DEAR TUNTURI OWNER
Welcome to the world of Tunturi exercising!
Your choice shows that you really want to invest in your well-being and
condition; it also shows you really value high quality and style. With
Tunturi Fitness Equipment, you’ve chosen a high-quality, safe and
motivating product as your training partner.
Tunturi developed Interactive Electronics (T.I.E.) represent the absolute
pinnacle in exercise equipment. T.I.E. offers you a whole new kind of
meter, a user interface that combines individual, versatile and
motivational features of exercising.
Alpha 200 T.I.E. user interface is specially developed for Tunturi
ergometers to offer you many motivating forms of exercise. You can test
your fitness, design your own exercise profiles, and use e.g. constant
effort and heart-rate programs. There are also several pre-programed
exercise profiles, each with a different goal. Whatever your goal in
training, we are certain this is the training equipment to get you there.
This guide is an essential part of your exercise equipment. Start
familiarising yourself with the Tunturi T.I.E. interface by carefully
reading this manual. It offers the information you need for both the
use and maintenance of your equipment. This manual is well worth
keeping, as you may need these instructions later on.

1. INSTALLATION ::
Push the T.I.E. interface module carefully into place at the top of the
handlebar support tube. The loose screws hanging from the metal
fastening plate on the bottom of the T.I.E. module must enter the holes
at the top end of the handlebar. Make sure that the module is correctly in
place and tighten the fastening screws.
1.1 Turning the user interface on and off
The user interface turns itself on when the device is connected to the
mains current. When the user interface has not been used for five
minutes (no heart-rate registered, no keys pressed, no pedalling), it
automatically switches itself to energy-saver state. Alpha 200 is returned
to its active state by pressing any key, starting to pedal or sending heartrate signals to the unit. When you restart, Alpha 200 automatically starts
from Training function.
:: Protect Alpha 200 from excess sunlight, because that may fade
the interface box and surface membrane colours. Please also be
careful not to allow Alpha 200 to come into contact with
water. A sharp blow may damage the interface.
:: You can set your language in the Extra function.
