CONTROLS AND USAGE
1. To switch on the device, press the on/off-switch (1) on the front of the device (6)
2. Put your feet on the pedals.
3. You can choose to start a preset program by pressing the Mode button rst to switch between
preset programs 1-5, after which you can press the ON-key on the control pad - or to set your
own training program by pressing the ON-key directly.
4. The device will start to move at speed 1. If you do not input anything it will keep operational for
5 minutes by default.
5. With the - and + keys you can set a higher speed.
6. With the TIME-key you can raise the training time by a single minute - up to 15 minutes. If you
press the button after it has been set to 15 minutes, the timer will be set to 1 minute.
The display will intermittently display the speed setting, the working time which is left, the dis-
tance which you would have covered and how much calories you’ve expended. Which value
is shown is indicated by the small lights underneath the screen. By pressing the MODE-button
during operation, you can switch between these shown values manually. If you cycle at a high-
er speed than the speed which is set, the expended calories and distance value will no longer
be correct. You can only show these values while the device is in use.
7. It’s possible to reverse the cycling direction by pressing the REVERSE-button, to train a differ-
ent group of muscles. The device will pause for a few seconds and will then reverse the pedal
rotation using the same speed as set.
8. Once the set time is over, the device will give a single beep and then pedal movement will stop
9. If you give counter-weight or put too much weight on the pedals, they will not be able to move.
After a short while the device will stop working. Press the ON-key again to restart training. In
this case we advise to raise the speed.
IMPORTANT ADVICE DURING TRAINING
1. Avoid excessive strain of your body. Do not train if you feel tired or exhausted. Start your train-
ing schedule at low speeds and short periods if you are not used to physical activity.
2. It is not recommended to eat 30 minutes before or after intensive training sessions.
3. During training, check if you breathe regularly and calmly. To avoid injury by strain, you should
always stretch to warm up the muscle groups you are training before exercising, and cool down
afterwards. Several such exercises are described on the next page.
4. Ensure you drink enough uids during training. During physical duress it is advised to drink
more than the usual daily recommendation of 2 litres.
5. Wear comfortable clothing while using this device, but avoid overly wide clothing as cloth could
get stuck in the moving parts of this device.
