Step 1
Before proceeding, familiarize yourself with the parts of the Lifecycle 9100 exercise bike and make sure that you have
received all the items described in the Parts List.
Step 2
Remove the STABILIZER BAR (#7) from the
carton base. Use the empty CONSOLE
CARTON to raise the rear of the LIFECYCLE
exercise bike as shown.
Remove the two BOLTS (#1) from the bottom
of the SHIPPING STABILIZER, save the
BOLTS and store the SHIPPING STABILIZER
with the other shipping containers.
Step 3
Use the same two BOLTS that held the
SHIPPING STABILIZER in place to attach the
STABILIZER BAR as shown. Make certain
that the BOLTS are tight and the STABILIZER
BAR is flush against the frame. Remove the
shipping carton.
Step 4
Unfold the CONSOLE WIRE HARNESS from
the POST extending from the FRAME.
NOTE: THE COLLAR (#4) SHOULD ALREADY BE IN PLACE INSTALLED ON THE
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY (#5). IF NOT, INSTALL BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Step 5
Place the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY on the floor in front of the
FRAME with the two CONNECTORS next to each other. Align
the two CONNECTORS and push them together until they firmly
snap into place.
Step 6
Position the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY, with the COLLAR (#4)
in place, so that the HANDLEBAR is facing away from the user.
Slide the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY into the HANDLEBAR
POST. Be careful not to pinch
the wires.
Align the three holes in the
HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY,
with those in the HANDLEBAR
POST and install the three
HANDLEBAR BOLTS (#1).
NOTE: BE CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE THE WIRES WHEN PASSING THE BOLTS THROUGH THE HOLES.
TIGHTEN THE BOLTS SECURELY.
Step 7
Slide the COLLAR (#4) down until it completely covers the HANDLEBAR
ASSEMBLY HARDWARE and the HANDLEBAR POST. Secure the COLLAR by
squeezing the sides and pushing downward firmly.
Step 8
There is a large hole in the rear of the DISPLAY CONSOLE (#6) through which
you can see a 16-PIN CONNECTOR and a 3-PIN CONNECTOR. These
correspond to the matching CONNECTORS on the WIRE HARNESS protruding
from the top of the HANDLEBAR.
Properly align the locking tabs of the 16-PIN CONNECTOR on the WIRE
HARNESS with the 16-PIN CONNECTOR on the back of the DISPLAY
CONSOLE, then snap them together. Next, align the locking tabs of the
3-PIN CONNECTOR on the WIRE HARNESS with the 3-PIN on the back
of the DISPLAY CONSOLE and plug them together until they SNAP into
place.
Step 9
Feed the WIRE HARNESS back into the HANDLEBAR TUBE. Attach
the DISPLAY CONSOLE to the HANDLEBAR ASSEMBLY using the
four CONSOLE SCREWS (#2) and a Phillips screwdriver. Tighten the
four SCREWS in a crisscross pattern.
CAUTION!: BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERTIGHTEN THE SCREWS.
Step 10
To install the 9-VOLT ALKALINE BATTERY (#8) found in the parts bag use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screw
from the back door. Gently pull the BATTERY WIRES from the bac k of the DISPLAY CONSOLE and connect them to
the 9-VOLT ALKALINE BATTERY.
Carefully, tuck the BATTERY
WIRES back into the DISPLAY
NOTE: ONLY USE AN ALKALINE TYPE BATTERY. USE OF ANY OTHER TYPE
BATTERY MAY RESULT IN A MALFUNCTION OR DAMAGE.
CONSOLE and set the BATTERY in
place.
Re-install the BATTERY DOOR by
inserting the bottom tab of the
BATTERY DOOR into the
corresponding slot in the DISPLAY
CONSOLE. Push the DOOR into
place and tighten the screw with a
Phillips screwdriver.
CAUTION!: BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREW
Step 11
After placing the Lifecycle exercise bike in the intended location for use, check
the stability of the bike.
If the bike is not level, rotate the FOOT in the STABILIZER BAR that appears to
be higher until the Lifecycle exercise bike is level.
Secure the position of the FOOT by tightening the LOCKNUT with the enclosed
wrench.
OPERATION CHECKLIST
⇒ Insure that the STABILIZER BAR and HANDLEBAR BOLTS are tight.
⇒ Make sure the exercise bike is properly leveled and stable.
⇒ Read the entire Operation Manual before using the exercise bike.
ENGLISH/METRIC DEFAULT SETTING TOGGLE
The default setting of the Lifecycle 9100 exercise bike display console is set to English units of measurements at the
factory. If your display console will require units of measurements to be in metric, it may be necessary to change the
setting from English to metric. To do so, you will need to enter into the diagnostic programs and proceed to Diagnostic
State 7. To do so, follow the instructions as listed below.
Press and continue to hold the ‘5’ key on the keypad, then press ‘START’ while pedaling the bike over 55 RPM.
On entry, all LED’s and 7-segment displays will be on. You are now in Diagnostic State 1. Press the ENTER key six
times to forward to Diagnostic State 7 and choose the default setting.
In all diagnostic states, the user must keep pedaling the bike. If the pedal RPM drops too low, the bike will shut down,
requiring at least 40 RPM or greater and a START switch closure to operate again.
Diagnostic State 7:
This test indicates the display console default setting of English or metric units of measurements.
When the default is set to English units of measurements, it will read ‘ E ’ in the UPPER RIGHT WINDOW.
When the default is set to metric units of measurement, it will read ‘ 9 ’ in the UPPER RIGHT WINDOW.
The user can change the default setting of the system by pressing the ' 5 ' key. The system will toggle from an ‘ E ’ to
‘ 9 ’ to ‘ E ’ condition by continuing to press the ' 5 ' key.
Diagnostic State 6 can be entered now by pressing the CLEAR/PAUSE key and you can continue going backwards
by pressing the CLEAR/PAUSE key through previous diagnostics until you return to the user display.
