Working Out on the Low Impact Treadmill

Before using your treadmill, we recommend that you follow these instructions and go through a preliminary demonstration of the treadmill.

When using the treadmill, follow these general guidelines:

At the beginning of a workout, take several minutes to bring your heart rate into your training zone, shown in Diagram 15 in Chapter 6.

After your workout, walk slowly for several minutes to cool down your body and lower your heart rate. Use the cool-down feature on your treadmill.

Using the clip provided, attach the magnetic safety key to your clothing at your waistline before each workout. Then, if you encounter difficulties or want to end your workout, you can easily stop the running belt by pulling on the cord.

Before and after a workout, gently stretch your lower body and back to help prevent stiffness or soreness.

A variety of exercise options are available on the M9.21i or M9.21si. The course profiles on the M9.21i (refer to the label on the electronic console) provide workouts from manual mode to preprogrammed, customized courses, and heart rate interactive courses. (To use the Smart Rate and Heart Rate features, you will need to purchase the Precor Heart Rate Option.)

To work out on the M9.21i or M9.21si, take the following steps:

1.For Smart Rate or your HEART RATE to appear on the display, the heart rate receiver must be installed in the electronic console display and you need to wear the chest strap transmitter. Refer to Wearing the Chest Strap Transmitter to learn how to properly use the chest strap.

2.Insert the magnetic safety key into the electronic console compartment.

3.Locate the ON/OFF (I/O) switch at the front of the treadmill and turn ON the treadmill. The Precor banner scrolls across the electronic console display.
