Checking the Battery Charge
1. Using your multimeter, touch the red lead to the positive terminal
a diluted, non-min of the battery and the black lead to the negative terminal.
2. If the voltage level is less than 6.1 VDC, charge the battery.
Charging the Battery Back-Up
The FreeClimber is selfpowered (cordless) with a rechargeable battery back-up.
Typically, the FreeClimber can be operated without plugging in the external power
supply. If, however, the console flickers during operation or the console display
does not light up while using the machine, then use the external power supply to
recharge the battery back-up.
The external power supply is supplied with the unit and plugs into a standard
115 volt, 15 amp outlet, or a 220 volt, 10 amp outlet. (All major voltage plugs are
available.) The plug-in for the external power supply is located in the front of the
machine at the base
Plug the wall pack external power supply into the connector and charge the battery
for approximately 24 hours and then recheck it. It is okay to use the machine while
the external power supply is connected.
The console will power on as user starts to move the pedals of the machine, and
will stay lit for up to 60 seconds in pause mode. The console will power off after
60 seconds of stopping exercise. The console will power on and remain powered
whenever the external power supply is connected.
