GENERAL INFORMATION Before beginning any exercise, please consult your physician DO NOT switch the front or seat post from one cycle to another Wipe off the cycle after EVERY use DO NOT lift the cycle by the saddle ALWAYS loosen all handles and release tension after use DO NOT switch console from one bike to another unless recoding The rubber feet should always be adjusted to ensure that the cycle is level Immediately change battery in console when the icon below is shown on the screen Every other y
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E UNPACKING THE PALLET BOTTOM FRAME 1: Begin by opening the top of the box. 1: Arrange the bottom frames parallel on the floor next to the cycle with the correct mounting distance between them, see figure 1. On the front bottom frame, the transport wheels should point forward. 2: Remove all the unmounted parts. 3: Flatten the box on the floor next to the pallet. 5: Lift the cycle off the pallet and place it on the flattened box to spare your floor from getting marks.
HANDLEBAR CONSOLE 1: Place the handlebar on top of the front post. 1: Remove the small plastic strip on the back of the console, see figure 4. Make sure batteries are correctly inserted. 2: Screw an adjustment handle (size 32mm) clockwise into the socket from underneath the post, see figure 3. Fix the handlebar completely to the front post by tightening the adjustment screw on the right side of the handlebar. Please note: The console is set for km and kg as default.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E BOTTLE HOLDER PEDALS 1: Mount the bottle holder at the top of the handlebar, see figure 9. Add one or two rubber rings if the bottle holder is not firmly fixed. 1: Place the right pedal arm with the socket pointing upwards, see figure 11. SADDLE 2: Secure the saddle with the remaining adjustment handle, see figure 10. To fasten the saddle to the adaptor and adjust the tilt of the saddle, use a 14mm wrench on the bolt marked with an A on figure 10.
CLEANING After each workout, wipe the cycle down with tissue paper. If the cycle is covered in sweat or dirt, use water in a spray bottle and if necessary a tissue with some washing-up liquid. Remember handlebar and saddle. NEVER use alcohol or chemicals a cloth with a little Vaseline oil on all parts except the console, handlebar and saddle.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E 2: Remove the handle, the 32mm nut and the brass piston with a 32mm wrench. 3: Remount the seat post. 6: Remove the seat post and remount the brass piston, 32mm nut and the handle. 7: Remount the seat post. Please note: The adjustment has to be very subtle in order for the post still to be able to move up and down. 32 MM NUT HANDLE BRASS PISTON CLEANING THE POSTS Every other week the posts need cleaning to protect them from sweat etc.
ADJUSTMENT HANDLE Every 3 months the handles need cleaning and grease to protect the parts from sweat, dust, dirt and water. 1: Remove the adjustment handle and disassemble the handle completely into a screw, a spring, a handgrip, a main screw and a brass washer, see figure 19. 2: Clean all the parts thoroughly one by one using a steel brush. If the residue is extreme, a sharp object can be used, for example a screwdriver.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E 2: Remove the battery hatch on the control box and replace the three AA batteries, see figure 22. 3: Replace the 3 AAA batteries. 4: Remount the battery hatch and remount the console, see page 7. 2: Loosen all the screws holding the side cover with a 3 and 4mm Allen Key and remove them, see figure 23. 3: Remount the battery hatch and the service hatch. An icon lights up on the console when the control box needs fresh batteries.
