Plug the power
adapter (A) into
the receptacle on
the frame of the
rower. Insert the	A
appropriate plug
adapter into the
power adapter if
necessary. Then,

Then, fine-tune
the resistance
manually, by
moving the

	tion, and then
	release the foot-	E
	rest bracket so	C
	that the tab (E)
	engages a slot
	in the foot pad.
	Then, tighten the strap over your foot.

Adjust the other foot pad (C) in the same way. Make sure that both foot pads are in the same position.

HOW TO ADJUST THE CONSOLE VIEWING ANGLE

To adjust the	G
