CHAPTER 2: Setup
3
2.1 GETTING STARTED
Read the Owner’s Manual before setting up the Matrix bike. Place the unit where it will be used before beginning the setup procedure.
2.2 CHOOSING A LOCATION
The site should be well-lit and well-ventilated. Place the bike on a structurally solid flat surface and kept a few feet from the wall or any equipment. If the
site has a heavy plush carpet, to protect the carpeting and machinery, you should place a rigid plastic base under the unit.
Please do not place the bike in an area of high humidity, such as the vicinity of a steam room, indoor pool, or sauna. Exposure to intensive water vapour
or chlorine could adversely affect the electronics, as well as other parts of the machine. To make exercise a desirable daily activity for you, these two bikes
should be in an attractive setting.
2.3 STABILIZING THE BIKE
After positioning the bike in its intended location, check its stability by attempting to shake it side to side. Shaking or wobbling indicates that your bike needs
to be leveled. Determine which leveler is not resting completely on the floor. Loosen the nut with one hand to allow the leveler to rotate. Rotate the left or right
leveler, and repeat the adjustment as necessary until the bike is stable. Lock the adjustment by tightening the nut against the rear foot support.
2.4 ADJUSTING THE PEDAL STRAP
The straps are designed to fit your individual foot size and should be adjusted tight enough to keep your feet from slipping. The pedals include spring-loaded
clips for easy adjustment. To tighten the strap, pull down the open end of the strap. To loosen the strap, push down on the top of the clip and pull the strap up.
Release the clip to lock in place.
