Replacing the Console Batteries

When the batteries are low on power, the console display contrast will dim.

When replacing the batteries, make sure the batteries point in the +/- direction shown in the battery bay.

Note: The console uses AA size alkaline batteries (SUM3)

Do not mix old and new batteries.

Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH, etc) batteries.

Be sure to remove the batteries to prevent corrosion damage if you are not going to use the machine for an extended

period of time.

Checking the Drive Belt Tension

To check the Drive Belt tension, the bike needs to be operated. Set the resistance at a medium to high level. Get the

pedals rotating at about 20 RPM. Then suddenly increase the RPM to your maximum ability. If the pedals move normally

with no slipping, the tension is correct. If the Pedals slip, the belt needs to be adjusted.

An "Adjust the Belt Tension" procedure can be found in the Service Manual.
