slightly forward to tilt the seat back up. Release the handle, then shift
your weight slightly until you hear the tilt lock pop into position.
Note: Once you have adjusted the tilt of the seat back to a comfortable position, pedal forward and
recheck your leg extension. You may need to readjust the seat height to compensate for the
change in tilt.
Tip: Be sure to record the position numbers of both the seat height (1-20) and the seat back tilt (1-5)
so that you can quickly set the seat when you are ready to begin your next workout.
