support tube and the meter wire run in a straight line inside
the handlebar support tube. Connect the meter wire coming
out of the handlebar support tube and the wire attached to
the frame. Fix the handlebar support tube in place with the
rectangular metal washer, smaller washer and hex screw at
the bottom of the tube, making sure that the resistance
adjustment wire and the meter wire pass through the notch
in the metal washer without obstruction (Fig. 3). Tuck the
rest of the wire into the handlebar support tube.
Always make sure that the locking knob is fastened
properly before starting to exercise. The scale on the
seat tube helps you to find the seat height you have found
suits you best.
ADJUSTING THE HANDLEBARS
Loosen the grey adjustment knob at the front of the
handlebar support tube and adjust the handlebar distance
so that you can pedal with the arms almost straight in a
comfortable position. Retighten the adjustment knob.
CONNECTING THE RESISTANCE
ADJUSTMENT WIRE
ADJUSTING PEDALLING RESISTANCE
To increase or decrease resistance, turn the adjustment
knob at the top of the handlebar support tube clockwise to
increase resistance and anticlockwise to decrease
resistance. The scale above the knob (1-10) helps you find
and reset a suitable resistance.
Place the control mechanism of the resistance adjustment
wire in the lug under the frame so that the lug is between the
two adjustment nuts.Thread the loop at the end of the wire
over the screw in the lever of the magnetic caliper. N.B. Not
under the nut (Fig. 4). Remove the piece of wood next to
the lever. Adjust resistance to maximum by turning the
resistance adjustment knob at the top of the handlebar
support tube clockwise to its extreme position. This will
move the magnetic caliper closer to the flywheel rim. Set the
resistance adjustment wire to the correct tightness by
tightening the two adjustment nuts until the lever of the
magnetic caliper just touches the limiter screw on the frame
(Fig. 5). Lift the cycle back into the upright position.
EXERCISING
Working out using an exercise 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.
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.
MOUNTING THE PEDALS
Fasten the right pedal to the right pedal crank turning
clockwise and the left pedal to the left pedal crank turning
anticlockwise. Thepedalsaredistinguishedbythemarkings
R and L on their shafts (R = right, L = left).
Fasten the pedal straps so that the Tunturi logo faces
outward. 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 cycle is new, the fastening of the strap may seem
relatively tight.
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.
MOUNTING THE METER
Put two 1.5 V batteries into the battery holder at the back of
the meter, noting the + and - marks on the bottom of the
holder. Push the meter carefully into its place at the top of
the handlebar support tube.
Exercise efficiency can be measured by monitoring the
pulse. The TUNTURI F 400’s pulse meter helps you monitor
your pulse easily during exercise, and thus to ensure that
the exercise is sufficiently effective but not over-strenuous
(see MEASURING PULSE).
USE
SETTING THE SEAT HEIGHT
The seat height should be set so that the middle part of the
foot reaches the pedal with the leg almost straight and the
pedal at its lowest point.
METER
The easy-to-use meter of the F 400 measures pulse,
estimated energy consumption, time, speed and distance.
All the above functions are displayed simultenously. The
meter switches on automatically when you start pedalling or
press the RESET key, and switches off when you have not
pedalled or pressed the RESET key for about 4 min. By
pressing the RESET key when the meter is on, you can
reset the readings on the meter (time, estimated energy
consumption and distance) during your work out.
To raise or lower the seat:
A.
B.
First turn the locking knob once anticlockwise.
Then pull the locking knob out so that the seat tube
can bemoved freely up and down.
C.
D.
When the height is right, let go of the knob. The seat
locks into place.
Tighten the locking knob clockwise.

N.B. 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.
N.B. The shape of the ear
sensor designed by TUNTU-
RI makes it possible also to
measure pulse on inside
surface of the ear if, for
example, circulation is poor
in the earlobe, the earlobe is
too small or cartilaginous as
a result of piercing.
FUNCTIONS
PULSE
Shows pulse frequency per minute (40-240 beats/min). The
heart symbol beside the pulse value flashes in time with the
exerciser’s heartbeat (see MEASURING PULSE).
ENERGY CONSUMPTION
Shows estimated calorie consumption in kilocalories (0-999
kcal) during workout. In theory energy consumption is
calculated from pedalling resistance, speed and distance
pedalled,butbecausedifferentpeople’scapacitytoproduce
energy (efficiency) varies, the energy consumption display
shows only an approximation of the real consumption. This
meter calculates the energy consumption on the basis of
average values.
4.
The heart symbol beside the pulse value flashes in
time with the user’s heartbeat.
Exercise within different pulse ranges affects the body in
different ways. For example, exercise of long duration within
a pulse range that is about 50-60 % of the maximum pulse
helps you to lose weight, whereas exercise in a range that
is about 70-80 % of the maximum develops the heart and
respiratory system and overall endurance, i.e. improves
your condition.
TIME
Shows time counted upwards in minutes and seconds
(0:00-99:59).
If you don't know your maximum pulse rate, you can use the
following formulae as a guideline:
WOMEN: 226 - AGE, MEN: 220 - AGE
However, it is advisable to make sure by consulting your
doctor.
SPEED
Shows the speed you are pedalling at in km per hour (0.00-
99.9 km/h).
DISTANCE
Shows distance in km cumulatively (0.00-99.9 km).
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.
