HOW TO SET UP THE RECUMBENT BIKE
HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE RECUMBENT
BIKE
Before moving the recumbent bike, make sure
that the power cord is unplugged. Note: If a CATV
cable is connected to the recumbent bike, it may be
necessary to disconnect the cable if the recumbent
bike will be moved far.
Due to the size and weight of the recumbent bike,
moving it requires two persons. While one person
lifts the indicated end, firmly hold the handlebar and
tip the recumbent bike forward until it rolls on the
front wheels. Carefully move the recumbent bike to
the desired location and then lower it back to the
level position.
jury, use extreme caution while moving the recumbent bike. Do not attempt to move the recumbent bike over uneven surfaces.
If the recumbent bike rocks slightly during use, turn
the Levelling feet under the rear of the frame until the
rocking motion is eliminated.

FEATURES OF THE CONSOLE
The Basic console offers an impressive array of features to help you get the most from your exercise.
When the manual mode of the console is selected, the
resistance of the pedals can be changed with a touch
of a button. As you exercise, the console will provide
continuous exercise feedback. You can even measure
your heart rate using the built-in pulse sensor.
A variety of preset workout programs is also offered.
Each program automatically controls the resistance of
the pedals as it guides you through an effective workout.
In addition, the console offers three pulse programs
that adjust the resistance of the pedals to keep your
heart rate near target levels during your workouts, and
a unique fitness test program that measures your VO2
max level. Note: The pulse programs and the fitness
test program require the use of a Polar®-compatible
chest pulse sensor (not included).
To use the QUICK START mode of the console,
follow the steps beginning on page 10. To use a
preset program, see pages 12 to 16. To use a pulse
program, see page 17. To use the fitness test pro
