CHAPTER 1: Important Safety Instructions
CHAPTER 2: Setup

2.1 GETTING STARTED
Read the Owner’s Manual before setting up the Matrix bike. Place the unit where it will be used before beginning the setup procedure.
2.2 CHOOSING A LOCATION
The site should be well-lit and well-ventilated. Place the bike on a structurally solid flat surface and kept a few feet from the wall or any equipment. If the
site has a heavy plush carpet, to protect the carpeting and machinery, you should place a rigid plastic base under the unit.
Please do not place the bike in an area of high humidity, such as the vicinity of a steam room, indoor pool, or sauna. Exposure to intensive water vapour
or chlorine could adversely affect the electronics, as well as other parts of the machine. To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, these two bikes
should be in an attractive setting.
2.3 STABILIZING THE BIKE
After positioning the bike in its intended location, check its stability by attempting to shake it side to side. Shaking or wobbling indicates that your bike needs
to be leveled. Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the nut with one hand to allow the leveler to rotate. Rotate the left or right
leveler, and repeat the adjustment as necessary until the bike is stable. Lock the adjustment by tightening the nut against the rear foot support.
2.4 ADJUSTING THE PEDAL STRAP
The straps are designed to fit your individual foot size and should be adjusted tight enough to keep your feet from slipping. The pedals include spring-loaded
clips for easy adjustment. To tighten the strap, pull down the open end of the strap. To loosen the strap, push down on the top of the clip and pull the strap up.
Release the clip to lock in place.

CHAPTER 2: Setup
2.5 ADJUSTING THE SEAT
RECUMBENT BIKE R1x
While seated on the R1x, 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 seat lever on the right
side of the seat to make adjustments. Slide the seat forward or backward to
desired location. Release the spring-loaded seat lever and gently attempt to
rock forward and backward to assure it is locked in place. Check the seat
distance again and re-adjust it if necessary.
UPRIGHT BIKE U1x
To determine whether or not the seat requires adjustment, sit on it and place
the foot ankle 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 U1x 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, pull the seat upward to the desired height, and let it lock in
place. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.
To lower the seat, first get off the bike. Holding the seat, pull out the seat
post knob. Let the seat slide down to the desired height and release the
seat post knob. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.

BATTERY
2.6 SELF POWERED FEATURES
On the bikes, the user’s pedaling generates the power to initialize and display
information on the monitor. A minimum of 30 RPM (revolutions per minute) is
required to start and maintain enough power to keep the monitor functional. If
the minimum RPM is not maintained, the monitor will begin to shutdown. The
U1x and R1x are able to extend time to display the monitor, at the minimum
RPM not maintained, if the bikes are equipped with the battery. The bike
saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode whenever PEDAL
FASTER appears on the display.
NOTE: The battery is not equipped with the bike for a standard specification.
If your bike equipped with the battery receives inconsistent use, or long time
periods between use, the battery may require recharging. The adapter is an
optional accessory for recharging the unit. To purchase the optional battery
and adapter please contact Matrix Fitness or your local dealer.
SYMPTOMS OF A LOW BATTERY
If the bike has not been used for an extended period of time, the battery may
require recharging. Symptoms of a low battery can include:
• A “LOW BATTERY” message will appear on the monitor
• Backlighting on the LCD display will be disabled
• No one uses the bike for an extended period of time.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adapter charging
unit. The charger should be connected to the bike for a minimum of eight
hours to ensure a thorough charge. If LOW BATTERY still appears on the
display after full charging, the battery could be extinct. Please check with an
authorized service technician for replacing the battery.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
The unit’s battery is built to last for a long time. However, if you feel that the
battery may need replacing, check with an authorized service technician.
CAUTION: The battery stored inside the unit contains hazardous materials to
the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required by the law.
