If the battery voltage is low or needs recharging, the words WARNING - LOW
BATTERY appear after the PRECOR banner. The EFX continues to function even
with a low battery, but user and course information is lost once the user stops
pedaling. Note that the Pause feature does not work.
When the battery voltage is low, changes to the ramp’s incline are ignored. When a
user attempts to change the ramp incline, NO RAMP - LOW BATTERY appears on
the display. The course profile and calories calculations are not affected by the low
battery and continue to show the programmed changes as if the changes to the
ramp incline actually occurred.
Note: A sustained workout at the current ramp incline will help recharge the battery.
Or, plug in the optional battery recharger. Refer to the
Maintenance section.
LOWER DISPLAY
Prompts appear in this display prior to a workout. A user addresses each prompt
using the numeric or keypad keys. Once the user begins pedaling and maintains
a stride rate above 40 strides per minute, lights appear in the columns below the
window indicating which information is being displayed. A user can highlight a
particular feature by pressing the appropriate Change key.
The following describes the information that can appear in the lower display.
TIME: During a workout, a time (0:00) display appears. Time appears in minutes
and seconds. However, should a user exceed 60 minutes (during a single workout),
the Time display converts to hours and minutes. The Time display shows how long
a user has been working out. Even when a user enters the cool-down period, the
Time display provides the cumulative duration of the workout.
STRIDES: Shows the total number of strides completed. A stride is an exagger-
ated walking movement. On the EFX, if a user starts in a position with one foot
forward and one foot back, a stride is completed when he or she moves the rear
foot all the way forward while the forward foot moves to the rear.
STRIDES PER MINUTE: Displays the current pedaling speed. The number will
always be even since two strides create one complete revolution of the flywheel.
Important: The self-powered EFX requires that a user maintain a stride rate above
40 strides per minute to function properly. PEDAL FASTER appears on the display
as a warning that the EFX is entering shutdown mode.
CALORIES: Provides the cumulative number of calories being burned.
REMAINING TIME: Indicates the amount of time, in minutes and seconds (mm:ss),
that remain in the course. When a user enters a cool down period, the Remaining
Time resets to five minutes, and begins counting down from there.
Note: If the club has set the Workout Time Limit as NO LIMIT and the user
inputs 0 using the numeric keys at the Enter Time prompt, then the Remaining
Time field does not appear. See
Club Information on page 19.
