Cybex 530C and 530R Owner’s Manual
! WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, be sure that the unit is unplugged from the electrical
outlet before performing any cleaning or maintenance procedures.
When cleaning your unit spray a mild cleaning agent, such as a water and dish soap solution, on a
clean cloth first and then wipe the unit with the damp cloth.
NOTE: Do not spray cleaning solution directly on the unit. Direct spraying could cause damage to the
electronics and may void the warranty.
After Each Use - Wipe up any liquid spills immediately. After each workout, use a cloth to wipe up any
remaining perspiration from the handrails and painted surfaces.
Be careful not to spill or get excessive moisture on the console and display overlays, as this might
create an electrical hazard or cause failure of the electronics.
As Needed - Vacuum any dust or dirt that might accumulate under or around the unit. Every three
months vacuum the fan’s vent to prevent buildup of dust. See Figure 1.

! WARNING: Disconnect the optional power adapter before beginning this procedure. Keep wet
items away from inside parts of the unit. Do not touch components on the lower
board. A charge can remain even if the unit is unplugged.
To clean inside the unit, remove the Phillips head screws securing the covers in place. Use a vacuum
attachment or hand vacuum to clean the exposed areas and remove dirt and debris off of internal
components.
Use a dry cloth to wipe all exposed areas. Replace the covers and secure them with the screws when
finished.
Lift the rear of the unit and roll it back from its present position to vacuum the floor area underneath
the unit. When finished, return the unit to its normal position.
Contact Heart Rate Grips - Contaminants, such as hand lotions, oils or body powder, may come off
on the contact heart rate grips. These can reduce sensitivity and interfere with the heart rate signal. It is
recommended that the user have clean hands when using the contact heart rate. Clean the grips using
a cloth dampened with a cleaning solution containing alcohol. The grips are the only part of the unit
you should use a cleaning solution containing alcohol.
