PROPER USAGE
To determine proper seat position, sit on the seat and position the ball of your foot on the center of the pedal. Your knee should bend slightly at the furthest
pedal position. You should be able to pedal without locking your knees or shifting your weight from side to side. Adjust pedal straps to desired tightness.
USING THE HEART RATE FUNCTION
The heart rate function on this product is not a
medical device. While heart rate grips can provide
a relative estimation of your actual heart rate, they
should not be relied on when accurate readings
are necessary. Some people, including those in a
cardiac rehab program, may benefit from using an
alternate heart rate monitoring system like a chest
or wrist strap. Various factors, including movement
of the user, may affect the accuracy of your heart
rate reading. The heart rate reading is intended
only as an exercise aid in determining heart rate
trends in general. Please consult your physician.

PULSE GRIPS
Place the palm of your hands directly on the grip pulse handlebars. Both
hands must grip the bars for your heart rate to register. It takes 5 consecutive
heart beats (15-20 seconds) for your heart rate to register. When gripping the
pulse handlebars, do not grip tightly. Holding the grips tightly may elevate
your blood pressure. Keep a loose, cupping hold. You may experience an
erratic readout if consistently holding the grip pulse handlebars. Make sure
to clean the pulse sensors to ensure proper contact can be maintained.
WARNING!
Heart rate monitoring systems may be inaccurate. Over exercising may result in
serious injury or death. If you feel faint, stop exercising immediately.
