1.2 SETUP

Read the entire Operation Manual before setting up the Lifecycle exercise bike.

WHERE TO PLACE THE LIFECYCLE EXERCISE BIKE

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the bike to the location in which it will be used. See Section 7, titled
Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow a distance of 16 inches, or 41 centimeters, between the widest
part of the bike and other objects on either side. Allow a distance of 3 feet, or 1 meter, between the front or rear of the bike
to any other objects.

HOW TO STABILIZE THE LIFECYCLE EXERCISE 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
with an open-end 9/16-inch wrench, and rotate the stabilizing foot 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.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT

It is important to adjust the seat to an optimal height for pedaling on the Lifecycle Exercise Bike. Pedaling with the seat too
low can place excessive strain on the knees and quadriceps muscles. Pedaling with the seat too high can irritate the feet,
ankles, hips, and knees. To determine whether or not the seat requires adjustment, sit on it and place the balls of the feet
on the pedals. The knee should bend slightly when the pedal is at the lowest point of its rotation. It should be possible to
pedal without locking the knees or shifting in the seat.

The bike features a vertical ratchet seat adjustment system, which makes it easy and safe to change the height of the
seat quickly. To raise the seat, either lift the body so that there is no weight on the seat, or get off the bike. Then, simply
pull the seat upward to the desired height, and let it lock into place. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.

To lower the seat, first get off the bike. Holding the seat, pull up the ad­justment lever in front of the seat post to unlock the post, let the seat
slide down to the desired height, and release the lever to lock the post
into place. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.

CAUTION: When using the height adjustment mechanism

to change the height of a partially raised seat, hold the seat

to prevent it from falling on the hand.

MISE EN GARDE - Lorsque vous utilisez le mécanisme de

réglage de la hauteur pour monter une selle déjà partielle-

ment surélevée, maintenez cette dernière afin qu'elle ne
vous tombe pas sur la main.

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 can be adjusted to fit a variety of shoe sizes. The straps are held in place by two
knobs that extend from either side of each pedal. The “inner” knob extends sideways, that is, toward the bike. The “outer”
knob extends downward. The ends of each strap are perforated with slots that fit tightly over the knobs. The “inner” end of
each strap is perforated with two slots, and the “outer” segment of the strap is perforated with a row of slots.

To tighten or loosen a strap, grasp the outer end, and pull it back, away from the knob, until the strap slides off. Pull the
strap out through the outer loop on the pedal. Rest the foot on the pedal, and wrap the strap over the foot to determine the
desired length. Thread the strap through the outer loop on the pedal, tuck it under the pedal, select the appropriate slot,
and pull that slot down over the knob, until the top of the knob pops through the slot. A click indicates that the strap is
locked into place.

STARTING UP THE BIKE CONSOLE

When a user begins pedaling on the Lifecycle exercise bike, the unit’s Auto-Start feature powers up the console, causing the
console display to light up and the MESSAGE CENTER to flash a prompt: “SELECT WORKOUT USING ARROW KEYS OR
PRESS QUICK START”. If the user does not make a selection in 20 seconds, the console automatically starts a MANUAL
workout. For information on setting up a workout, see Section 4.2, titled Using the Workouts. If the user stops pedaling for
more than 15 seconds, the console shuts down. Alternately, the user may press the START key to power up the console.

USING THE POWER ASSIST OPTION

The Lifecycle exercise bike’s optional Power Assist feature makes it possible for the console to be powered by an external
electrical source, eliminating the need to pedal at a minimum speed to supply constant power to the console. With this op­tion, users who wish to ride the bike for rehabilitative exercise may pedal at a rate below the minimum without losing con­sole power.

Enabling the Power Assist option requires an optional kit. To order the kit, contact Life Fitness Customer Service. See
page one for contact information.

When the kit is installed, the connector plugs into the bike at the front of the frame, near the base.

SERVICE ACCESS PORT

The two interchangeable type RJ45 networking ports (A) are located on the back of the display console and are enclosed

2 CONSOLE OVERLAY

2.1 CONSOLE OVERLAY OVERVIEW

The computerized display console allows the user to tailor a workout to personal fitness abilities and goals and to monitor
progress. With this easy-to-use console, the user can track fitness improvement from one workout to the next.

