is over the age of 45, or smokes, has high cholesterol, is obese, or has not exercised regularly in the
past year.

If, at any time while exercising, the user experiences faintness, dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath, he or she must
stop immediately.

MISE EN GARDE: Des problèmes de santé peuvent être causés par une utilisation incorrecte ou exces-

sive de l'équipement. Life Fitness conseille VIVEMENT de consulter un médecin pour subir un examen
médical complet avant de commencer tout programme d'exercice, et tout particulièrement si l'utilisateur
a des antécédents familiaux d'hypertension ou de troubles cardiaques, ou s'il a plus de 45 ans, s'il
fume, s'il a du cholestérol, s'il est obèse ou n'a pas fait d'exercice régulièrement depuis un an.

Si, pendant l'utilisation de l'appareil, l'utilisateur ressent un malaise, des vertiges, des douleurs ou des difficultés à
respirer, il doit cesser immédiatement.

Read the Operation Manual before setting up the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike.

ELECTRICAL POWER REQUIREMENTS

The Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike with the EngageTMConsole (15” LCD) requires an AC power supply according to
the electrical configurations listed in the chart below. External power is optional with the InspireTMConsole (7” LCD) and
the Achieve

TM

Console (LED).

NOTE: Do not modify the plug provided with this product. If the plug does not fit into an available electrical outlet, have a prop­er outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

XERCISE BIKE

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the bike to the location in which it will be used. See Section 3, titled
Specifications, for the dimensions of the product footprint (assembled dimensions). Allow a distance of 8 to 12 inches, or 21
to 30 centimeters, between the bike and other objects or surfaces on either side. Allow a distance of 3 feet, or 1 meter, from
the front or rear of the bike to any other object or surface.

TABILIZE THE RECUMBENT LIFECYCLE

®

E

XERCISE BIKE

After placing the bike in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it from side to side. Any slight rocking
indicates that the unit must be leveled. Determine which foot is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the jam nut
(A) with an open-end M17 wrench, and rotate the stabilizing foot (B) to lower it. Verify that the bike is stable, and repeat
the adjustment as necessary until the unit no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment by tightening the jam nut against the
stabilizer bar.

CHECK FOR BATTERY POWER

The Achieve (LED) and Inspire (7” LCD) consoles are powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by
pressing and holding the power on/off key. The console should beep and light up. The Message Center on the
Achieve console will display a prompt to set up a workout. The Inspire console will show a message on the LCD indicat­ing it is initializing (for up to 2 minutes). If a prompt doesn’t appear or initializing doesn’t begin, mount the Recumbent
Lifecycle Exercise Bike and begin pedaling. The console should light up and programming a workout should be possible.
Pedal for 20 minutes at 40 rpm or faster during a workout to charge the battery. The pedal action during workouts keeps the
battery charged. If the Lifecycle Exercise Bike is externally powered by the 36V DC power supply, battery maintenance is auto­matic and pedaling is not required.

HECK FOR EXTERNAL POWER

The Engage (15” LCD) console is powered by an external AC-DC 36-volt power supply. Make sure to plug the external
power connector to the front of the Recumbent Lifecycle Bike before plugging the AC power in. Plug the AC Input

cord into an AC outlet. The console should immediately beep and light up. The Engage console will show a message
indicating it is initializing (for up to 2 minutes).

NOTE: If any of the consoles do not light up, contact Life Fitness Customer Service (refer to page one of the manual).
The following connection receptacles are located at the front of the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike: Attachable TV

power (C), coaxial cable (D), external power for the Engage console or optional external power (E), and fitness network­ing (F).

CAUTION: Connectors should easily fit into the receptacles. Forcing a connection may lead to damage to the
barrel connector and/or receptacle and may void product warranty.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT

A properly adjusted seat is extremely important in any bike-oriented exercise activity and the Recumbent Lifecycle
Exercise Bike is no exception. If the seat is too close, excessive strain will be placed on the knees and quadriceps mus­cles; if the seat is too far, the resulting reaching action will irritate the feet, ankles, hips and knees.

Sit on the seat and place the balls of the feet on the pedals. An optimum position will allow movement through the bot­tom of the stroke without locking the knees or shifting in the seat. The knees should have a slight bend at the point of
fullest leg extension.

If the seat needs to be adjusted, lift the spring-loaded adjusting handle (G) located underneath the nose of the seat. Hold both
the handle and nose of the seat with one hand and use the other hand to grab the rear of the seat. Slide the handle and seat
forward or backward as necessary to the proper position. Release the pin to complete engagement. Gently slide the seat for­ward and backward a small distance to ensure it is locked into place. Check the seat distance again and re-adjust it if neces­sary .

CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the seat while pedaling the bike. Doing so may result in an uncomfortable
workout or cause injury.

MISE EN GARDE : N'essayez pas de régler la place en cyclisme la bicyclette. L'action peut ainsi s'ensuivre
dans une séance de mise en forme inconfortable ou provoquer la blessure.

1.2 SETUP

HOW TO ADJUST THE PEDAL STRAPS

The bike pedal straps keep the user’s shoes on the pedals during a workout. The straps should fit comfortably, but they
also should be tight enough to prevent shoes from slipping at any point in the pedaling rotation. Before working out, a
user should test and adjust the tightness of the straps.

The safety straps on the foot pedals of the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike can be adjusted to fit a variety of shoe
sizes. Use one hand to push the strap latch (H) upward to loosen the ribbed strap (I). Use the other hand to pull the
ribbed strap out from underneath the strap latch. Rest the foot on the pedal (J). Wrap the ribbed strap over the foot to
determine the desired length. Push the strap latch upward and thread the ribbed strap through the strap latch to select
the appropriate slot. Let go of the strap latch to secure position.

NOTE: The safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear.
Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are sub­ject to wear as outlined in the Preventive Maintenance Schedule.

REMARQUE : pour conserver un matériel sûr, il convient de l'inspecter régulièrement afin de déceler tout signe d'usure
ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pièces défectueuses n'ont pas été réparées ou remplacées.
Portez une attention toute particulière aux pièces qui s'usent, comme indiqué ci-dessous.

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep your Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike operating at peak perfor­mance:

• Locate the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike in a cool, dry place.

• Keep the pedal straps fastened securely when using the bike.

• Clean the top surface of the pedals regularly.

• Use a 100% cotton cloth, lightly moistened with water and mild liquid detergent, to clean the Recumbent Lifecycle
Exercise Bike. Other fabrics, including paper towels, may scratch the surface. Do not use ammonia, chlorine, or
acid-based cleaners.

• Clean the frame thoroughly on a regular basis.

NOTE: When cleaning the exterior of the unit, a non-abrasive cleaner and soft cotton cloth are strongly
recommended. At no time should cleaner be applied directly to any part of the equipment; apply the
non-abrasive cleaner on a soft cloth and then wipe the unit.
