Passive Pedal Assisted Mode
Pedal Assisted Mode is different from the other two Passive Modes. The Pedal Assisted Mode is
designed for users who have some lower extremity capacity, but still have too many strength
and endurance deficits to use one of the Active Modes.
The sensors in the medBike will recognize when the user is no longer able to move the pedals
without help. The Passive Mode mechanism will activate to maintain a constant rpm level.
To start a Pedal Assisted session, select <Pedal Assisted> from the Passive Modes menu.
