1.2 Serial Number Location and Specifications 1.2.1 The serial number has 10 characters. The location of the serial number is shown below.
1.3 Equipment Placement and Spacing 1.3.1 Location Before assembling the unit, verify the chosen site meets the following criteria:
Area is well lit and well ventilated. Surface is structurally sound and properly leveled. Place in a location away from direct sunlight. The intense UV light can cause discoloration on the
plastics. Locate your elliptical in an area with cool temperatures and low humidity.
3

Do not install, use, or store the elliptical in an area of high humidity, such as in the vicinity of a steam room, sauna, indoor pool, garage, covered patio, near water or outdoors. Exposure to extensive water vapor, chlorine and/or bromine could adversely affect the electronics as well as other parts of the unit.

Adjacent units may share the free area. The below minimum spacing recommendations are based on a combination of the ASTM (U.S.) voluntary standards and EN (European) regulations as of October 1, 2012, for access, passage around, and emergency dismount: ASTM standards are voluntary and may not reflect current industry standards. The actual area for access, passage around, and emergency dismount is the responsibility of the facility. The facility should consider the total space requirements for training on each unit, voluntary and industry standards, and any local, state, and federal regulations. Standards and regulations are subject to change at any time.

1.4 Transportation 1.4.1 To move the equipment, carefully lift the rear end by pushing down on the 2 front transport wheels (Figure

completed, press “ENTER” to confirm and the display will show “PRESS START TO BEGIN WORKOUT” or press “STOP” to go back to the last setting. 7.4.2.7 Press the “Start” key and all the values begin to accumulate. This is the start of Execution Mode. 7.4.2.8 DOT MATRIX displays messages during program execution, the same as Quick Start. 7.4.2.9 In HRC mode, if the heartbeat cannot be detected for 20 seconds during the exercise, the DOT MATRIX will display “No Heartbeat Warning Icon”.

7.4.3 MESSAGE WINDOW displays a message during Program execution, except that Time is Count Down, the

others are the same as Quick Start.

7.4.3.1 In the exercise state, the time for the program to make adjustment changes for the first time is fixed at 30

seconds of the program execution.

7.4.3.2 Target heartbeat value: (rounded to integer)

7.4.3.2.1 Select HRC 65: target heartbeat value=(220-Age)*0.65

7.4.3.2.2 Select HRC 75: target heartbeat value=(220-Age)*0.75

7.4.3.2.3 Select HRC 85: target heartbeat value=(220-Age)*0.85

7.4.3.2.4

In the exercise state, the execution of the program is compared with the target heartbeat value. If “Actual heartbeat value <Target heartbeat value of -10”, the LEVEL will automatically increase by 1 segment every 30 seconds during exercise, until the maximum value of LEVEL. No change when the

heartbeat is 0.

7.4.3.2.5

In the exercise state, the execution of the program is compared with the target heartbeat value. If “Actual heartbeat value Target heartbeat value of +10”, the LEVEL will automatically decrease by 1 stage every 30 seconds during exercise, until the LEVEL minimum value, does not change when the

heartbeat is 0.

7.4.3.2.6 When the Time counting mode is in Count Down and counting has been terminated, the program will enter the “Stop Mode.”

8.0 Error Code and Troubleshooting

Item Error Message
1. COMMUNICATION FAIL 2. DC BUS ERROR 3. DCV VOLT OVERLOAD
4. CMP CURR OVERCURR 5. SHORT CIRCUIT 6. CURRENT STATE NG 7. LOW BATTERY

Descriptions
CAUSE: Communication timeout. This error message displays if the
console and generator lose communication for over 90 seconds. SOLUTION: 1. Check that the console and generator are connected properly. 2. If the connection is correct, please replace the console or
generator. CAUSE: The generator cannot transform AC power to DC power. SOLUTION: 1. Stop peddling and wait for the power to shut down. 2. Pedal to power up the console. If the error message displays
again, replace the generator. CAUSE: The voltage of DC generator is too high (over 300V for 3 seconds). User may be peddling too fast (normal peddling speed should be under 180 RPM). SOLUTION: 1. Stop peddling and wait for the power to shut down. 2. Pedal to power up the console. If the error message displays
again, replace the generator. CAUSE: The output current of generator is over 3.5amps for 1 second. SOLUTION: 1. Stop peddling and wait for the power to shut down. 2. Pedal to power up the console. If the error message displays
again, replace the generator. CAUSE: The IGBT of generator is short circuited. SOLUTION: 1. Stop peddling and wait for the power to shut down. 2. Pedal to power up the console. If the error message displays
again, replace the generator. CAUSE: The output circuit of the generator is abnormal, or the coil did not connect to the controller. SOLUTION: 1. Check the coil connection. 2. If coil connection is correct, replace the generator. CAUSE: The battery’s voltage is too low. SOLUTION: If the error message displays again, please replace the battery.
