only in the way described in this
instruction book.
2. Ensure that the voltage of the electrical 8.
supply is the same as that indicated
on the rating plate of the AC
Adapter.
3. It is the responsibility of the owner to 9.
ensure that all users are adequately
informed of all precautions.
.
.
.
Use the programmable magnetic bike
indoors on a level surface. Keep the
programmable magnetic bike away
from excessive moisture and dust.
The safety level of the programmable
magnetic bike can be maintained only
if it is examined regularly for damage
and wear. Replace defective
components immediately. If there are
any defective components, do not use
the programmable magnetic bike.
Keep unsupervised children away
from the programmable magnetic bike
at all times.
