any fitness program, they should obtain complete physical
examinations from their physicians. If, at any time while exercising,
the user experiences dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath,
nausea or feels faint, he or she must stop immediately.
* This bike is only to be used for its intended purpose described
in this manual. Do not use attachments that have not been recommended by Matrix.
* Never drop or insert objects into any opening. Keep hands away
from moving parts. If the item cannot be reached, contact a Matrix
authorized dealer for assistance.
* Never operate the unit if it is damaged, not working properly, when
it has been dropped, or has been dropped in water.
* Keep hands and feet clear at all times from moving parts to avoid
injury.
* Do not use this product outdoors, near swimming pools or in areas
of high humidity.
* Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or
when oxygen is being administered.
* Do not use this product in bare feet. Do not wear shoes with heels,

CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.2 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Matrix 5x Series Upright Bike is designed to be self powered. NOTE: If an add on TV (using a bracket) or Virtual Active is added to the
unit, it must be plugged in, or the TV and Virtual Active will not operate correctly. If the Bike will be plugged in, follow the requirements below.
MATRIX DEDICATED CIRCUIT/ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENT INFO
All Matrix Bikes require the use of a 15 amp or 20 amp “dedicated circuit,” with a non-looped (isolated) neutral/ground, for the power requirement.
Quite simply this means that each outlet you plug Bikes into should not have anything else running on that same circuit besides other Bikes (up to
3 per 15 amp circuit and 4 per 20 amp circuit). The easiest way to verify this is to locate the main circuit breaker box, and turn off the breaker(s)
one at a time. Once a breaker has been turned off, the only thing that should not have power to it are the Bikes in question. No lamps, vending
machines, fans, sound systems, or any other item should lose power when you perform this test.
Non-looped (isolated) neutral/grounding means that each circuit must have an individual neutral/ground connection coming from it, and terminating
at an approved earth ground. You cannot “jumper” a single neutral/ground from one circuit to the next.
In addition to the dedicated circuit requirement, the proper gauge wire must be used from the circuit breaker box, to each outlet that will have the
maximum number of units running off of it. If the distance from the circuit breaker box, to each outlet, is 100 ft or less, then 12 gauge wire may be
used. For any distance greater than 100 ft from the circuit breaker box to the outlet, 10 gauge wire must be used.
For your safety and Bike performance, the ground on this circuit must be non-looped. Please refer to NEC article 210-21 and 210-23. Your Bike is
provided with a power cord with a plug listed below and requires the listed outlet. Any alterations of this power cord could void all warranties for
this product. Multiple Bikes can be powered on one dedicated circuit. (3 units per 15 Amp and 4 units per 20 Amp dedicated circuit.)
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
The Matrix U5x-03 Upright Bike must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The Bike is equipped with a cord having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. If the user does not follow these grounding instructions, the user could void the Matrix limited warranty.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician
if the user is in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product if it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by an electrician.

CHAPTER 3: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
3.1 RECOMMENDED CLEANING TIPS
Preventative maintenance and daily cleaning will prolong the life and look
of your MATRIX U5x-03 Bike
Please read and follow these tips.
* Position the equipment away from direct sunlight. The intense UV
light can cause discoloration on plastics.
* Locate your equipment in an area with cool temperatures and low
humidity.
* Clean with a soft 100% cotton cloth.
* Clean with soap and water or other non-ammonia based all purpose
cleaners.
* Wipe seats, pedals, console, heart rate grips, and the handlebar clean
after each use.
* Do not pour liquids directly onto your equipment. This can cause dam-
age to the equipment and in some cases electrocution.
* Check pedal straps weekly for wear.
* Adjust leveling feet when equipment wobbles or rocks.
* Maintain a clean area around the equipment, free from dust and dirt.
3.2 CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS
DO NOT use any equipment that is damaged or has worn or

MAINTAIN LABELS AND NAMEPLATES. Do not remove labels
for any reason. They contain important information. If unreadable
or missing, contact Matrix Fitness Systems for a replacement at
866-693-4863 or www.matrixfitness.com.
MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT. Preventative maintenance is the
key to smoothly operating equipment. Equipment needs to be
inspected at regular intervals. Defective components must be
kept out of use until they are repaired. Ensure that any person(s)
making adjustments or performing maintenance or repair of any
kind is qualified to do so. Matrix Fitness Systems will provide
service and maintenance training at our corporate facility upon
request or in the field if proper arrangements are made.

1) Sections 8.11 - 8.14 will help with diagnosing problems with TV and entertainment related equipment that is produced by Matrix Fitness Systems.
2) The U5x Bike has the capability of adding an external 15" TV with a bracket. A Matrix brand external TV will look similar to the TV in Figure A.
Your control keypad should look similar to Figure B. If your equipment looks different contact Matrix or the manufacturer of your TV equipment if
known.
FIGURE A FIGURE B
3) Verify how your TV is mounted, compare your machine to Figure C which shows an external 15" TV directly mounted to a unit with a 5x console.
FIGURE C
4) For Matrix produced and mounted equipment you can use the information outlined in this section to help with any connection and power
issues you may have. If you have questions that are specic to the TV alone (settings, programming, menu options, etc) please see the
entertainment owner’s manual.

CHAPTER 8: TROUBLESHOOTING
8.12 ENTERTAINMENT TROUBLESHOOTING – PICTURE FUZZY OR UNCLEAR
1) Remove the TV back cover (Figure A) Using a veried good piece of coax cable, hook the coax directly to the TV jack. This bypasses
internal connections for your machine or TV stand (Figure B).
FIGURE A FIGURE B
2) If this does not clear your picture the issue is with the club's signal. Make sure that the coax has a signal strength of at least 10db.
3) If Step 1 does clear your picture, check the internal cables and ttings inside your machine. Make sure you have no damage (kinks, cuts etc)
and no stray wires or poor ttings on the ends of the cables anywhere that the coax cable is connected (Figures C, D, & E). Fittings should have
a clean ush connector and no stray aluminum strands touching the center conductor. Replace or repair any suspect cables.
FIGURE C FIGURE D
4) If nothing is visibly wrong with any of the cables, ttings, or connectors replace the internal coax cables and connectors with known good
parts.

10.4 ADJUSTING THE PEDAL STRAPS AND SEAT
ADJUSTING THE PEDAL STRAPS
The straps are designed to fit your individual foot size and should be adjusted tight enough to keep your foot 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 the strap in place.
ADJUSTING THE U5x-03 SEAT
To determine whether or not the seat requires adjustment, sit on it
and place your feet on the pedals. The user's knees 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 Matrix U5x-03 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, 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 out the
yellow seat post knob. Let the seat slide down to the desired height
and release the yellow seat post knob. Test and re-adjust the seat
height as necessary.
