CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.2 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The Matrix U7xe-01 Bike must be AC powered. These units can be
daisy chained together, up to 4 units per dedicated 15 amp circuit,
using a Matrix daisy chain cord adapter (sold separately).
For your safety and for the performance of your Matrix bike, the
ground on your circuits must be non looped. Please refer to NEC
articles 210-21 and 210-23. Any alterations to the standard Matrix
power cords will void all warranties.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
The Matrix U7xe-01 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

Preventative maintenance and daily cleaning will prolong the life and look
of your MATRIX U7xe-01 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.

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

3.4 TOUCH SCREEN CARE & CLEANING
TOUCH SCREEN CARE AND CLEANING
* The touch screen requires very little maintenance. We recommend that you periodically clean the touch screen surface with a dry soft cloth.
If necessary, we recommend the usage of Alcohol or Isopropyl Alcohol for difficult stains or sanitary purposes.
* It is very important to avoid using any other chemical on the touch screen.
* Always dampen the cloth and clean the screen. Do not spray the cleaning agent on the screen itself, the drips can seep into the display or
stain the bezel.
* After cleaning, make sure the surface is dry. There should not be any left over solvent to seep into the display.
* It is very important to handle the touch screen with care. Do not use excessive force when cleaning.
* Do not use any sharp materials to clean the touch screen surfaces.
* Do not use high pressure air, water, or steam to clean the touch screen surface.

4.2 WORKOUT SETUP STEPS
CHAPTER 4: CONSOLE OVERLAY AND WORKOUT DESCRIPTION
To set up a workout, press the touch screen over the program you
would like to use and then follow the prompts to begin your workout.
GO - Press to immediately begin a workout. Workout, resistance
level, and time will automatically go to default settings. Pressing GO
will not prompt user for age, weight, or level settings.
MANUAL - Manual allows the user to input more information while
defining their own workout. Calorie expenditure will be more accurate
when inputting information in Manual than by pressing GO.
FAT BURN - Fat burn is a level based program that is designed to
help users burn fat through various resistance level changes.
ROLLING HILLS - The Rolling Hills program is a level based
program that automatically adjusts the resistance level to simulate real
terrain.
INTERVALS - The Intervals program is a level based program that
automatically adjusts the resistance of the machine from low to high
intensity settings at regular intervals.
RANDOM - Random is a level based workout that randomly adjusts
the resistance of the machine.
TARGET HEART RATE - The Matrix U7xe-01 bike comes with
standard digital contact heart rate sensors and are POLAR telemetry
compatible. The heart rate control workout mode allows the user to
program their desired heart rate zone, and the bike will automatically
adjust the level based upon the user's heart rate. The heart rate
zone is calculated using the following equation: (220-Age)8%=target
heart rate zone. The user must wear a POLAR telemetric strap or
continually hold onto the contact heart rate grips for this workout.
Locate the metal sensors on the handlebars of the bike. Notice that
there are two separate pieces of metal on each grip. You must be
making contact with both pieces of each grip to get an accurate heart
rate reading. You can grab these sensors in any program to view
your current heart rate.
FITNESS TEST -The Cooper Fitness Test measures
cardiovascular fitness and proves an estimated sub-maximal VO2
result. It is based on power output according to ACSM standards and
was developed by the Cooper Institute© (www.cooperinstitute.org).
User RPMs must remain between 60-80 RPM during the test. The
test will end when the user can no longer maintain this speed. Use of
a heart rate strap is optional but provides more data.
The test starts at a low intensity level and gradually increases in
intensity (difficulty) every 2 minutes. As it increases, the user must
maintain 60-80 RPM to advance to the next level. The test could take
upwards of 30+ minutes for very fit individuals. Once the test ends
a recovery period (cool down) will begin and the user's results are
calculated and displayed. Results are based on the number of stages
completed. Incline will not be adjustable during the test.
STAGE COMPLETE:
1 Well Below Average
2 Well Below Average
3 Below Average
4 Below Average
5 Average
6 Average
7 Above Average
8 Above Average
9+ Well Above Average
CONSTANT WATTS - Constant Watts is a unique program that
allows you to vary your cadence or RPM and the bike's resistance
level will adjust accordingly to your selected goal. The quicker you
pedal, the less resistance for the goal selected.
