HOW TO USE THE SCHWINN IC BIKE

You have full control over the levels of resistance integrated into your workout.
Typically, lower resistance levels enable you to move at a faster pace, placing
increased demand on your cardiovascular system. Higher resistance levels
will typically deliver more of a muscle/endurance workout at lower RPMs. But
everyone is different! So experiment and find the beginning level of resistance
that is comfortable for you.

knob conveniently located underneath the handlebars (Fig.
1).
To increase resistance, turn the resistance control knob
clockwise (+). To decrease resistance, turn the resistance
control knob counter-clockwise (–). Resistance adjustments
can be easily made at any time.
n Emergency Brake Activation
Your IC bike features an emergency brake. If you wish
to stop the flywheel rotation (and therefore the pedal
rotation), simply press DOWN firmly on the red brake lever
that extends from the resistance adjustment knob (Fig. 1).
Continue applying pressure until the wheel has come to a
complete stop.
n Seat adjustment
Proper seat height helps ensure maximum exercise efficiency
and comfort, while reducing the risk of injury.

Adjusting the seat forward or backward allows you to work
different lower body muscle groups.
1. Place one pedal in the upward position, then place your foot
in the toe clip and center the ball of your foot over the center
of the pedal. Your leg should be slightly bent at the
knee (Fig. 2).
