MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Inspect and properly tighten all parts of the exercise cycle regularly. To clean the exercise cycle, use a soft, damp cloth. Keep liquids away from the console and keep the console out of direct sunlight to prevent damage to the console.

HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH

If the console does not display correct feedback, the reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed switch, you must first remove the Right Side Shield

(8). Remove the two M4 x 16mm Screws (63) and the M4 x 38mm Screw (66) from the Right Side Shield.

Next, remove the Screws (63, 66 [not shown]) from the Left Side Shield (7). Using an adjustable wrench, turn the Right Pedal (17) counterclockwise and

remove it. Rotate the Right Crank Arm (23) so that it is pointing toward the front of the exercise cycle, and slide off the Right Side Shield.

HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT

If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling, even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest level, the Drive Belt (20) may need to be adjusted. To adjust the Drive Belt, you must first remove the right side shield. Refer to HOW TO ADJUST THE REED

Next, turn the indicated M8 Nylon Locknut (60) until the Drive Belt (20) is properly tightened. Then, reat- tach the right side shield.

PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING

Avoid moving your hands while using the pulse sen- sor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart rate readings. Do not hold the metal contacts too tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate read- ings.

For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the metal contacts for about 15 seconds.

For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep

the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be cleaned with a soft cloth—never use alcohol, abrasives, or chemicals.
