POWER CORD
Plug the socket end of the transformer cord into the connector, just above the rear support in the centre of the frame, and the other end into the wall socket. To prevent damage to the connector, we recommend you tie the cord to the transportation wheel support next to the connector.
NOTE!
The device must be connected to a grounded wall socket. Do not use extension wires when connecting the device to the power source. Make sure the power cord does not run underneath the device.
Always switch off the power and uplug this appliance from the electrical outlet immediately after using.
ADJUSTMENTS
Set the right height for you; the basic rule is that the arch of the foot reaches reaches the the pedal at its lowest point with the leg almost straight. Adjust the seat height by loosening the seat locking knob. Hold on to the seat with one hand and, using your other hand, pull the locking knob outwards in order to enable free seat tube movement upwards and downwards. Once the height is right, let go of the knob and the seat locks into place. Turn the locking knob clockwise to tighten.
NOTE! Always make sure that the locking knob is properly fastened before starting to exercise!
To adjust the horizontal seat position forward and back, loosen the locking screws under the seat. You can also adjust inclination from here. Release the seat lock by turning the locking lever located under the seat anti- clockwise. Adjust the seat to the desired position and tighten the locking lever by turning it clockwise.
HANDLEBAR SETUP
Loosen the locking screw on the front of the handlebar support and find the right angle at which to position the handlebar. Tighten the locking screw. The design of
O W N E R ’ S M A N U A L
the handlebar allows you to exercise either in an upright position or with the upper body leaning forward. Remember, however, always to keep your back straight.
Adjust the handlebar height by loosening the locking knob on the handlebar support tube. Pull the locking knob outwards so that the handlebar can be moved freely up and down. Release the knob once the handlebar is at the required height. The handlebar support tube will click into place. Tighten the locking knob by turning it clockwise.
CONSOLE INCLINATION ADJUSTMENT
Set the inclination of the meter so that it corresponds to your height and exercise position.
ADJUSTMENT OF SUPPORT FEET
If the equipment is not stable, adjust the adjustment screws below the support feet as necessary.
EXERCISING
Working out with this device is excellent aerobic exercise, the principle being that the exercise should be suitably light, but of long duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent on its
You should exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining this level requires a few exercise sessions each week. Once the basic condition has been reached, it is easily improved, simply by increasing the number of exercise sessions. You should start slowly at a low pedaling speed and low resistance, because for an overweight person strenuous exercise may subject the heart and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness improves, resistance and pedaling speed can be increased gradually.
HEART RATE
No matter what your goal, you’ll get the best results by training at the right level of effort, and the best measure is your own heart rate.
HEART RATE MEASUREMENT WITH HANDGRIP SENSORS
Heart rate is measured from the hands using the sensors located on the handlebars. The sensors measure electric impulses, which are formed when a person’s heart beats. Measurement is started by touching both handlebar sensors simultaneously. To ensure reliable heart rate measurement, skin must be slightly moist and skin contact with sensors must be continuous. If skin is too dry or too wet, the heart rate measurement operation from the hands is less reliable. Try to keep your upper body and palms relaxed and still.
