Assembly / Owner's Manual
Fully charge HR device and activate. Be sure any protective cover has been
removed from HR sensors. Make sure sensors are directly against skin and
contact area is wet.
If HR device has replaceable batteries, install new batteries (the provided
heart rate armband does not have replacement batteries).
Try moving unit away from sources of interference (TV, Microwave, etc).
If interference is eliminated and HR does not function, replace HR device.
If the above steps do not resolve the problem, contact Customer Service (if
inside US/Canada) or your local distributor (if outside US/Canada).
The Pedals may be "bottomed out". Safely grasp the Static
Handlebars and apply your weight to the heel of the higher foot. While still
grasping the Static Handlebar, lean back slightly applying more weight onto
the heel. Once the Pedals begin to move, resume your intended workout.
Remove material from fan. Be sure not to move the Handlebars, Legs or
Pedals.
Be aware that the Fan, Handlebars, Legs and Pedals are con-
nected and when either of these parts move the other does as
well.
If necessary, detach the Shrouds to help with removal. Do not operate
machine until Shrouds have been replaced.
Adjust levelers until machine is level.
Adjustment may not be able to compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.
Move machine to level area.
Tightly secure all hardware on the Pedal Arms and Handlebar Arms.
Slightly loosen Caps on Crank Arms

Canada) or your local distributor (if outside US/Canada).
