See "Specifications" page in this manual for product specific features.

Statement of Purpose: The Life Fitness Recumbent Lifecycle ® Exercise Bike is a speed-independent machine that simulates the movements of riding a bicycle at various speeds and levels of resistance.

CAUTION: Health-related injuries may result from incorrect or excessive use of exercise equipment. Life

Fitness STRONGLY recommends seeing a physician for a complete medical exam before undertaking an exercise program, particularly if the user has a family history of high blood pressure or heart disease, or is over the age of 45, or smokes, has high cholesterol, is obese, or has not exercised regularly in the past year.

If, at any time while exercising, the user experiences faintness, dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath, he or she must stop immediately.

MISE EN GARDE: Des problèmes de santé peuvent être causés par une utilisation incorrecte ou excessive de l'équipement. Life Fitness conseille VIVEMENT de consulter un médecin pour subir un examen médical complet avant de commencer tout programme d'exercice, et tout particulièrement si l'utilisateur a des antécédents familiaux d'hypertension ou de troubles cardiaques, ou s'il a plus de 45 ans, s'il fume, s'il a du cholestérol, s'il est obèse ou n'a pas fait d'exercice régulièrement depuis un an.

Si, pendant l'utilisation de l'appareil, l'utilisateur ressent un malaise, des vertiges, des douleurs ou des difficultés à respirer, il doit cesser immédiatement.

After placing the bike in position, check the unit’s stability by attempting to rock it from side to side. Any slight rocking indicates that the unit must be leveled. Determine which foot is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the jam nut

(A) with an open-end M17 wrench, and rotate the stabilizing foot (B) to lower it. Verify that the bike is stable, and repeat the adjustment as necessary until the unit no longer rocks. Lock the adjustment by tightening the jam nut against the stabilizer bar.

The Achieve (LED) and Inspire (7” LCD) consoles are powered by a rechargeable 6-volt battery. Check the battery by pressing and holding the power on/off key. The console should beep and light up. The Message Center on the

Achieve console will display a prompt to set up a workout. The Inspire console will show a message on the LCD indicating it is initializing (for up to 2 minutes). If a prompt doesn’t appear or initializing doesn’t begin, mount the Recumbent

Lifecycle Exercise Bike and begin pedaling. The console should light up and programming a workout should be possible.

Pedal for 20 minutes at 40 rpm or faster during a workout to charge the battery. The pedal action during workouts keeps the battery charged. If the Lifecycle Exercise Bike is externally powered by the 36V DC power supply, battery maintenance is automatic and pedaling is not required.

The Engage (15” LCD) console is powered by an external AC-DC 36-volt power supply. Make sure to plug the external

power connector to the front of the Recumbent Lifecycle Bike before plugging the AC power in. Plug the AC Input cord into an AC outlet. The console should immediately beep and light up. The Engage console will show a message indicating it is initializing (for up to 2 minutes).

NOTE: If any of the consoles do not light up, contact Life Fitness Customer Service (refer to page one of the manual).

The following connection receptacles are located at the front of the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike: Attachable TV power (C), coaxial cable (D), external power for the Engage console or optional external power (E), and fitness networking (F).

CAUTION: Connectors should easily fit into the receptacles. Forcing a connection may lead to damage to the barrel connector and/or receptacle and may void product warranty.

A properly adjusted seat is extremely important in any bike-oriented exercise activity and the Recumbent Lifecycle

Exercise Bike is no exception. If the seat is too close, excessive strain will be placed on the knees and quadriceps muscles; if the seat is too far, the resulting reaching action will irritate the feet, ankles, hips and knees.

Sit on the seat and place the balls of the feet on the pedals. An optimum position will allow movement through the bottom of the stroke without locking the knees or shifting in the seat. The knees should have a slight bend at the point of fullest leg extension.

If the seat needs to be adjusted, lift the spring-loaded adjusting handle (G) located underneath the nose of the seat. Hold both the handle and nose of the seat with one hand and use the other hand to grab the rear of the seat. Slide the handle and seat forward or backward as necessary to the proper position. Release the pin to complete engagement. Gently slide the seat forward and backward a small distance to ensure it is locked into place. Check the seat distance again and re-adjust it if necessary.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the seat while pedaling the bike. Doing so may result in an uncomfortable workout or cause injury.

MISE EN GARDE : N'essayez pas de régler la place en cyclisme la bicyclette. L'action peut ainsi s'ensuivre dans une séance de mise en forme inconfortable ou provoquer la blessure.

TRAPS

The bike pedal straps keep the user’s shoes on the pedals during a workout. The straps should fit comfortably, but they also should be tight enough to prevent shoes from slipping at any point in the pedaling rotation. Before working out, a user should test and adjust the tightness of the straps.

The safety straps on the foot pedals of the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike can be adjusted to fit a variety of shoe sizes. Use one hand to push the strap latch (H) upward to loosen the ribbed strap (I). Use the other hand to pull the ribbed strap out from underneath the strap latch. Rest the foot on the pedal (J). Wrap the ribbed strap over the foot to determine the desired length. Push the strap latch upward and thread the ribbed strap through the strap latch to select the appropriate slot. Let go of the strap latch to secure position.

The Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike is backed by the engineering excellence of Life Fitness and is one of the most rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today. Life Fitness products have proven to be durable in health clubs, colleges, and military facilities the world over. This same technology, engineering expertise, and reliability have gone into the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike.

NOTE: The safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regularly for damage or wear.

Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are subject to wear as outlined in the Preventive Maintenance Schedule.

REMARQUE : pour conserver un matériel sûr, il convient de l'inspecter régulièrement afin de déceler tout signe d'usure ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pièces défectueuses n'ont pas été réparées ou remplacées.

Portez une attention toute particulière aux pièces qui s'usent, comme indiqué ci-dessous.

The following preventive maintenance tips will keep your Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike operating at peak performance:

• Locate the Recumbent Lifecycle Exercise Bike in a cool, dry place.

• Keep the pedal straps fastened securely when using the bike.

• Clean the top surface of the pedals regularly.

• Use a 100% cotton cloth, lightly moistened with water and mild liquid detergent, to clean the Recumbent Lifecycle

Exercise Bike. Other fabrics, including paper towels, may scratch the surface. Do not use ammonia, chlorine, or acid-based cleaners.

• Clean the frame thoroughly on a regular basis.

NOTE: When cleaning the exterior of the unit, a non-abrasive cleaner and soft cotton cloth are strongly recommended. At no time should cleaner be applied directly to any part of the equipment; apply the non-abrasive cleaner on a soft cloth and then wipe the unit.

Probable Cause

Belt transmitter electrodes are not wet enough to pick up accurate heart rate readings.

Belt transmitter electrodes are not laying flat against the skin.

Belt transmitter needs cleaning.

Belt transmitter is not within 3 feet

(one meter) of the heart rate receiver.

Chest strap battery is depleted.

Wash the belt transmitter with mild soap and water.

Make sure the chest strap transmitter is within three feet (one meter) of the heart rate receiver.

Contact Life Fitness Customer
