HOW TO OPERATE THE
INDOOR CYCLE

RESISTANCE ADJUSTMENT:

The resistance adjustment can be set precisely and regulated in fine increments according to the requirements of
the cyclist using the resistance adjustment knob with a range of motion of 300°. The resistance in % (where 0% is no
resistance and 100% is maximum resistance) is also displayed on the indoor cycle computer display.
To increase the resistance, turn the resistance adjustment knob clockwise. To decrease the resistance, turn it counter-
clockwise. For a magnetic brake system, like the one fitted to this indoor cycle, the magnetic resistive effect also
increases with pedalling frequency.
Never pedal backwards under resistance, as this can loosen the screws between the pedals and the crank arm and the
two may even become detached. To stop the flywheel during use, the resistance knob/emergency brake knob must be
pressed down. During training, please make sure your shoes are placed in the toe clips (cages) provided or if you are
using cycling shoes, that they are connected with the SPD cleats.
The indoor cycle does not have a free-moving flywheel. The flywheel is firmly connected to the pedals and
does not stop independently if the user stops pedalling. Please always check your movements and reduce
speed in a controlled manner to stop or simply press the red resistance/emergency brake knob down to quickly
slow down the movement and in so doing bring the flywheel to a stop and suspend the training session.
If the emergency brake has been activated, it can only be disengaged again when the flywheel has come
to a complete standstill and the pressure has been removed from the pedals.

For safety reasons, please always make sure you pedal in a controlled manner and
adjust your pedalling frequency to your own cycling capabilities.

MOVING THE INDOOR CYCLE:

It is recommended that 2 people move the indoor cycle. In order to prevent accidents and damage to the plug-in sockets
of the handlebars it is necessary to firmly fix the vertical handlebar adjustment before the wheel is tilted. Please take extra
care when moving the indoor cycle over uneven surfaces. A second person is advisable here, to prevent the cycle from
tilting to one side.
Allow a minimum safety distance away from the nearest equipment of at least 50 cm to the left and right
and 90 cm to the front and rear.
Check the stability of the indoor cycle where it is to
be operated and if necessary adjust the levelling feet
underneath the front or rear stabilizers to ensure the
desired stability.
IMPORTANT!
Please do not unscrew the levelling feet more than 1 cm!
Emergency brake = press down red resistance/emergency knob.
