cycle regularly. To clean the exercise cycle, use a
soft, damp cloth. To prevent damage to the console,
keep liquids away from the console and keep the con-
s
ole out of direct sunlight.
HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH
If the console does not display correct feedback, the
reed switch should be adjusted. To adjust the reed
switch, the Right Side Shield (27) must be removed.
Using an adjustable wrench, turn the Right Pedal (21)
counterclockwise and remove it. Next, remove the
Seat Post Knob (20). Next, remove the M4 x 25mm
Screws (65). Turn the Right Crank Arm (24) so it is
pointing toward the front of the exercise cycle and
then slide off the Right Side Shield.
Next, locate the Reed Switch (46). Turn the Right
Crank Arm (24) until the Magnet (30) is aligned with
the Reed Switch. Loosen, but do not remove, the indi-
cated Screw (57). Slide the Reed Switch slightly clos-
er to or away from the Magnet. Then, retighten the
Screw.
T
urn the right crank arm for a moment. Repeat until
the console displays correct feedback. When the reed
switch is correctly adjusted, reattach the right side
shield, the seat post knob, and the right pedal.
HOW TO ADJUST THE DRIVE BELT
If you can feel the pedals slip while you are pedaling,
even when the resistance is adjusted to the highest
level, the Drive Belt (47) may need to be adjusted. To
adjust the Drive Belt, first remove both side shields
(see HOW TO ADJUST THE REED SWITCH at the
left).
Next, turn the indicated M8 Nylon Locknut (63) until
the Drive Belt (47) is properly tightened. Then, reat-
tach the side shields.
PULSE SENSOR TROUBLESHOOTING
Avoid moving your hands while using the pulse sen-
sor. Excessive movement may interfere with heart
rate readings. Do not hold the metal contacts too
tightly; doing so may interfere with heart rate read-
ings.
For the most accurate heart rate reading, hold the
metal contacts for about 15 seconds.
For optimal performance of the pulse sensor, keep
the metal contacts clean. The contacts can be
cleaned with a soft cloth—
never use alcohol,
abrasives, or chemicals.
