WARNING:
BeFit recommend placing the cross-trainer on a level surface and on a mat or carpet offcut to avoid damage to your floor
surface. Make sure that the screws and bolts holding the handlebar sections are all tightened firmly, to avoid any accidental
injury. Children must be kept clear of the equipment when in use. Any children using equipment should be supervised by an
adult at all times. The unit when not in use still represents a danger to unsupervised children, the unit should be moved so it
cannot be accessed by them or the unit should be rendered inoperable.

GENERAL EXERCISE GUIDELINES
Where to begin an exercise program is dependent upon your current fitness level. If you are overweight or have been inactive for
a period of time, must start slowly and progress gradually. Initially, to become accustomed to exercising and using the cross-
trainer, work at a level that you feel comfortable and can maintain for at least 5-10mins. From there, aim to increase duration to
20-30mins. Using your heart rate is the most effective way to monitor exercise and achieve your goals. (see: exercise to your heart
rate range on product brochure)
As a general rule of thumb begin exercising at a level where you can still maintain a normal conversation without constantly being
out of breath. If you want to work harder on the cross-trainer, but don’t feel comfortable going faster, use the tension adjustment
to make the movement more difficult. Try watching television or listening to music when exercising to help the time pass quicker.
Wear comfortable clothing with supportive and cushioned footwear. Drink plenty of fluids before, during and after exercise. Stop
exercising if you feel ill, faint or exhausted and seek medical advice. Give your exercise program time to work. It may take up to
four weeks before you notice any changes to your weight or fitness level, so be patient and persistent.
A balanced diet is also an important part of any exercise program.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Your deluxe x-trainer has been cleaned and checked prior to being hired, but problems can sometimes arise, especially if you have
had the x-trainer for a long period of time. COMPUTER DOESN’T READ CORRECTLY: If the computer is erratic or has stopped
reading information, check that the sensor lead at the back of the computer is plugged in properly. If the computer is completely
blank make sure the power pack is properly plugged into the bike & the wall power point.
If any other problems arise don’t hesitate to contact your hiring agent.
