POWER

Your programmable recumbent bike is powered by 2 AA batteries, which are replaceable through the
back side of the console.

LEVELING

The recumbent bike should be level for optimum use. Once you have placed the recumbent bike
where you intend to use it, raise or lower the adjustable leveler located under the rear portion of the
side cover. Once you have leveled the recumbent bike, lock the levelers in place by tightening the
wing nuts against the frame.