MEASURING PULSE
NOTE WHEN MEASURING YOUR PULSE
Measure the pulse as follows:
If the sensor does not immediately start measuring your
pulse, or if the earlobe is cold, rub the earlobe with the
fingers to speed up circulation. Physiological differences
between different people may also cause disturbances in
pulse measurement. In these cases, try measuring on the
inside surface of the ear or on the tip of your finger.
1.
2.
3.
Fit the ear sensor wire plug into the connecting point
on the bottom of the meter.
Attach the ear sensor to the earlobe where pulse is
to be measured.
If measuring disturbances appear while pedalling, test the
functioning of the sensor while stationary. Strong,
unintentional swaying while pedalling may also disturb
measurement. If pulse values rise above 150 beats/min.,
earlobe measurement may be affected by the speeding up
of circulation.
Attach the sensor wire e.g. to the collar with the
clip provided. This will prevent moving of the
sensor and insure a more accurate reading of the
pulse. Make sure also that the wire between the
earlobe and the clip is not too long or short so that
the sensor will stay firmly in place.
Sometimes a strong light source, e.g. a fluorescent tube, in
the immediate vicinity of the user may cause disturbances
in pulse measurement. In this case, test the functioning of
the sensor by turning the ear sensor the other way
round on the earlobe. Pulse reading can also be affected,
if the battery power of the meter is too low.
Remember to clean the ear sensor. Clean the ear sensor
after use, for example, with mild soapy water. Do not use
solvents.

TheF400hasabuiltinpulsereceiverwhichiscompatible
with a POLAR telemetric pulse transmitter, sold as an
optional extra. If you want to measure your pulse this way
during your workout, moisten the grooved electrodes on the
transmitter belt with saliva or water. Fasten the transmitter
just below the chest with the elastic belt, firmly enough so
that the electrodes remain in contact with the skin while
pedalling, butnotsotightthatnormalbreathingisprevented.
The heart symbol beside the pulse value flashes in time with
the user’s heartbeat.
Lean the cycle on its side so that it rests against e.g a chair
and you can easily reach the control mechanism of the
resistance adjustment wire under the frame.
N.B. Take your watch off before the following step, as it
may be damaged by the magnetic field of the brake
mechanism.
Push the approximately 1 mm thick plastic calibration strip
between the magnetic caliper and the flywheel. If the brake
caliper magnets are clearly further than 1 mm away from the
flywheel rim, first open the locking nuts of the limiter screw
and move the limiter screw slightly by turning the screw
while holding the nuts at the same time (Fig. 6). Retighten
the locking nuts of the limiter screw. Turn the adjustment
nuts of the resistance adjustment wire, so that the magnet
caliper is just in contact with the plastic strip with the
resistance at maximum.
N.B. IF YOU HAVE A HEART PACEMAKER, YOU MAY
USETHEPULSEMEASUREMENTTRANSMITTERONLY
ON A PHYSICIAN'S APPROVAL!
If you wear the transmitter and belt over a light shirt, moisten
the shirt slightly at the points where the electrodes touch the
shirt.
REMARKS ON
TELEMETRIC PULSE MEASUREMENT
N.B. Makesureyoudonotmaketheadjustmentnutstoo
tight.
Iftheelectrodesurfacesarenotmoist, thepulsereading
will not appear on the display. If the electrodes are dry,
they must be moistened again. Allow the electrodes to warm
up properly to ensure accurate pulse measurement.
Remove the calibration strip, lift the cycle into the upright
position and replace the side and top covers.
CHANGING BATTERIES
If there are several telemetric pulse measurement devices
next to each other, the distance between them should be at
least 1.5 m. Similarily, if there is only one receiver and
severaltransmittersinuse,onlyonepersonwithatransmitter
should be within transmission range.
If the meter display fades considerably or completely,
change the batteries. Pull the meter out and remove the old
batteries from the holder at the back of the meter. Push the
new batteries into the holder (2 x 1.5 V AA) and push the
meter back into its place at the top of the handlebar support
tube.
The transmitter is switched to an active state only when it is
being used for measurement. Sweat and other moisture
can, however, keep the transmitter in an active state and
waste battery energy. Therefore it is important to dry the
electrodes carefully after use.
If you notice a malfunction during use, contact the
dealer. Always give the serial number of your device!
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 device for
repair, as it is usually sufficient to replace the defective part.
To prevent any extra pulses coming from the ear sensor,
unplug the ear sensor when you use the telemetric pulse
meter.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
MAINTENANCE
Move the cycle according to the following instruction: stand
behind the cycle, grip the seat with one hand and the
handle-bar with the other. Lift the cycle so that it rests on the
transportation wheels and move it by wheeling. Lower the
cycle onto the floor while holding on to the handlebar and
remaining all the time behind the cycle.
The F 400 requires very little maintenance. Check, however,
from time to time that all fastening screws and nuts are tight.
Clean the cycle with a damp cloth. Do not use solvents.
If the cycle is transported long distances without packing it,
the position of the brake caliper may change, for example,
due to vibration. To check the position of the brake caliper
in relation to the flywheel, proceed as follows:
To prevent malfunctioning of the cycle, store in a dry place
with as little temperature variation as possible, protected
against dust.
Lean the cycle on its side so that it rests against e.g. a chair
andyoucanseeunderthecycleeasily.Adjusttheresistance
to maximum by turning the resistance adjustment knob to its
extreme clockwise position. Check that the limiter screw
(hex screw) of the brake caliper lever has not moved. If the
brake caliper lever does not touch the limiter screw with the
resistance at maximum, turn the adjustment nuts of the
resistance adjustment wire until the lever touches the limiter
screw. Lift the cycle back to the upright position.
