The electronic console lets you control your M9.20 or M9.20s treadmill session. As you work out, the electronic display provides constant feedback about your progress. Information about distance covered, elapsed time, speed, calories burned, and degree of incline is available at any time. Diagram 10 shows an example of the M9.20s electronic console.
