moisture and dust. Do not put the exercise
bike in a garage or covered patio, or near

with at least 2 ft. (0.6 m) of clearance around

worn parts immediately.

intended only as an exercise aid in determin-
ing heart rate trends in general.
12. Always keep your back straight while using
the exercise bike; do not arch your back.
