Fitness Quest Edge 482u Owner's Manual

GETTING STARTED

Once your bike is assembled, make sure that your workout space has a solid,
level surface with plenty of space around it. We recommend placing a mat
under your bike to protect your flooring.
Correct Workout Position
When pedaling do not lock out your knees, at the bottom of the pedaling
motion there should be a slight bend in the knee. Keep your head in a neutral
position to minimize neck and upper back strain. Always try to pedal the bike
with a smooth and rhythmic motion.

USING YOUR UPRIGHT BIKE

The bike provides a completely smooth and natural feeling that
minimizes the impact on your hips, knees and ankles while providing
a superior aerobic and muscle toning workout.
IMPORTANT:
• This bike is not recommended for children.
• Always make sure that you feel balanced and secure.
• Always use your bike on a clean, solid and level surface.

USING THE PULSE FUNCTION ON THE HANDLEBARS

The Pulse window on your Monitor works in conjunction with the pulse sensors found on the
handlebars. When you are ready to read your pulse:
1) Place both hands firmly on the pulse sensors. For the most
accurate reading, it is important to use both hands.
2) Look at your pulse window. The small heart will begin to blink.
3) Your estimated heart rate will appear in the window
approximately 6 seconds after you grasp the pulse sensors.
4) Refer to the Target Heart Rate Zone Chart found on page
18 of this manual. For additional information about the
importance of working within certain heart rate ranges,
see pages 16 and 17 – Measuring Your Heart Rate.
5) This estimate is not exact and persons with medical conditions
and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring
should not rely on the estimations provided.
Pulse sensors, located on the handlebars enable the user to read his/her approximate pulse rate.
By grasping the sensors and holding firmly, the display will read your pulse rate in the display window.
Your pulse will continue to read as long as your hands stay on the pulse sensors.
When used properly, the heart rate pulse sensors and display monitor provide a reasonably
accurate estimate of your actual heart rate. This estimate is not exact and persons with
medical conditions and/or a specific need for accurate heart rate monitoring should
not rely on the estimations provided.
