PROGRAM SAFETY
• Consult your physician before beginning this or any other excercise
routine. Not all exercise progams are suitable for everyone. Discontinue
any exercise that causes you discomfort and consult a medical expert.
• Ensure that the adjustment knobs (saddle height, saddle fore/aft and
handlebar height) are properly secured and do not interfere with range
of motion.
• Children under the age of 16 should not ride the Spinner
®
S1, S3, S5 and
S7 bike.
• Do not insert any object, hands or feet into any openings and do
not expose hands, arms or feet to the drive mechanism or any other
potentially moving parts of the bike.
• The body weight for individuals riding the Spinner
®
S1, S3, S5 or S7 should
not exceed 250 pounds (113.5 kg).
• Spinner bikes have a weighted flywheel and a fixed gear, which does not
allow riders to coast. This means that, in order to stop, you must gradually
slow your pedaling motion rather than stopping abruptly. If you need to
stop immediately, push down on the red resistance knob.
• After use, turn the knob clockwise to increase the resistance so that the
pedals will not rotate freely.
• Never turn the pedals or crank arms by hand, unless lubricating the chain
(see page 10 for details).
• If at any time you feel dizzy or have difficulty breathing, gradually stop
pedaling and carefully dismount the bike.
• Listen to your body, ride at your own pace and set your bike’s resistance
at the level that feels right for you.
• Keep children and pets away from the bike whenever it is in use.
• Stay hydrated. Drink water throughout your ride as needed.
• Pedal without resistance only during warm-up and cool-down.
