only. Do not use your exercise cycle in a

commercial, rental, or institutional setting.

4. Keep your exercise cycle indoors, away from

larly. Replace any worn parts immediately.

8. The pulse sensor is not a medical device.

Various factors, including the user's move-

ment, may affect the accuracy of heart rate

readings. The pulse sensor is intended only

as an exercise aid in determining heart rate

trends in general.

9. Wear appropriate exercise clothes while

exercising; do not wear loose clothes that

could become caught on your exercise

cycle. Always wear athletic shoes for foot

protection while exercising.

10. Keep your back straight while using your

exercise cycle; do not arch your back.

11. When you stop exercising, allow the pedals

to slowly come to a stop.

tached. If a part is not in the hardware kit, check to see if it has been preattached.

tion, and firmly tight-

en the seat knob.
