Once your Recumbent Bike is assembled, make sure that your workout space has a solid, level surface with
plenty of space around it. We recommend placing a mat under your bike to protect your flooring.

When exercising, keep your back straight and your head in a neutral position to minimize neck and upper
back strain. When pedaling do not lock out your knees, at the bottom of the pedaling motion there should
be a slight bend in the knee. Always try to pedal the bike with a smooth and rhythmic motion.

The bike provides a completely smooth and natural feeling, that minimizes the impact on your hips, knees
and ankles while providing a superior aerobic and muscle toning workout. The durable steel frame and
transport wheels make the bike mobile and easy to use.

IMPORTANT:
• This bike is not recommended for children.
• Always make sure that you feel balanced and secure.
• Always use your bike on a clean, solid and level surface.

The pulse window on your Computer works in conjunction with the pulse sensors found 
on the rear handlebar. When you are ready to read your pulse: 

1) Place both hands firmly on the pulse sensors.

For the most accurate reading, it is important 
to use both hands.

2) Look at your pulse window. The small heart 

will begin to blink.

3) Your estimated heart rate will appear in the 

window approximately 6 seconds after you 
grasp the pulse sensors.

4) Refer to the Target Heart Rate Zone Chart 

found on page 18 of this manual. For additional 
information about the importance of working 
within certain heart rate ranges, see pages 
16 and 17 – Measuring Your Heart Rate.

5) This estimate is not exact and persons with 

medical conditions and/or a specific need 
for accurate heart rate monitoring should 
not rely on the estimations provided.
