HOW to Charge the Battery

The Life Fitness stairclimber is powered by a rechargeable 6V battery. Check the battery by pressing the START key or by stepping on the pedals. If the battery is charged, the console lights up, making it possible to program a workout. See Section 4, titled The Workouts, for detailed information on programming workouts. If the display console does not light up, the unit must be re-charged. To do so, use the optional plug-in charging unit. The charger should be connected to the stairclimber for a minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. The unit may be used while the battery is being charged.

Life Fitness recommends charging the unit overnight at least once per week to ensure a long life for the battery under the following conditions:

•The stairclimber is operated consistently by users who weigh less than 120 pounds

•Workout durations are consistently less than 20 minutes

•Usage is less than two hours per day

To recharge the stairclimber battery on domestic models, first plug the charger's (A) AC power cord into an electrical outlet. Then, plug the charging cable into the stairclimber jack, which is located at the front of the unit, near the floor.

To recharge the stairclimber battery on international models, first plug the AC power cord (C) into the charger (B). Next, plug the power cord into an electrical outlet. Then, plug the charging cable into the stairclimber jack, which is located at the front of the unit, near the floor.

The plug must be inserted into an electrical outlet that has been properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
