9Remove Safety Key and store it in a secure place. Turn OFF the treadmill.

To workout on the treadmill, follow these instructions.

1.On the electronic console, place the magnetic safety key in the ACTIVATE position. Walk to the front of the treadmill and turn ON the treadmill using the ON/OFF switch. The safety key must be in the ACTIVATE position before you can turn ON the treadmill.

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 you can extend your arms and touch the keypad.

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 the keys. When the correct weight is displayed, press ENTER.

The number on the display moves in 5-pound (2-kilogram) increments. You must select the weight closest to your to your actual weight so that the treadmill can provide accurate feedback about calories burned during a workout.

Once your weight is specified, you may not need to enter it again. The treadmill automatically remembers the last weight entered. At your next workout, simply press ENTER at the “ENTER WEIGHT” prompt. (If another person has used the machine and changed the weight, you will need to re-enter your weight as described in this step.)

5.At the “SELECT COURSE” prompt, choose your workout mode, either Interval (INTV), Manual

(MANL), or one of the preprogrammed courses (M9.2s only). Press the keys until you see the desired mode, then press ENTER. For more information about the two different modes, read the following pages.

Once you specify the mode, the treadmill automatically remembers it. If no one else uses the treadmill or makes any changes before your next workout, you can simply press ENTER at the “SELECT COURSE” prompt and activate the same mode.

Important: If you choose “INTV” mode, refer to Changing the Interval Course Profile before continuing on to the next steps.

6.Hold onto the handrail with one hand and press the SPEED key with the other hand. Step onto the running belt while it is at or below 1 mph. Once you are comfortable with the walking or running speed, you may remove your hands from the handrail.

Note: To pause during your workout session, press the STOP key. The features on the display remain, but your workout statistics stop accumulating. See Pausing Your Workout or Ending Your Workout for more information. Remember to hold onto the handrail when using the electronic console and when slowing down or stopping the running belt.

7.When you are finished exercising, hold onto the handrail and press STOP or press SPEED . The running belt slows to a stop. You can then review your workout results as the display scans through DISTANCE, TIME, and CALORIES.

Important: Always allow yourself a cool-down period of a few minutes before bringing the running belt to a complete stop. On the M9.2s, press STOP twice in quick succession at the end of a course to access Manual mode and begin a cool-down period.

8.If desired, after reviewing the displays, reset them to zero by pressing and holding STOP for several seconds.

9.Detach the magnetic safety key cord from your clothing and place the safety key in the OFF position on the electronic console. The treadmill turns OFF. To prevent unauthorized use, remove the safety key from the treadmill and store it in a safe place.
