HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER ADAPTER
IMPORTANT: If the rower has been exposed to cold
temperatures, allow it to warm to room temperature
before you plug in the power adapter (A). If you do
not do this, you may damage the console displays
or other electronic components.
Plug the power
adapter (A) into
the receptacle on
the frame of the
rower. Insert the
appropriate plug
adapter into the
power adapter if
necessary. Then,
plug the power
adapter into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
HOW TO ADJUST THE RESISTANCE
To vary the intensity of your exercise, you can adjust
the resistance that you feel when you pull the row bar.
You can adjust the resistance both digitally and manu-
ally. First, adjust the resistance digitally, by touching
the resistance adjustment buttons on the screen (see
step 3 on page 15).
Then, fine-tune
the resistance
manually, by
moving the
resistance handle
(B). To increase
the resistance,
push the resis-
tance handle
toward the front
of the rower; to
decrease the
resistance, pull
the resistance
handle toward the rear of the rower.
HOW TO ADJUST THE FOOT PADS
First, sit on the seat and place your feet in the foot
pads (C).
Next, press the
footrest bracket
(D), slide the foot
pad (C) to the
desired posi-
tion, and then
release the foot-
rest bracket so
that the tab (E)
engages a slot
in the foot pad.
Then, tighten the strap over your foot.
Adjust the other foot pad (C) in the same way. Make
sure that both foot pads are in the same position.
HOW TO ADJUST THE CONSOLE VIEWING ANGLE
To adjust the
console to the
desired viewing
angle, loosen
the handle (F),
raise or lower the
neck (G) to the
desired angle,
and then tighten
the handle; do
not hold or pull on the console.
Note: The handle (F) functions like a ratchet. Turn the
handle in the desired direction, pull it outward, turn it in
the opposite direction, push it inward, and then turn it
in the desired direction again. Repeat this process as
many times as necessary.
