6.1 PREVENTATIVE
MAINTENANCE TIPS
The Lifecycle exercise bike is backed by the engineering excellence of Life Fitness and is one of
the most rugged and trouble-free pieces of exercise equipment on the market today. Commercial
Life Fitness products have proven to be durable in health clubs, colleges, and military facilities
the world over. This same technology, engineering expertise, and reliability have gone into the
Lifecycle exercise bike.
NOTE: The safety of the equipment can be maintained only if the equipment is examined regu-
larly for damage or wear. Keep the equipment out of use until defective parts are repaired or
replaced. Pay special attention to parts that are subject to wear as outlined in the Preventive
Maintenance Schedule. See Section 6.2.
REMARQUE : pour conserver un matériel sûr, il convient de l'inspecter régulièrement afin de
déceler tout signe d'usure ou d'endommagement. N'utilisez pas l'appareil tant que les pièces
défectueuses n'ont pas été réparées ou remplacées. Portez une attention toute particulière aux
pièces qui s'usent, comme indiqué ci-dessous.
The following preventive maintenance tips will keep the Lifecycle exercise bike operating at peak
performance:
• Locate the bike in a cool, dry place.
• Keep the pedal straps fastened securely when using the bike.
• Keep the display console free of fingerprints and salt build-up caused by sweat.
• Use a 100% cotton cloth, lightly moistened with water and mild liquid detergent, to
clean the bike. Other fabrics, including paper towels, may scratch the surface.
Do not use ammonia or acid-based cleaners.
• Long fingernails may damage or scratch the surface of the console; use the pad of the
finger to press the selection buttons on the console.
• Clean the housing thoroughly on a regular basis.
NOTE: A non-abrasive cleaner and soft cotton cloth are strongly recommended for cleaning the
exterior of the unit. At no time should cleaner be applied directly to any part of the equipment;
apply the non-abrasive cleaner on a soft cloth, and then wipe the unit.
