 HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER

IMPORTANT: If the exercise bike has been exposed 

to cold temperatures, allow it to warm to room 

temperature before you plug in the power adapter. 

If you do not do this, you may damage the console 

displays or other electronic components.

Plug the power 

adapter into the 

receptacle on 

the frame of the 

exercise bike. 

Then, plug the 

power adapter 

into an appropri-

ate outlet that is 

properly installed 

in accordance with 

all local codes and 

ordinances.

HOW TO LEVEL THE EXERCISE BIKE

If the exercise 

bike rocks slightly 

on your floor dur-

ing use, turn one 

or both of the lev-

eling feet on the 

rear stabilizer until 

the rocking motion 

is eliminated.

HOW TO ADJUST THE HEIGHT OF THE SEAT

For effective exercise, the seat should be at the proper 

height. As you pedal, there should be a slight bend in 

your knees when the pedals are in the lowest position. 

To adjust the seat, 

first loosen the 

seat post knob a 

few turns and pull 

it outward. Next, 

slide the seat 

post upward or 

downward to the 

desired position, 

and release the 

seat post knob 

into an adjustment 

hole in the seat 

post. Then, tighten 

the seat post knob. 

Move the seat post upward or 

downward slightly to make sure that the seat post 

knob is engaged in one of the adjustment holes. 

HOW TO ADJUST THE HORIZONTAL POSITION OF 

THE SEAT

To adjust the 

horizontal position 

of the seat, loosen 

the seat knob a 

few turns, move 

the seat forward 

or backward to the 

desired position, 

and then firmly 

tighten the seat 

knob.
