HOW TO MOVE AND LEVEL THE UPRIGHT BIKE
Before moving the upright bike, make sure that
the power cord is unplugged. Note: If a CATV
cable is connected to the upright bike, it may be nec-
essary to disconnect the cable if the upright bike will
be moved far.
Due to the size and weight of the upright bike,
moving it requires two persons. While one person
lifts the indicated end, firmly hold the handlebar and
tip the upright bike forward until it rolls on the front
wheels. Carefully move the upright bike to the de-
sired location and then lower it back to the level posi-
tion. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of injury, use
extreme caution while moving the upright bike.
Do not attempt to move the upright bike over un-
even surfaces.
If the upright bike rocks slightly during use, turn the
leveling feet under the rear of the frame until the
rocking motion is eliminated.
HOW TO ADJUST THE SEAT
For effective exercise, the seat should be at the proper height. As
you pedal, there should be a slight bend in your knees when the
pedals are in the lowest position. To adjust the height of the seat,
first turn the indicated knob counterclockwise about one turn to
loosen it (if the knob is not loosened enough, it may scratch the seat
post). Next, pull the knob, slide the seat post to the desired height,
and then release the knob. Move the seat post up and down
slightly until the pin on the knob snaps into one of the holes in
the seat post. Then, turn the knob clockwise until it is tight.
HOW TO CONNECT THE POWER CORD
If the upright bike has a Basic console, it can be used with or with-
out the included power cord. Ifthe upright bike has a Workout TV
console, the power cord must be used for the TV to be operated.
To use the power cord, first plug one end of the power cord into the
jack on the front of the upright bike. Plug the other end of the power
cord into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.

HOW TO CONNECT A CATV CABLE

be connected to the upright bike for cable TV stations to be viewed.
Locate the cable jack on the front of the upright bike. Connect the
CATV cable to the cable jack.
Asatellite receiver, VCR, or DVD player can also be connected to
the upright bike. Connect a CATV cable from the coaxial output on
your equipment (usually labeled TV OUT or RF OUT) to the cable
jack. Note: Audio/video equipment without coaxial outputs (some
satellite receivers and DVD players) will require an RF modulator to
operate with the upright bike. RF modulators and external CATV cables are not available from FreeMotion
Fitness, but are available at electronics stores. See the owner's manual included with the equipment you wish to
connect to see whether an RF modulator is needed.
