CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 LEGAL DISCLAIMER 2.2 BEFORE GETTING STARTED
The Matrix R1x Bike is intended for commercial use. To ensure your safety
and protect the equipment, read all instructions before operating the
bike.
CHOOSING A SITE
The site should be well lit and well ventilated. Locate the Matrix R1x Bike
on a structurally solid and flat surface. The bike should have a clearance
of 20" on one side and behind the unit, and 12" on the other side from
the wall or other equipment. This zone is to allow easy access to the bike
and gives the user an easy exit path from the machine. If the site has a
heavy plush carpet, to protect the carpeting and machinery, you should
place a rigid plastic base under the unit.
Please do not place the Matrix R1x Bike in an area of high humidity,
such as the vicinity of a steam room, indoor pool, or sauna. Exposure to
intensive water vapor or chlorine could adversely affect the electronics,
as well as other parts of the machine.

3
CAUTION! If you experience chest pains, nausea, dizziness, or short-
ness of breath, stop exercising immediately and consult your physician
before continuing.
CAUTION! Any changes of modifications to this equipment could void
the product warranty.
CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.3 READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
To ensure your safety and protect the equipment, read all instructions
before operating the MATRIX R1x Bike.
To ensure proper use and safety on the Matrix R1x Bike, make sure that
all users read this manual. Remind the users that before undertaking
any fitness program, they should obtain complete physical examinations
from their physicians. If, at any time while exercising, the user
experiences dizziness, pain, or shortness of breath, nausea or feels faint,
he or she must stop immediately.
* This bike is only to be used for its intended purpose described in this manual.
Do not use attachments that have not been recommended by Matrix.
* Never drop or insert objects into any opening. Keep hands away from mov-
ing parts. If the item cannot be reached, contact a Matrix authorized dealer for
assistance.
* Never operate the unit if it is damaged, not working properly, when it has
been dropped, or has been dropped in water.
* Keep hands and feet clear at all times from moving parts to avoid injury.
* Do not use this product outdoors, near swimming pools or in areas of high
humidity.
* Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or when oxy-
gen is being administered.
* Do not use this product in bare feet. Do not wear shoes with heels, leather
soles, cleats, or spikes while exercising.
* Do not remove the side covers. Service should only be done by an authorized
service technician.
* Close supervision is necessary when used near children, invalids, or disabled
people.
* When the bike is in use, young children and pets should be kept at least 3
meters / 10 feet away.
* Assemble and operate the Matrix R1x Bike on a solid, level surface.
* Never face backward while using the Matrix R1x Bike.
* Use the stationary handlebars when mounting or dismounting the bike.
* Do not wear clothing that might catch on any moving parts of this bike.

CHAPTER 2: IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
2.4 ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
SELF POWERED FEATURES:
On the Matrix R1x Bike, the users pedaling generates the power to initialize and display information on the console. A minimum of 30 RPMs are required
to start and maintain enough power to keep the console functional. If the minimum RPM is not maintained, the console will begin to shut down. The
bike is able to extend the time to show a display on the console if the bike is equipped with an optional battery (Figure A). The bike saves its battery
charge by moving into a shutdown mode whenever PEDAL FASTER appears on the display.
SYMPTOMS OF A LOW BATTERY
If the bike has not been used for an extended period of time, the battery may require recharging. Symptoms of a low battery include:
1) A "LOW BATTERY" message will appear on the display.
2) Backlighting on the LCD display will be disabled.
3) No one has used the bike for an extended period of time.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adaptor to charge the unit. The charger should be connected to the bike for a minimum of eight
hours to ensure a thorough charge. If "LOW BATTERY" still appears on the display after full charging, the battery could be expired and should be replaced.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
The unit's battery is built to last for a long time. However, if you feel the battery may need replacing, it is located behind a plate on the back side of the
console (Figure B).
CAUTION: The battery stored inside the console contains hazardous materials to the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is required by law.

CHAPTER 3: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
3.1 RECOMMENDED CLEANING TIPS 3.2 CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS
DO NOT use any equipment that is damaged or has worn or broken
parts. Use only replacement parts supplied by Matrix Fitness Systems.
MAINTAIN LABELS AND NAMEPLATES. Do not remove labels for any
reason. They contain important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact Matrix Fitness Systems for a replacement at 866-693-4863 or
www.matrixfitness.com.
MAINTAIN ALL EQUIPMENT. Preventative maintenance is the key to
smoothly operating equipment. Equipment needs to be inspected
at regular intervals. Defective components must be kept out of use
until they are repaired. Ensure that any person(s) making adjustments
or performing maintenance or repair of any kind is qualified to do
so. Matrix Fitness Systems will provide service and maintenance
training at our corporate facility upon request or in the field if proper
arrangements are made.

clean all exposed surfaces. DO NOT use ammonia, chlorine, or any acid
based cleaners.
b. Keep the console display free of fingerprints and salt build up
caused by sweat.
c. Frequently vacuum the floor beneath the unit to prevent the
accumulation of dust and dirt which can affect the smooth operation of
the unit.

4.2 WORKOUT OVERVIEW  CONTINUED
WORKOUT TIPS
1. Matrix Fitness strongly recommends seeing your physician for a
complete physical examination before beginning any fitness program.
Know your physician's recommended heart rate target zone. If at any
time while exercising, you experience faintness, dizziness, pain, or
shortness of breath, you must stop immediately.
2. It is highly recommended that you always incorporate the warm up
and cool down period into your workout. Warm up brings the heart
rate into the lower end of the target zone and increases respiration and
blood flow to working muscles. Cool down takes time for a user's heart
rate to return to resting state after vigorous exercise and reduces the
amount of lactic acid in muscle tissue.
PAUSE OPTION
On the Matrix R1x Bike, the users pedaling generates the power to
initialize and display information on the console. A minimum of 30
RPMs are required to start and maintain enough power to keep the
console functional. If the minimum RPM is not maintained, the console
will begin to shut down. The bike is able to extend the time to show a
display on the console if the bike is equipped with an optional battery.
The bike saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode
whenever PEDAL FASTER appears on the display.
SYMPTOMS OF A LOW BATTERY
If the bike has not been used for an extended period of time, the battery
may require recharging. Symptoms of a low battery include:
1) A "LOW BATTERY" message will appear on the display.
2) Backlighting on the LCD display will be disabled.
3) No one has used the bike for an extended period of time.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adaptor to
charge the unit. The charger should be connected to the bike for a
minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. If "LOW BATTERY"
still appears on the display after full charging, the battery could be
expired and should be replaced.
