  If your Schwinn Exercise Bike is not turning on, has no display, or only a partial display, first ensure the unit is plugged into a functioning wall outlet. Check that the connection is secure and undamaged, and replace the adapter or connection if needed. Inspect the cable for any damage, replacing it if any wires are crimped or cut. Make sure the cable is connected securely and oriented properly. Look for any visual damage to the console display, and replace the console if it's cracked or damaged. If the console only has a partial display and all connections are fine, replace the console. If these steps don't work, contact Customer Care.

  If the contact heart rate (HR) is not displayed on your Schwinn Exercise Bike, ensure the cable is securely connected to the console. Check that the cables from the handlebars and the cable to the console are secure and undamaged. Make sure your hands are centered on the HR sensors and kept still with equal pressure applied to each side. Using a conductive electrode cream may improve contact. If these steps don't work, the static handlebar should be replaced.

  If the telemetric heart rate is not displayed on your Schwinn Exercise Bike, ensure the strap is 'POLAR®' compatible and uncoded.
