Read the entire Operation Manual before setting up the Lifecycle exercise bike.

WHERE TO PLACE THE LIFECYCLE EXERCISE BIKE

Following all safety instructions in Section 1.1, move the bike to the location in which it will be used. See Section 7, titled Specifications, for the dimensions of the footprint. Allow a distance of 16 inches, or 41 centimeters, between the widest part of the bike and other objects on either side. Allow a distance of 3 feet, or 1 meter, between the front or rear of the bike to any other objects.

HOW TO STABILIZE THE LIFECYCLE EXERCISE BIKE

After placing the bike in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it from side to side. Any slight rocking indicates that the unit must be leveled. Determine which foot is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the jam nut with an open-end 9/16-inch wrench, and rotate the stabilizing foot to lower it. Verify that the bike is stable, and repeat the adjustment as necessary until the unit no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment by tightening the jam nut against the stabilizer bar.

HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT

It is important to adjust the seat to an optimal height for pedaling on the Lifecycle Exercise Bike. Pedaling with the seat too low can place excessive strain on the knees and quadriceps muscles. Pedaling with the seat too high can irritate the feet, ankles, hips, and knees. To determine whether or not the seat requires adjustment, sit on it and place the balls of the feet on the pedals. The knee should bend slightly when the pedal is at the lowest point of its rotation. It should be possible to pedal without locking the knees or shifting in the seat.

The bike features a vertical ratchet seat adjustment system, which makes it easy and safe to change the height of the seat quickly. To raise the seat, either lift the body so that there is no weight on the seat, or get off the bike. Then, simply pull the seat upward to the desired height, and let it lock into place. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.

To lower the seat, first get off the bike. Holding the seat, pull up the ad- justment lever in front of the seat post to unlock the post, let the seat slide down to the desired height, and release the lever to lock the post into place. Test and re-adjust the seat height as necessary.

CAUTION: When using the height adjustment mechanism to change the height of a partially raised seat, hold the seat to prevent it from falling on the hand.

MISE EN GARDE - Lorsque vous utilisez le mécanisme de réglage de la hauteur pour monter une selle déjà partielle- ment surélevée, maintenez cette dernière afin qu'elle ne vous tombe pas sur la main.
