Using a Preprogrammed Course on the M9.20s

To use a preprogrammed course, follow the instructions below. Remember, when you use the electronic console, hold onto the handrail to maintain your balance. You should also use the handrail whenever you speed up, slow down, or stop the treadmill.

CAUTION: If this is the first time you have operated this treadmill, DO NOT STAND on the running belt until you become familiar with M9.20s operations. Be sure to read and follow the general guidelines found in Working Out on Your M9.20/s Treadmill prior to using the treadmill.

1.On the electronic console, move the magnetic safety key to the ACTIVATE position (shown in Diagram 11, page 15). Walk to the front of the treadmill and turn ON the treadmill using the ON/OFF switch. The treadmill switch will not turn ON unless the safety key is seated securely in the ACTIVATE position.

2.Straddle the running belt with your feet firmly planted on the right and left side platforms. Stand close enough to the electronic console so that you can extend your arms and activate the keys.

3.Using the clip provided, securely attach the magnetic safety key to your clothing at your waistline, where it will not interfere with your workout.

4.When you see “ENTER WEIGHT” scroll across the display, specify your

weight using any key. When the correct weight is displayed, press ENTER. This information allows the M9.20s to calculate how many calories you use during your workout.

The number on the display moves in 5-pound increments up or down, depending on the arrow key pressed. Use to increase and to decrease the weight displayed.

Once your weight is specified, you may not need to enter it again. The treadmill automatically remembers the last weight entered (unless the treadmill is turned OFF). At your next workout, you restore your weight from the treadmill’s memory by simply pressing ENTER at the “ENTER WEIGHT” prompt. However, if someone else has used the treadmill and made changes prior to your workout, you will need to re-enter your weight.

Note: The prompt “PRESS ENTER TO BEGIN” appears after a few seconds if you have not chosen a course and pressed ENTER. This prompt continues to scroll across the display every few seconds until you press ENTER.

CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness program, you should have a complete physical examination by your physician. If you are unsure about your level of fitness, consult your physician. Always start your workout at the low or “easy” level and work to increase your level of fitness before performing moderate or advanced workout routines.
