The Life Fitness Lifecycle exercise bike is backed by the engineering excellence and reliability of Life Fitness and is one
of the most rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today.

the equipment out of use until the defective parts are required or replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are subject

Locate the Life Fitness Bike in a cool, dry place.

Long fi ngernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the fi nger to press the selec-
tion buttons on the console.
Clean the housing thoroughly on a regular basis.
