USE  
CORRECT BODY POSITION  
PEDALS  
FIG.3  
The Recumbent Cycle F 530 is designed to  
comfortably distribute your weight evenly over  
your buttocks and lumbar region of your lower  
back. Your legs are also positioned closer to the  
level of your heart, allowing a less strenuous and  
more efficient cardiovascular workout. To ensure  
proper positioning please follow the recommended  
guidelines:  
The pedals are distinguished by the markings R  
and L on their shafts (R = right, L = left). Fasten  
the right pedal to the right pedal crank turning  
clockwise and the left pedal to the left pedal crank  
turning counterclockwise. Fasten the pedal straps.  
Choose the strap tightness, set the appropriate  
strap hole on the retainer from below and pull  
forcibly upward. The pedal straps are adjustable.  
Especially when the device is new, the fastening of  
the strap may seem relatively tight.  
ADJUSTING THE SEAT TO  
PEDAL DISTANCE  
FEET  
FIG.4  
The lenght of the seat rail should be adjusted  
so that your knee remains slightly bent (not  
completely straight) when your leg is extended to  
the furthest pedaling point forward. To adjust the  
distance between the seat and the pedals: lift the  
lever located below the seat to release the lock. To  
extend the distance, push forward with your feet  
in the pedals. Backpedal to find the comfortable  
distance. To reduce the distance, pull the front  
frame assembly using the scalloped handle next  
to the left side crank. Push the lever back to  
horizontal position to lock the attachment.  
Insert a foot coupler into each side of rear frame  
cross tube. Secure each with a 4x15 screw. Push feet  
onto couplers.  
MAIN BEAM TUBE  
FIG. 5  
Insure that the seat adjustment lever is in the  
release (upward) position. Loosen the plastic  
bushing at the back end of the main beam tube and  
pull the pulse cable through the main beam tube  
using the pulling string. Slide the main beam tube  
through the seat frame assembly tube.  
Place the plastic bushing around the pulse  
cable and push the bushing back to its place in the  
hole at the back of the main beam tube.

OWNER'S MANUAL • F530  
ADJUSTING PEDALLING RESISTANCE  
METER  
Adjust resistance by turning the knob below the  
meter. To increase resistance, turn clockwise (+),  
to decrease resistance turn counterclockwise (-).  
The user friendly meter of the F 530 recumbent  
cycles measures time, speed, pulse, estimated  
energy consumption, and distance. The meter  
switches on automatically when you first press a  
key or start pedalling, and switches off when you  
have not pedalled or pressed any key for about 4  
min.  
NOTE! Protect the meter from direct sunlight,  
as it may damage the liquid crystal display. Do  
not expose the meter to water or severe impacts, as  
these may also damage the meter.  
EXERCISING  
Working out using a recumbent cycle is excellent  
aerobic exercise, the principle being that the  
exercise should be suitably light, but of long  
duration. Aerobic exercise is based on improving  
the body’s maximum oxygen uptake, which in turn  
improves endurance and fitness. The ability of the  
body to burn fat as a fuel is directly dependent  
on its oxygen-uptake capacity. Exercise of long  
duration within a pulse range that is about 50-60  
% of the maximum pulse burns effectively fat, i.e  
helps you lose weight. Exercise in a range that is  
about 70-80 % of the maximum develops the heart  
and respiratory system, and overall endurance, i.e.  
it improves your condition. If you don’t know your  
own maximum pulse rate you can use the following  
formulae as a guideline:  
METER DISPLAYS AND FUNCTIONS  
TIME  
Displays the elapsed time of the exercise session  
(00:00-99:59).  
SPEED  
Displays the current speed in MPH (GB/USA-  
version) or in km/h (0-99).  
PULSE  
Displays the pulse value during exercise (40-220  
bpm). NOTE! Pulse is measured by sensors in  
the handle bars. Pulse is measured when the user  
of F530 is touching both sensors simultaneously.  
Reliable pulse measurement requires that the skin  
is constantly touching the sensors and that the skin  
is slightly moist.  
WOMEN: 226 - AGE, MEN: 220 – AGE  
However, it is advisable to make sure by consulting  
your doctor. For example, to lose weight, a  
50-year-old man should exercise at a resistance and  
pedalling speed that raise his pulse to about 85-105  
beats/min.  
CALORIES  
Displays an estimate of kilocalories consumed  
(0-999.9). This is an approximate calculation  
determined by the number of crank rotations.  
DISTANCE  
Displays the distance traveled in miles (GB/USA-  
version) or in kilometers (0-999.9).  
It is important to monitor your heart rate  
throughout the exercise session. Many people begin  
an exercise program too zealously and discontinue  
because it becomes too difficult. Aerobic exercise  
should above all be pleasant. You should perspire,  
but you should not get out of breath during the  
workout. You must, for example, be able to speak  
and not just pant while pedalling. You should  
exercise at least three times a week, 30 minutes at  
a time, to reach a basic fitness level. Maintaining  
this level requires a few exercise sessions each week.  
Once the basic condition has been reached, it is  
easily improved, simply by increasing the number  
of exercise sessions. Exercise is always rewarding for  
weight loss, because it is the only way of increasing  
the energy spent by the body. This is why it is  
always worthwhile to combine regular exercise with  
a healthy diet. A dieter should exercise daily -  
at first 30 minutes or less at a time, gradually  
increasing the daily workout time to one hour.  
You should start slowly at a low pedalling speed  
and low resistance, because for an overweight  
person strenuous exercise may subject the heart  
and circulatory system to excessive strain. As fitness  
improves, resistance and pedalling speed can be  
increased gradually.  
METER KEYS  
RESET  
Press this key to set all data to zero.  
MODE / SCAN  
The automatic SCAN-function is always activated  
in the TIME display: each function is displayed  
consecutively. Deactivate SCAN by pressing the  
MODE / SCAN key.  
MAINTENANCE  
The Recumbent Cycle F 530 requires very little  
maintenance. We recommend, however, that you  
make sure all the fastening screws are tight after  
approximately one week of use. Turn the cycle on  
its side and tighten the screws, if necessary. From  
time to time check that the screws and nuts are  
tight. Clean the cycle with a damp cloth. Do not  
use solvents.  
Please contact your dealer immediately if you  
notice any defects or malfunctions while using your  
equipment. Please state the nature of the problem,  
5
 
conditions of use, purchase date and serial number  
of your equipment. In spite of continuous quality  
control, individual defects and malfunctions may  
occur due to individual components. It is in most  
cases unnecessary to take the whole cycle for repair,  
as it is usually sufficient to replace the defective  
part.
