

Due to the self-discharge rate of the batteries during operation at room temperature

they should be changed every 2 years.

5.4.2 Verkabelung

If you have connected several ERGO-FIT machines to one circuit never switch on

multiple machines. Connect the TRAC to a dedicated circuit.

Transport and Installation

⊗ Make sure that nobody can step on or stumble across the power cord.

⊗ Do not place any objects on the cord as it might get damaged.

5.4.3 Safety Cord

For the safety of our customers, the TRAC has been equipped with a safety cord. It is

attached to the user’s clothes by a clamp. If you should fall, for example, the safety

cord detaches from the corresponding magnet and the treadmill stops immediately.
