Precor M9.20s instruction

5.At the “SELECT COURSE” prompt, choose your workout course using the

keys: either WALK, RUN, CUST. 1, CUST. 2, MAN’L, INTV, WT.LS. and then press ENTER. The course you choose takes you through a set series of incline intervals, with inclines varying according to the level of the course.

If you choose WALK or RUN a prompt appears asking that you select a level: (EASY, MODerate, or ADVanced). It is always recommended that you start a workout at the EASY level.

Diagram 12 on the previous page provides an illustration of the available preprogrammed courses. The courses combine .5-mile segments with a set series of inclines. The percent of incline and the frequency with which inclines are encountered indicate the difficulty of the course. For example, WALK EASY takes the user through inclines ranging from 0 to 3 percent grade, while RUN ADV uses inclines in the minimum to maximum range on a more frequent basis. The software simply repeats the .5-mile segments until the distance or time limit you set is reached, or you press the STOP key.

Note: If you do not press ENTER to select a course, after 10 seconds the prompt “PRESS ENTER TO BEGIN” appears. This prompt continues to scroll across the display every few seconds until ENTER is pressed.

6.At the “SELECT MILES (kilometers)” prompt, specify the length of your course. Press the arrow keys to choose distance; the display moves in

.5 increments, from .5 to 50 miles (.8 to 80 kilometers). Press ENTER when the desired distance appears.

Note: You can change the “SELECT TIME” prompt to “SELECT DISTANCE” if you prefer to measure your workout by distance. Follow the procedure in Selecting the Time or Distance Prompt.

If you see “SELECT TIME” scroll across the display, specify the length of your workout. Press the or key to choose time; the display moves in 1-minute increments, from 5 to 50 minutes. Press ENTER when the desired time appears.

7.Stand on the running belt with one hand on the handrail, prepared to start walking. With your other hand, press the SPEED until you reach your desired speed.

The course will continue until the specified distance or time is reached, or until the STOP key is pressed. Any time during your workout, you can change your speed. However, since the incline is pre-set, the incline keys are disabled.

8.When you are finished working out or you have come to the end of the course, hold onto the handrail and press STOP. The treadmill will come to a safe stop. Be sure to remove the magnetic safety key from your clothing and return it to the OFF position on the electronic console. To prevent unauthorized use, remove the safety key and store it in a safe place.

Note: If desired, you can cool down before ending your workout by pressing STOP twice in quick succession. The treadmill will stop and enter the Manual mode, allowing you to specify the speed and incline of your cool-down period.