10

11

2.2 CONSOLE OVERLAY DESCRIPTIONS

A. WORKOUT PROFILE window: This window displays shapes, made of columns of lights, that represent the levels of

intensity in a workout-in-progress. The height of the first column on the left side of the window is proportional to the
current level of intensity.

During a FAT BURN, CARDIO, HEART RATE HILL, HEART RATE INTERVAL, or EXTREME HEART RATE work-
out, which requires the use of a Polar

®

telemetry heart rate chest strap or the Lifepulse system sensors, the WORK­OUT PROFILE window displays a flashing heart shape to request the user’s heart rate signal. If the console does not
detect a signal, the MESSAGE CENTER displays the prompt “NEED HEART RATE - PLACE HANDS ON SENSORS
OR USE TELEMETRY STRAP". If the console does not receive the signal within three minutes, the workout automati­cally is converted to a MANUAL program.

B. MESSAGE CENTER: This window displays step-by-step instructions for setting up a workout. During a workout, it dis-

plays statistics about the progress of the workout:

• Level: the programmed intensity level. It is displayed continuously unless the heart rate is being measured, in

which case, Heart Rate is displayed.

• Heart Rate: the detected heart rate if the user is wearing the chest strap or grasping the Lifepulse system sen-

sors. If the heart rate is not being measured during a workout, then Level is displayed instead.

• Distance: the total distance traveled in miles (or kilometers if enabled).

• RPM (Revolutions per Minute): the pedaling speed or rate.

• Calories: the number of calories burned since beginning the workout, alternates with Time.

• Time: the time elapsed since the beginning of the workout; alternates with Calories.

If configured to do so, the MESSAGE CENTER displays other values each time the intensity level changes during the
workout:

• Calories per Hour: the rate of calories burned per hour.
OR

• Watts: effort level in Watts. The Watt is a unit of power output or the expression of the mechanical rate of work.

• METs: effort level in METs. The MET is an expression of the rate of work for the human body at rest, or a meta-

bolic equivalent; one MET is approximately equal to the metabolism of a person at rest.

C. DISPLAY LOCK: During a workout, the MESSAGE CENTER alternately displays TIME and CALORIES. Pressing the

DISPLAY LOCK key when the MESSAGE CENTER displays one of these statistics forces the MESSAGE CENTER to
display that statistic throughout the workout. Pressing DISPLAY LOCK again allows the MESSAGE CENTER to re­sume toggling between both statistics.

D. WORKOUTS PLUS: When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a workout, press this key to select WATTS

(when enabled), METs (when enabled), LIFE FITNESS FIT TEST, MILITARY FIT TEST (when enabled), AEROBICS
TRAINER, INTERVAL, AROUND THE WORLD, CASCADES, FOOTHILLS, SPEED TRAINING, or KILIMANJARO
programs.

E. CHANGE WORKOUTS: Press this key to change workout programs during a workout (on the fly).
F. BIKE MODE: Press this key to activate the Bike workout mode in which the rate of calories burned and total distance

traveled increase automatically as the user increases the pedaling speed.

G. ARROW keys: When prompted by the MESSAGE CENTER to select a workout, use these keys to scroll through dis-

played choices. When setting up a workout, use these keys to change workout parameters displayed on the console,
such as length of workout, weight, age, target heart rate, and intensity level. During a workout, pressing the ARROW
keys changes intensity levels or target heart rate.

H. CONSTANT CAL./HOUR: Press this key to activate this alternate workout mode, which enables a user to maintain a

consistent rate of calories burned per hour.

I. ENTER key: Press this key to confirm entries of workout setup values, as displayed in the MESSAGE CENTER.
J. QUICK START key: Press this key to begin a manual workout immediately, without having to select a workout pro-

gram. Once the workout is in progress, use the ARROW keys to change the intensity level or workout duration as de­sired.

K. COOL DOWN key: Workout programs end automatically in a Cool Down mode, which lowers the intensity level.

Press the COOL DOWN key at any desired point during a workout to go immediately into Cool Down mode. In this
phase of a workout the body begins to remove lactic acid and other accumulated by-products of exercise, which build
up in muscles during a workout and contribute to muscle soreness. The console automatically adjusts each workout’s
Cool Down level according to the individual user’s performance.

L. PAUSE: Press this key to pause the current workout. Continue the workout by pressing the PAUSE key again, or by
