EFX

®

 SELF-POWERED FEATURES

The power source for the EFX is the user. When a person works out on the EFX and
moves the foot pedals at a stride rate above 40 strides per minute, 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 provides minimal instructions to let you
know what to do to retain power. If the messages are ignored, the EFX will begin
shutdown procedures to maintain the charge of the battery. Refer to page 33,
Informational Displays Prior to Shutdown.

An optional battery recharger can be purchased and provides sustained power to
the EFX. If you plan to customize your unit, the optional battery recharger is highly
recommended. To purchase the optional battery recharger, check with your dealer.
