TRAPS
The bike pedal straps keep the user’s shoes on the pedals during a workout. The straps should fit comfortably, but
they also should be tight enough to prevent shoes from slipping at any point in the pedaling rotation. Before working
out, a user should test and adjust the tightness of the straps.
The safety straps on the foot pedals of the Lifecycle Exercise Bike can be adjusted to fit a variety of shoe sizes.
The straps are held in place by two knobs that extend from either side of each pedal. The “inner” knob extends
sideways, that is, toward the bike. The “outer” knob extends downward. The ends of each strap are perforated with
slots that fit tightly over the knobs. The “inner” end of each strap is perforated with two slots, and the “outer”
segment of the strap is perforated with a row of slots.
To tighten or loosen a strap, grasp either end and pull it back, away from the knob, until the strap slides off. Select
a new slot, and pull that slot down over the knob, until the top of the knob pops through the slot. A click indicates
that the strap is locked into place.

For the C9i: When a user begins pedaling on the Lifecycle Exercise Bike, the unit’s Auto-Start feature powers up
the console, causing the console display to light up and the MESSAGE CENTER to flash a prompt to select a
workout or press QUICK START.
For the C7i or the C9i: Start pedaling, and press the START key. The console display lights up, and the
MESSAGE CENTER flashes a prompt to select a workout or press QUICK START.
For both models, if the user does not make a selection in 15 seconds, the console automatically starts a MANUAL
workout. For information on setting up a workout, see Section 4.2, titled Using the Workouts. If the user stops
pedaling, the console shuts down.
