Precor Bicycle-mounted Child Seat C842 Manuals

This addendum accompanies the C842 or C846 Owner’s Manual and describes the changes that have occurred with the introduction of the C846i product. On the C846i, new labels appear on the display, but do not change the functionality of the unit. The owner’s manual uses the words course and course selection, while the labels display programs and program selection. To lessen confusion, please remember that wherever you come across the word “course” in the owner’s manual, you need to replace it with the word “program.” OPTIONAL POWER ADAPTER With the C842 or C846i product, if you choose to purchase the optional power adapter, you must also purchase the internal cable kit. This kit supplies a cable, bracket and fasteners that allow the power adapter to connect to the lower electronics board. CAUTION: The internal cable kit requires installation by an authorized service person. Do not attempt installation on your own as you could void the Precor limited warranty. If you need assistance, please see Obtaining Service in your owner’s manual. SEAT ADJUSTMENT On the C846i and C842, you can adjust the seat tilt by taking the following steps: 1.
