A full electronically controlled, maintenance free, eddy current break is at the heart of the ergo_lyps. It adjusts the load according to the values determined by the computer to fit the strictly personal requirements, and allows a continuous load value selection from 25 to 400 Watt.
The ergo_lyps switches automatically to stand by mode if it is left switched on and unused for about two hours. This is signaled by three beep sounds and ten times blinking of all the windows, and by the display of “SLP” in window number 2. All other windows are blanked.

Instead the number “0” is displayed under prog No training data will be saved for the “Guest” user when the ergo_lyps is turned off! However, the distance traveled in kilometers will be added to the total kilometer counter (km-total).
A beep sound combined to the downward blinking arrow indicates that the user has reached the “alarm zone”. The ergo_lyps starts reducing the braking power automatically at a rate of 5 Watt per second until the pulse rate of the user Beep falls into the “danger-zone”.

A relaxed body posture is essential for the efficiency and the benefit of the training with the ergo_lyps. You should not be tensed up while training. You should wear loose training garments so that you don't get into sweat too easily and are not constricted by the clothes.

Information about personal safety The ergo_lyps ergometer is intended for use by adults. It is not a toy. Children should only be allowed to train with the ergo_lyps under adult supervision. Persons suffering from any of the following diseases should consult their family physician or a specialist before starting training with the ergo_lyps.
Training Manual training Miscellaneous about manual training Under training program “0” (manual) you can adjust the pedaling effort (braking power) between 25 and 400 Watts by turning the control button No. 6, and also change it during the training in 5 Watt increment to adjust the load to your personal requirements.

Fitness mark / fitness evaluation Fitness mark ergo_lyps can carry out an evaluation your fitness. The measurement principle is based on the fact that the pulse rate falls faster within the first minute following the training session for healthy, well- trained users than for healthy, less trained users.

Biofeedback is thus the translation into perceptible signals of physiological processes occurring in our body, which our senses can barely, or not at all, perceive. The relaxation function is the ergo_lyps ' way of helping you relax and eliminate stress. You should use this option particularly after a physical endurance training.

(see also window no. 6) The intensification program / L ergo_lyps ergometers operate independently of the velocity as shown in the diagram on page 9. The selected braking power (watt) remains constant whether the user pedals slow or fast. The intensification program is the only exception. When running this program the ergo_lyps reacts to the running speed.
The table on page 24 lists the available programs on each ergo_lyps model respectively. reset-key Use display windows nr. 1 / nr. 4 and nr. 6 for setting and functions description.
Select the Cardio-Program C (see page 26) Set the required heart pulse rate, then press control button No. 6 (see below) The selected heart pulse rate remains stored even after the ergo_lyps is switched off.