REPLACE BRAKE BLOCK The BODY BIKE Synthetic Brake Pad has an expected durability of a minimum of 1500 hours, so eventually the brake pad will be worn. To ensure that the brake pad is correctly mounted, it has been prefitted to the block, and it is only possible to purchase the complete brake block. 1: Remove right side cover, see page 13. 2: Release tension completely on the brake. 3: Remove one of the screws holding the brake unit to the frame and loosen the other by using an 8mm wrench, see figure 24.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E CALIBRATION 1: Remove the right service hatch, see figure 15 on page 10. 2: Release all tension and push 3: Slowly add tension without touching the brake unit. The brake unit will automatically move forward on the shaft until the brake block arc settles on the flywheel curvature. 4: When the brake unit has settled, adjust the set screw to obtain 1mm space between the load cell and the set screw, see figure 28. Tighten counter nut.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E POLY-V BELT If the belt does not catch hold of the flywheel, it is time for it to be tightened. 1: Remove both service hatches see figure 15 on page 10. 4: Use a 10mm wrench to tighten the counter bolts (3). On the right side, the tool should be pulled downwards and on the left side upwards to tighten. 3: Loosen the nuts (2) on the counter bolt on both sides of the cycle using a 10mm wrench, see figure 30.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E PUSH BUTTONS DEFAULT SETTINGS The console will turn ON when: - pressing any button W and X are for navigating between screens and for adjusting values in setting mode. Hold down the arrow to increase/decrease rapidly. In the default settings it is possible to change 3 settings: - Model (Cad/Po) - Code for control box - Units (Kg/lb, km/Mi).
2: Choose the model Po. Use WX to change. Press F to continue directly to set units (go to step 3) or press XE to start reconnecting to the control box. For reconnecting automatically press XE again and pedal a few times to activate the control box. The console will run segments until the control box code is shown. For reconnecting manually long press XE. Use WX to enter code and F to accept. The control box code is written on the black/white label inside the control box battery hatch.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E Age or MHR Enter maximum heart rate if you know it. Otherwise enter age and your maximum heart rate will be calculated from your age (220 - age). Your MHR is used to determine %MHR. Weight Units (kg/lb) can be set in default setting mode, see page 17. Your weight together with your work load is used for calculating calories. Watt level test, relative VO2 max and %MAX WATT If you do not know your relative VO2 max, you can take the watt level test to determine it.
3: If there is no heart rate transmitter paired, the pairing will start automatically and the display will look like figure 34. If a heart rate transmitter is already paired, the display will look like figure 35. Press F to maintain this pairing and continue to next setting, see figure 37, or press W or X to start new pairing. 4: Lean forward to get your heart rate transmitter as close to the PAUSE ACCEPT ADJUST QUIT bottom of the console as possible, see figure 36.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E 1: Gently warm up for 5-10 min. 3: Press F again to start the test. 4: The top figure is your cadence.

You can follow the time in the top right corner of the display, see figure 39. 7: Continue until you are unable to progress further. Press any button to end test.
NAVIGATION, SCAN AND THE FIVE SCREENS The navigation line at the bottom of the screen will show you what screen you are on and if you are in scan mode. In scan mode the console automatically changes between the first two screens. The console is in scan mode when the line underneath the word ‘scan’ is on and the line above ‘scan 1 2’ is on. A line will also appear under the screen number which is currently shown, see figure 41.

Screen 4 [RPM AVG, HR AVG, WATT AVG] Screen 4 holds average values accumulated from all data collected throughout the work out. Screen 5 [MAX RPM, MAX HR, MAX WATT] Screen 5 shows you the maximum values you have reached during the workout. Do not pedal uncontrollably fast or hard in an attempt to break a record.
TROUBLE SHOOTING How to keep the cycles in good condition? It is a good idea to place a board at the exit of the room displaying all cycle numbers. Here people can write possible problems or concerns arisen during the exercise. In this way, the people who are servicing the cycles can get up-dated regularly on how the cycles are performing, and problems can be identified before they turn critical.
BODY BIKE ® I N DO O R C Y C L E No watt - Make sure the rpm has a value, not zero. If no rpm, see section ‘No cadence’, page 24. - Visually inspect that the brake is pushing against the load cell when pedaling. Be careful not to risk any personal injury, especially from rotating parts. - Make sure there is no pressure on the load cell. Press the reset button on the control box and a green light next to the button should turn on. If not, change battery, see page 13.
CONNECT WITH OTHER ANT+ DEVICES DISPLAY MESSAGES The control box and the heart rate transmitter are constantly sending out ANT+ data signals which other ANT+ devices are able to pick up. This provides the opportunity to collect data on ANT+ devices used in other training situations e.g. an outdoor computer, a pulse watch or an iPhone with an ANT+ dongle. There is low battery in the console. Change the battery, see page 12. There is low battery in the control box. Change the battery, see page 13.
