Self-Powered Features
The power source for the EFX is the user. When a person pedals
above 40 strides per minute (spm), the power that is generated
allows the EFX to function properly.
Informational displays appear when the battery is low or when the
user has stopped pedaling during a workout. The display explains
what to do to retain power. If the messages are ignored, the EFX
begins shutdown procedures to maintain the charge of the battery.
Refer to
Informational Displays Prior to Shutdown .
An optional power adapter can be purchased and provides
sustained power to the EFX. If you plan to customize your unit, the
power adapter is highly recommended. To purchase the optional
power adapter, check with your dealer. Refer to
Obtaining Service .
Informational Displays Prior to
Shutdown
The EFX saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode.
Whenever PEDAL FASTER appears on the display, the heart rate,

and program indicators turn off. If the user does not
maintain a stride rate of 40 spm, then a 30-second shutdown
process begins.
PEDAL FASTER appears on the display followed by a set of dots
indicating that the EFX is shutting down. If no pedaling is detected,
the EFX eventually shuts off.
Note: The user can resume exercising if he or she begins pedaling
before the 30-second period elapses.
Note: If the EFX is connected to a CSAFE master device, a slightly
different scenario occurs. When ten seconds remain before the EFX
shuts off, the workout session ends. RESETTING appears in the
lower display while the EFX disconnects from the CSAFE master
device. All key presses are ignored. Pedaling has no effect on the
display.
