1. Introdución
The CYCPLUS DC1 Mini Pedal Exerciser is an innovative, self-powered fitness device designed for light exercise and rehabilitation. Its compact and ultra-quiet operation makes it ideal for use in various environments, including offices and homes. This manual provides essential information for setup, operation, and maintenance to ensure optimal performance and user safety.
2. Configuración
The CYCPLUS DC1 Mini Pedal Exerciser is designed for immediate use right out of the box, requiring no assembly or charging. Simply unbox the unit and place it in your desired location.
2.1 Desembalaxe e colocación inicial
- Abra coidadosamente a embalaxe do produto.
- Remove the Mini Pedal Exerciser DC1, user manual, anti-slip mat, and buckle strap from the box.
- Place the anti-slip mat on a flat, stable surface where you intend to use the exerciser.
- Position the Mini Pedal Exerciser DC1 on the anti-slip mat.
2.2 Recommended Seating Position
For optimal pedaling efficiency and comfort, ensure your seating position is correct:
- Place the mini exercise bike as close to yourself as possible.
- Press down with the balls of your feet. When the pedal reaches the bottom position, ensure your knee remains aligned with the pedal center for optimal pedaling efficiency. If the bike is too far, you'll rely more on your calves and feet to exert force.
- Adjust your seat height so that: At the lowest pedal position, your lower thighs avoid contact with the seat; At the highest pedal position, the pedals don't hit the underside of your desk.
- With proper seat height and positioning: Your thigh-calf angle should be 60°-70° at the top of the pedal stroke; 80°-85° at the bottom. This range delivers the best force transfer.
- The more downward your pedaling force, the more stable the mini pedal exerciser feels.
Note: If using resistance below Level 4 or ergometer mode under 40W, and efficiency isn't a priority, feel free to adjust your sitting posture for comfort.
3. Instrucións de funcionamento
The CYCPLUS DC1 offers intuitive operation with various modes and real-time data tracking.
3.1 Acendido e visualización
The unit is self-powered. Simply begin pedaling to activate the display and start your workout. The large LED screen will show essential exercise data.
3.2 Resistance Modes
The DC1 features two primary resistance modes:
- Modo manual: Offers 10 levels of adjustable resistance. Rotate the central knob clockwise to increase resistance and counter-clockwise to decrease it. This mode is suitable for warm-ups, rehabilitation, or high-intensity rides.
- Modo ERG: Allows you to set a target power (30W-100W). The exerciser will automatically adjust resistance based on your cadence to maintain the set power output. Ideal for targeted fitness goals.
3.3 Bi-Directional Pedaling
The DC1 supports both forward and reverse pedaling. Forward motion helps boost circulation and burn calories, while reverse pedaling can help ease joint strain and protect knees, ankles, and spine due to its low-impact design.
