Creating Custom Courses on the M9.20s
You can program the M9.20s and create your own course profiles using the two
custom courses (“CUST. 1” and “CUST. 2”). Programming a custom course is
easy. You just create the custom courses as you work out by determining the
speed and incline for each 0.1 mile segment along the 8-mile maximum course
length. Speed and incline settings are saved once every .1 of a mile which
equals 10 dots on the display. Once you complete your workout, the course is
stored in memory and can be automatically recalled using the same program
number.
To create a custom course, take the following steps:
1. Straddle the running belt and hold onto the handrail with one hand. Use
your other hand to press the keys on the electronic console.
2. When you see “PRESS ENTER TO BEGIN” scroll across the display,
specify your weight using the arrow keys. When the correct weight is
displayed, press ENTER.
3. At the “SELECT COURSE” prompt, choose your custom course: either
“CUST. 1” or “CUST. 2.” Press the or keys until you see the desired
course, then press ENTER.
Note: After pressing ENTER, a prompt scrolls across the display warning
you that the custom course contains set speed and inclines. You are not
to use the course if you are not familiar with it. The following instructions
(5 through 9) assume that you are programming a new custom course.
However, if you want to use the existing custom course, press SPEED
to begin.
Important: After pressing ENTER, clear an existing custom course
profile by simultaneously pressing both the INCLINE keys for at
least 3 seconds. The course profile reverts to a blinking line at 0% incline.
Be cautious about performing this procedure. Once you clear an existing
course profile, you cannot retrieve it.
4. Hold onto the handrail and press the SPEED key. Step onto the running
belt while the speed is at or below 1 mph and begin walking. Use the
INCLINE keys to change the course profile as you walk. The first time
the custom courses appear, the profile appears flat (0 % incline) until you
change it.
