GETTING STARTED

Welcome to a new breed of exercise equipment— xRide™ by Octane Fitness! You will soon be experiencing
a great ride as you challenge yourself with its sophisticated electronics and the variety of pre-programmed
workouts. Getting started is easy; just move one of the moving handlebars toward the back of the unit and have
a seat. Check out the program descriptions on page 11, and you are on your way!

Adjusting the Seat

The comfort and effectiveness of the workout on the xR6000 begins with proper seat position. Both the height of
the seat and the tilt of the seat back on the xR6000 seat are adjustable, ensuring that you can find just the right
position to suit your preference and deliver the best possible workout.
Note: When adjusting seat height or tilt, make sure you hear and feel the adjustment mechanism lock
into position.
Adjusting seat height
Adjust seat height on the xR6000 Series using the handle located just
under the front edge of the seat. While bracing yourself with your
feet on the platform, lift up on the handle and use your legs to move
the seat into a comfortable height. Place your feet on the pedals and
pedal forward, stopping when one pedal is at its lowest point. Check
the position of your leg on this pedal; your knee should be slightly
bent. If your leg is fully extended, or your knee is bent too much,
readjust the seat height until you have the proper leg extension.
Adjusting seat back tilt
Adjust the tilt of the seat back on the xR6000 Series using the handle
located just under the left edge of the seat. You may choose one of
five positions, with position 1 being the most upright and position
5 being the most reclined. To adjust, lift up on the yellow handle
to disengage the tilt lock. Press back to recline or shift your weight
slightly forward to tilt the seat back up. Release the handle, then shift
your weight slightly until you hear the tilt lock pop into position.
Note: Once you have adjusted the tilt of the seat back to a comfortable position, pedal forward and
recheck your leg extension. You may need to readjust the seat height to compensate for the
change in tilt.
Tip:
Be sure to record the position numbers of both the seat height (1-20) and the seat back tilt (1-5)
so that you can quickly set the seat when you are ready to begin your next workout.

User Set-Up Functions

Many standard features and controls of the xR6000 can be customized to fit personal preferences or the workout
environment. These adjustments are easily completed and are saved as the new standard for the machine—you
don't need to reset them for each use.
To access the User Set-up functions, press and hold both the Up Arrow () and Down Arrow () keys for three
seconds, or until you hear a beep. The customizable functions are displayed in sequence in the Message Center;
use the Enter key to toggle through the available options (shown in the matrix display) for each function, and
press the Up Arrow () or Down Arrow () key to select a setting and move to the next function. To exit without
changing any values, press Pause Clear twice.
