Place the unit on a solid, flat and non-sliding ground and level the unit with
the adjusting feet, so that it does not move.
For the set-up a safety clearance of 100 cm to all sides is necessary to ensure a
safe access also in emergencies. Safety clearances between the devices are allowed to
overlap; see picture.
The usage may only take place in dry rooms (< 65% humidity, > 0 < 45°C room
temperature).
Pay attention that there is no electromagnetic radiation like mobile phones or
fluorescent tubes because they may affect the measurement of the heart rate.
Don´t locate the units on thick rubber mats. Ensure that the unit gets airing
from all sides.
All units of the cardio line are self-powered. The user will either generate the electricity by pedalling or
– especially while programming – will be supported by the standard, built-in battery pack. The battery
power will last for about two years. See topic “4 Maintenance” for battery change.
Attention:
Please consider the standards for care, maintenance and servicing in chapter 4 of this manual.

Safe training
Before starting to exercise, the fitness of the user has to be ensured by an authorised specialist or a
doctor. Please note topic 3.3 contra indications.
Excessive exercise can be dangerous.
When nausea or dizziness occurs, the work-out has to be stopped right away and a doctor needs to be
allocated.
The training on the units is allowed with unbruised skin only.
During exercising light, tight fitting clothing, which cannot be caught in parts of the unit is
recommended. Always wear sports shoes to ensure a good balance on the pedals.
Please check the unit before exercising for a good level, faulty parts or other manipulations. In case of a
defect or if you are not sure, ask a supervisor.
Before the beginning of the workout it must be assured that no one is close to moving parts, to avoid a
danger for a third person. Above all, hold unattended children off the units.
As a safety function, the stop button is always active and immediately slows down the motion when
pushed.
To exercise in a biomechanical proper position the unit has to get adjusted.
Positioning:
On the cycle
med the horizontal as well as the vertical seat position can get adjusted. To change the vertical seat
position, loosen the bolt on the front of the seat post and manually position the desired height.
Safety:
When adjusting the vertical seat position, make sure that the bolt is back in the starting position before
putting any weight on the seat. The seat position can be noted via the scale on the front side of the seat
post, by that the user can easily adjust the seat positioning when repeating the workout. The position
should be chosen to ensure that in the lowest pedal position the knee still has a 10° bending.
To adjust the horizontal position, the seat knob should be loosened, and then the seat can be moved
forwards or backwards. Afterwards the knob must be retightened. The horizontal position has an effect
on the load, resting on the arms during the workout (slope of the upper body).
Warning:
The system to control the heart rate can be faulty. Excessive workouts can lead to serious
injury or death. When nausea or dizziness occurs, the work-out has to be stopped right away.
Warning:
Solely use unit with the casing.
Warning if using optional power supply:
use exclusively medical power supply units according to IEC
60601-1 which are approved by the manufacturer.
