Remove the fuse holder, to the right of the switch, by pushing the lever. Replace the blown fuse with a new one as supplied (3.15A (F). Fit the fuse holder back into its housing, making sure it clicks in properly.
Recharging the battery (700 SP and 500 SP versions) The 700 SP and 500 SP versions have to be pedalled to keep them turned on; if, when you stop moving, the control panel switches off without warning, the battery will have to be recharged. If, 30 seconds after starting movement, the resistance of the equipment is exceptionally high even at effort level 1, recharge the battery with the charger. Warning Do not use the equipment while the battery is recharging.
Troubleshooting Below is a list of problems that may arise during normal use of the equipment. If the described remedies do not solve the problem, contact the Technical Support Service. Problem Cause Remedy Equipment doesn’t switch on Mains power failure (700 and 500 versions). Check the power supply at the wall socket used by the equipment by plugging in an appliance that definitely works. Power supply cable damaged (700 and 500 versions). Contact the Technogym Technical Support Service.
Troubleshooting Problem Cause Remedy Too noisy Equipment not properly levelled. Check the position and level the adjustment feet. Damaged bearings. Contact the Technogym Technical Support Service. The belt slips. Contact the Technogym Technical Support Service. Data incorrect or unreliable with equipment running Blocked key on keypad. If the problem persists, contact the Technogym Technical Support Service. Equipment next to source of radio interference (e.g. electrical domestic appliances).
Troubleshooting Problem Cause Remedy Problems in monitoring heart rate with the chest band Other transmitters situated nearby. Move the equipment far enough away to stop signal interference (minimum distance between two units 80 cm). Strong interference sources nearby. Find the interference source (e.g. an electrical domestic appliance) and move it away, or move the equipment. Worn heart rate monitor chest band. Change the chest band. Chest band transmitter not making proper skin contact.
Technical assistance The Technogym Technical Support Service provides: - telephone consultation information about which services are covered by the warranty and which must be paid for on-site servicing supply of original spare parts. Technogym Technical Support Service tel: 0547 650650 fax: 0547 650150 email: support@technogym.com When you contact the Technogym Technical Support Service you must give the following information: - model, date of purchase, serial number, precise description of the problem.
Storage If a long period of non-use is expected, you are advised to store the equipment in the following way: - in a clean dry place, with a dust cover; at a room temperature between -10°C and 70°C and relative humidity between 20% and 90%. For better storage, use the original packing materials.
Disposing of the equipment always make sure that the equipment cannot become a hazard in any way, and do not leave it in places where children play. As a precaution, when the equipment is unused for a long time or when you want to dispose of it, unplug it from the mains. Disposing of the equipment on open ground, in public areas, or in private areas used by the public is prohibited.
Switching on and off To turn 700 and 500 versions of the equipment on, switch the switch to “I” position. To turn 700 SP and 500 SP versions of the equipment on, start pedalling. When switched on, a beep sounds and all the control panel LEDs light up. After a quick system check (reset), the equipment is ready for use.
Switching on and off To turn 700 and 500 versions of the equipment off, switch the main switch to the “0” position. If the equipment isn’t going to be used for a long time, as well as turning it off you should also pull the plug out of the wall socket. Warning The switch is for turning the equipment on and off but does not isolate it completely from the mains voltage, even in the “0” position (off). For complete isolation you must unplug the power supply plug.
Monitoring the heart rate The equipment is able to measure heart rate trends, in two different ways: - with a device applied to the handle (hand sensor), that switches on when you grip the handles in the sensor region (in 700 and 700 SP versions); - with a chest band with a heart rate transmitter (Polar T31). There must be no more than one transmitter in the reception range: otherwise the receiver may receive different signals at the same time and give incorrect heart readings.
Monitoring the heart rate Heart rate readings will not be accurate near electromagnetic radiation sources (TVs, cellphones, etc.). Should you have any doubts about the accuracy of the readings, contact the Technical Support Service. Heart rate per minute The following table shows the optimum heart rate levels in relation to age and the goal to be achieved. Theoretical maximum heart rate (100%) is calculated on the basis of age using the formula: 220 - age.
Monitoring the heart rate To read the graph, simply find your age on the horizontal axis and scan up the vertical until you reach the 60%, 70% and 90% values. Aerobic exercise performed at a heart rate between 60% and 70% mainly burns fat as an energy source. When doing aerobic exercise at a heart rate of 70% to 90% the cardiocirculatory component prevails.
Using the equipment Mount the saddle with your trunk pressed firmly against the backrest. Grasp the handles placed on the sides of the saddle. When the pedal is pushed all the way forward, your leg must be almost completely extended. Any other position, such as using one foot only, or not holding onto the side handgrips, or stretching out or bending your legs too much, can result in instability and/or improper movement of the limbs, leading to pain in different parts of the body.
Using the equipment To move the saddle forwards or backwards, lift the lever (A) under the seat, on the right side. There is a graduate scale (B) on the saddle guide rail; on finding the correct setting, you are advised to save it in the training program. B To adjust the backrest lift the lever (C) under the seat, on the left side. A C IFI version To move the saddle forwards or backwards, push downwards the lever (A) under the seat.
