1.2 SETUP
C
HECK FOR EXTERNAL POWER
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 network-
ing (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.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
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 mus-
cles; 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 bot-
tom 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 for-
ward and backward a small distance to ensure it is locked into place. Check the seat distance again and re-adjust it if neces-
sary.
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.
