It is recommended, when possible, that an authorized VISION FITNESS retailer assemble your Bike. If you have elected to assemble this product yourself, for your safety please read and follow each of the steps in the enclosed assembly instructions. If you have any questions regarding any part or function of your Bike, contact your retailer.

MOVING

Your VISION FITNESS Bike has transport wheels included for ease of mobility. To move your Semi-Recumbent Bike, firmly grasp the rear of the frame assembly, or the rear of the seat rail. Carefully lift and roll on the transport wheels. To move your Upright Bike, firmly grasp the handlebars, carefully tip toward you, and roll on the transport wheels.

CAUTION:

Our Bikes are well-built and heavy, weighing up to 160 pounds!

STABILIZING THE BIKE

After positioning the Bike in its intended location, check its stability by attempting to rock it side to side. Rocking or wobbling indicates that your Bike needs to be leveled. Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the wing nut at the base of the leveler to allow the leveler to rotate. Now rotate the leveler to the left or right until the Bike is stable. Lock the adjustment by tightening the wing nut against the rear foot support.

PEDAL STRAP ADJUSTMENT

The straps are designed to fit your individual foot size and should be adjusted tight enough to keep your feet from slipping. The pedals include spring-loaded clips for easy adjustment. To tighten the strap, pull down the open end of the strap. To loosen the strap, push down on the top of the clip and pull the strap up. Release the clip to lock in place.

LUMBAR ADJUSTABLE SEAT

One of the principal reasons people do not exercise is because it is uncomfortable for them. On the Semi-Recumbent Bike, the component that has the largest impact on comfort is the seat. If your seat is comfortable, you are more likely to finish your workouts and achieve your fitness goals. With the VISION FITNESS lumbar control system, you can adjust the lumbar (lower back) support specifically for your needs. This will allow a longer, more comfortable workout and will help you achieve your goals sooner.

To adjust the lumbar support, simply turn the knob located near the bottom of the backrest on the seat:

Because of this self-generating feature, the console feedback will fade away when you cease pedaling. The console does, however, use a 9-volt battery as backup to save your feedback information for 30 seconds from the time you stopped pedaling. If you resume pedaling within the 30 seconds, the information will reappear. If the information does not appear within the 30 seconds, your battery may need to be plugged in or replaced.
