Danger
• Explosion Hazard •
The device is not designed for use in areas where an explosion
hazard may occur.
Explosion hazards may result from the use of ammable anes-
thetics, skin cleansing agents or disinfectants.
Warning
• Patient Hazard, Equipment Damage •
Do not expose the optibike to direct sunlight to prevent system
components from reaching inadmissible high temperatures.
Do NOT use the optibike outdoors (medical device). Furthermore
the device has no additional protection against the ingress of
humidity. Humidity inside the device may cause equipment
malfunctions and increases the risk of an electric shock.
Additionally, the device should not be operated in the vicinity
of electric power plants, because they may impair equipment
functions.
The optibike ergometer may only be used in combination with
accessories approved by ergoline GmbH.
• Risk to Persons •
Before using the ergometer, the operator must ascertain that it is

used to connect the device to other pieces of equipment.
• Equipment Malfunction •
Cellular telephones may not be used in the immediate vicinity
of the ergometer, because they might interfere with the proper
functioning of the ergometer.
Electromagnetic interference most probably exists when the
watt reading is unstable. If the displayed value changes fre-
quently even though the speed is above 30 RPM, this may be due
to electromagnetic interference.
Warning
• Shock Hazard •
When the ergometer is connected to other equipment or if a
medical system is created, it must be ensured that the added
leakage currents do not present a hazard.
In case of questions, please contact your ERGOLINE dealer or the

item in the displayed list.
During a training session (manual
mode or constant load), the current
load can be changed by 5 watts.
The START key is used to select the
item highlighted with the arrow keys.
The key is also used to start the train-
ing session.
The STOP key is used to terminate a
training session.
The current function of these keys is
indicated on the display as it depends
on the operating mode.
After switching on the optibike, this
key is used to access the "Settings".
During a training session, this key is
used to switch between the displayed

- 14 -
TRAINING MODES
INTRODUCTION
The optibike ergometer supports a number of dierent
training types.
Up to 10 dierent protocols can be congured and saved
in the ergometer.
For a training session, you can call up one of the protocols
and start exercising.
Each protocol begins with a warmup phase. You can con-
gure the duration of the warmup phase and the load (e.g.,
3 minutes at 25 watts).
The next step is the exercise phase (see below) which is
followed by the "recovery phase". For both phases, the
duration and the load can be congured.
A distinction is made between the dierent training modes
for the actual exercise phase:
Pulse-controlled training (mode: Pulse)
For this training mode, it is necessary to wear the supplied
chest strap.
The strap measures the pulse rate and sends it to the
optibike.
At the ergometer, you set your training pulse (please ask
your doctor, coach, or therapist) and the duration of the
exercise phase.
During the training session, the optibike permanently
checks your current pulse rate and compares it with the
set training pulse. If your pulse rate is below this value, the
load will be increased; if your pulse is too high, the ergom-
eter will automatically reduce the load.
Training at a constant load (mode: Constant)
In this mode, you will exercise for a dened period of time
and with a xed load.
The optibike maintains the watt reading at the set value -
your pulse rate will be displayed, but the load will NOT be
adapted to this value.
Caution
Health Hazard
Before starting to exercise with the ergometer, please consult
with your doctor whether you are t for an ergometer training
with optibike.
Discuss the training protocol best suitable for you with your
doctor and ask for advice concerning your training pulse and
maximum load (watts).
At the end of this manual, you will nd form sheets where you
can note down the recommended training settings.
Take this sheet with you, when you go to your doctor’s oce.
If you feel dizzy or sick during the training, stop exercising
immediately!
Inappropriate or excessive training may be dangerous for your
health!
Note
Health Hazard
• No training protocols are congured in a new optibike.
Select the MANUAL mode when testing the ergometer for
the rst time.
• The training protocols can be congured under “Settings”
(see description on the following pages).

- 15 -
ergoline optibike
Interval training (mode: Interval)
For this mode, you can congure two intervals with dier-
ent durations and loads. The ergometer will then alternate
between these two settings (e.g., 1 minute at 80watts,
followed by 2 minutes at 30 watts, alternating for a total
of 20 minutes).
CONFIGURING ATRAINING PROTOCOL
The optibike ergometer can store a maximum of 10 dier-
ent training protocols.
Upon delivery of a new optibike ergometer, no training
protocols are congured.
Discuss your personal training data with your doctor,
coach, or physiotherapist.
At the end of this manual, you will nd form sheets where
you can enter the training settings recommended for your
sessions.
Follow these steps to congure your training protocol:
Switch on the ergometer.
The ON/OFF switch is situated on the rear of the unit.

PREPARING ATRAINING SESSION
ADJUSTING THE SADDLE HEIGHT
The saddle height of the optibike ergometer is set manually
with a clamping lever, which permits continuous adjust-
ment.
With the pedal in the bottom position, the angle between
the axis formed by the upper body and the thigh should be
approximately 10°.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBAR
Set the handlebar to a position where it is comfortable to
reach when you sit upright.
To do so, open clamping lever and set the handlebar to a
suitable angle.
Then tighten the clamping lever.
10°
CORRECT SITTING POSITION
Note
• Tighten the clamping levers only as much as necessary,
NOT with maximum force.
• Lubricate the clamping lever threads occasionally using a
suitable lubricant (e.g. OKS470).

- 20 -
APPLYING THE CHEST STRAP
For optimal cardiovascular training, the heart rate must be
monitored during the session.
For this reason, the optibike ergometer is supplied with a
digital chest strap, which measures your pulse rate and
continually sends it to the optibike.
• Attach the elastic strap to one end of the transmitter.
• Adjust the length of the strap so that it ts snugly
around your chest, but is not too tight. Attach the
strap to your chest (for men: directly below the pec-
torals, for women: below the breasts) and close the
strap.
• Having applied the strap, lift the transmitter a little o
your skin and moisten the two contact areas (ribbed)
on the back of the transmitter and the skin below.
The moistened electrodes should have full contact
with the skin (with the transmitter logo on the out-
side).
CORRECT APPLICATION OF THE CHEST STRAP
ATTACHING THE ELASTIC STRAP TO THE TRANSMITTER
Note
If the chest strap is properly applied but the heart rate is not
shown on the ergometer, check the battery and make sure the
serial number of the strap has been correctly entered (see the
“Maintenance” chapter in this manual).
Note
The optibike ergometer is only compatible with the supplied
ergoline digital radio chest belt!
Other commercially available chest belts for heart rate
monitoring (e.g., POLAR®) are NOT supported.
