Your Horizon Fitness recumbent bike is designed to be reliable and maintenance free. However, if
you do experience problems with your recumbent bike, please reference the troubleshooting guide
listed below.
PROBLEM: There is no display on the console.
SOLUTION: Remove the console and verify that the console cable is attached properly, making
sure that the cable is securely inserted into the console.
PROBLEM: The recumbent bike makes a squeaking or chirping noise.
SOLUTION: Loosen all bolts attached during the assembly process, grease the threads and tight-
en again.
PROBLEM: The resistance levels seem to be incorrect, seeming too hard or too easy.
SOLUTION: Reset the console and allow the resistance to reset to the default position. Restart the
console and retry the resistance levels. (R30 only)
PROBLEM: There is no heart rate reading
SOLUTION: If you are using the chest strap, there may be a poor connection between the elec-
trodes and the skin. Remoisten the electrodes with water. (R30 only)
SOLUTION: The chest strap may not be positioned properly. Reposition the chest strap. It may be
necessary to experiment with the fit and position of the chest strap. (R30 only)
SOLUTION: Verify that the distance between the chest strap and the console is not beyond the rec-
ommended range of 36 inches. (R30 only)
SOLUTION: The battery in the chest strap may be dead. Take the chest strap to a jewelry store or
return to Horizon Fitness for a battery replacement. (R30 only)
