Breaking in the Equipment

Precor equipment does not require an actual break-in period. However, moving components such as belts, gears, and bearings can settle while the equipment is being stored or shipped. This can cause the equipment to operate with a small amount of roughness or noise when it starts up for the first time.

The equipment usually returns to smooth operation after a day or two of normal use. If it does not, contact your dealer for assistance. For more information, refer to Obtaining Service.

DANGER

Maintenance

To keep the equipment functioning properly, perform the minor maintenance tasks in this section at the intervals shown on the maintenance checklist. Failure to maintain the equipment as described in this section could void the Precor Limited Warranty.

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, always disconnect the equipment from its power source before cleaning it or performing any maintenance tasks. If the equipment is self-powered but also uses the optional power adapter, disconnect the adapter.

Chapter 2

Daily Cleaning

Precor recommends that you clean the equipment before and after each exercise session. To remove dust and dirt from the equipment, wipe all exposed surfaces with a soft cloth that you have moistened with one of the following cleaners:

 A solution of 30 parts of water to 1 part of Simple Green®

Storing the Chest Strap

If you purchased the optional heart rate chest strap, store it in a place where it remains free of dust and dirt (for example, in a closet or drawer). Be sure to protect the chest strap from extremes in temperature. Do not store it in a place that may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F (0° C).

To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface thoroughly with a clean towel.

40 Assembling and Maintaining the RBK 615 Recumbent Exercise Bike

Moving the Equipment

The equipment is very heavy. If you plan to move it to a new location, obtain the help of an adult assistant and use proper lifting techniques. If the equipment includes roller wheels on one end, use the wheels to reduce the load on yourself and your assistant.

To move the exercise bike:

1. Disconnect, unplug, and remove all external connections

(television, Ethernet, and power).

2. Lift the rear feet to tip the bike forward onto its roller

wheels.

3. Push the bike into its new location.

4. Lower the rear feet to the floor.

Long-Term Storage

If you do not expect anyone to use the equipment for a long time, perform the following tasks to prepare it for storage:

 If it has a power cord, disconnect the cord.  If it has an optional power adapter, connect the adapter to

prevent damage to the internal battery.

 Position it so that it will not become damaged and will not

interfere with people or other equipment.

Chapter 3

Self-Powered Features

Important: This chapter of the manual describes Precor fitness equipment that can operate without being connected to AC power. This includes units equipped with P30 or P10 consoles. However, P80 consoles must be connected to AC power through their power supplies to operate. For this reason, this chapter does not apply to units equipped with P80 consoles.

On self-powered equipment, the system initializes and displays the Welcome screen when a user starts exercising. A minimum rate of motion must be maintained for the banner to appear, as shown in the following table. When a person meets the requirements, the power that is generated allows the equipment to function properly.

Table 1. Minimum requirements for operation

Equipment Rate of Motion

AMT 40 strides per minute (SPM)

EFX 40 strides per minute (SPM)

Climber 30 steps per minute

Bike 20 revolutions per minute (RPM)

Informational displays appear when the battery is low or when the rate of motion drops below the minimum requirements. The display explains what to do to retain power. If the messages are ignored, the equipment begins shutdown procedures to maintain the charge of the battery. Refer to Informational Displays Prior to Shutdown.

An optional power adapter can be purchased and provides sustained power to the equipment. If you plan to change the club settings on a unit equipped with a P30 or P10 console, the power adapter is highly recommended. To purchase the optional power adapter, check with your dealer. Refer to Obtaining Service.

42 Assembling and Maintaining the RBK 615 Recumbent Exercise Bike

Informational Displays Prior to Shutdown

The equipment saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode. If the user does not maintain the minimum rate of motion, a 30-second shutdown process begins.

In this mode, the console displays a countdown indicator and ignores all keypresses. If no movement is detected or the rate of motion remains below the minimum, the indicator changes as the countdown continues.

Note: The user can resume exercising before the countdown period elapses and the workout will continue from the point at which it was paused.

Important: If the equipment is connected to a CSAFE master device, it follows a slightly different shutdown process. Ten seconds before the equipment shuts down, it ends the exercise session and displays a reset message while it disconnects from the CSAFE master device. It ignores all keypresses during these last ten seconds.

Symptoms of a Low Battery

If no one has used the equipment for an extended period of time, the battery may need recharging.

Symptoms of a low battery include the following:

 A flickering or erratic display  Loss of user and program information after the user stops

exercising, without any display of a workout summary or a notification of pending shutdown

 Inability to decrease the incline setting (if any)

Important: To maintain a constant power source, use the optional power adapter.

Self-Powered Features 43

Using the Optional Power Adapter

After connecting the power adapter to the equipment, plug the opposite end into the appropriate power source (120 V or 240 V).

CAUTION: When the optional power adapter is in use, make sure that the power supply cord does not create a safety hazard. Keep it out of the way of traffic and moving parts. If the power supply cord or power conversion module is damaged, it must be replaced.

The control console functions differently when the power adapter is connected. Because the power adapter provides a constant source of power, a user can pause for brief periods without initiating shutdown procedures. When the pause time limit expires and the user has not resumed exercising, the console returns to the Welcome screen. The default pause time is 30 seconds for all fitness equipment. Refer to the manual for your control console for instructions on setting or changing the pause time limit. To learn how to install the power adapter, refer to The Optional Power Adapter Kit.

The Optional Power Adapter Kit

If you purchase the optional power adapter, you must also purchase the internal cable kit. The kit supplies the cable, bracket, and fasteners that connect the power adapter to the lower electronics board.

CAUTION: The internal cable kit must be installed by authorized service personnel. Do not attempt installation on your own as you could void the Precor Limited Warranty. For more information, refer to Obtaining Service.

Important: If this equipment includes a P80 console, the optional power adapter and the internal cable kit must still be installed to provide continuous power to the base unit and support its internal battery.

Once the internal cable kit is installed, you can plug the optional power adapter into the equipment. Plug the opposite end into the appropriate power source for your equipment (120 V or 240 V). Review the safety instructions found at the beginning of this manual before using the power adapter.

44 Assembling and Maintaining the RBK 615 Recumbent Exercise Bike

Replacing the Battery

The equipment’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. Refer to Obtaining Service.

CAUTION: The battery stored inside the equipment contains hazardous materials and must be disposed of according to Hazardous Waste Regulations. Refer to Hazardous Materials and Proper Disposal.
