heart rate handlebars.
• Constant movement and vibration due to constantly holding the heart rate grips while exercising.

Outside interference sources such as computers, motors and fluorescent lights may cause the heart
rate reading to be erratic. Check your exercise environment for sources of interference such as high power lines,
large motors, etc.

symptoms that are occurring. Some troubleshooting questions that may be asked are:
• How long has this problem been occurring?
• Does this problem occur with every use? With every user?
• If you are hearing a noise, does it come from the front, back or inside? What kind of noise is it (thumping,
grinding, squeaking, chirping etc.)?
• If you are having a resistance problem what is occurring? Is the resistance always too hard or too easy?
Does the resistance respond when pushing the buttons on the console? Does the resistance constantly cycle
through the levels during the workout?
• Has the machine been maintained per the maintenance schedule?
• Does the problem occur when using the handlebars? Without using the handlebars?
Answering these and other questions will give the technicians the ability to send proper replacement parts and
the service necessary to get you and your Horizon bike running again!
