HOW TO OVE AND LEVEL THE EXERCISE
BIKE
Before moving the exercise bike, make sure that
the power adapter is unplugged. Note: If a CATV
cable is connected to the exercise bike, it may be
necessary to disconnect the cable if the exercise
bike will be moved far.
Due to the size and weight of the exercise bike,
moving it requires two persons. While one person
lifts the indicated end, firmly hold the handlebar and
tip the exercise bike forward until it rolls on the
wheels. Carefully move the exercise bike to the
desired location and then lower it to the level posi-
tion. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, use
extreme caution while moving the exercise bike.
Do not attempt to move the exercise bike over
uneven surfaces.
If the exercise bike rocks slightly during use, turn the
leveling feet under the front and rear of the frame
until the rocking motion is eliminated.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
To adjust the seat, pull the adjustment latch, slide
the seat forward or backward to the desired position,
and then release the adjustment latch.
HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER
To use the power adapter, first plug one end of the
power adapter into the receptacle on the front of the
exercise bike. Plug the other end of the power
adapter into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.

HOW TO CONNECT A CATV CABLE
If your exercise bike has a Workout TV console, a CATV
cable must be connected to the exercise bike for cable TV
stations to be viewed. Locate the cable jack on the front of
the exercise bike. Connect the CATV cable to the cable jack.
A satellite receiver, VCR, or DVD player can also be con-
nected to the exercise bike. Connect a CATV cable from the
coaxial output on your equipment (usually labeled TV OUT
or RF OUT) to the cable jack on the exercise bike.
A VCR or DVD player can also be connected to the exercise
bike with an RCA component audio/video cable. Connect
one end of an RCA component audio/video cable to your
VCR or DVD player. Connect the other end of the RCA com-
ponent video cable to the audio/video input jack on the
exercise bike.
