When you are working out, if the display is set to “scan” two indicator lights
appear to the left of the word SCAN on the display and remain stationary while
you are in the SCAN mode. Another two indicator lights appear next to the field
that is being displayed. The indicator lights move sequentially through each
field every time a new field appears on the display.

The distance you have travelled appears once you begin a workout. Distance
can appear in miles or kilometers. If you bought your treadmill in the U.S., it is
programmed at the factory to display the U.S. standard units of measure. If you
wish to change the display, you can follow the instructions found in 

Changing

the Display to U.S. Standard or Metric  in this manual. The maximum distance
you can travel in a single workout is 99.99 miles (161 km) before the odometer
resets at 00.00 and begins over again.

During your workout, a time (00:00) display appears automatically and stops
whenever you stop walking or running. As you work out, you will notice that the
time starts at zero and counts up when you use manual, interval, or weight loss
modes. Time appears in minutes and seconds until you reach 90 minutes
(during a single workout), then it appears in hours and minutes.

Once you begin a workout, the speed at which you are travelling appears in
this display. Your speed can appear in miles per hour (.5 to 9 mph) or
kilometers per hour (.8 to 14 kph). If you wish to change the display, you can
follow the instructions found in 

Changing the Display to U.S. Standard or

Metric.

When you enter your accurate weight, the number of calories you are burning
appears in this display while you work out. At the end of your workout, the total
calories burned is displayed.

The M9.20/s treadmill provides a range of inclines from 1% to 10%. You can
change the incline and increase or decrease the level of your workout by
pressing the INCLINE 

 keys.

Keys on the Electronic Console

The keys on the electronic console let you change the speed and incline, stop
or reset the treadmill and its displays, and set the SCAN mode or display a
particular feature. Each key and its function is explained below:

Use the SPEED 

 keys to change belt speed. Belt speed starts at .5 miles

per hour (mph) and increases in .1 mph (.2 kilometers per hour) increments
while you hold the 

 

key. The M9.20/s treadmill allows you to increase speed

up to 9 mph (14 kph). When you decrease speed, belt speed decreases at a
rate of .1 mph (.2 kph) while you hold the 

 

key.

Anytime during your workout, you can view your speed in minutes per mile (or
kilometer). In other words, you can see how many minutes it takes you to walk
or jog a mile (or kilometer). To use this feature, simultaneously press both
SPEED 

 keys and the information will appear on the screen. When you

release both keys, the speed display returns to the per hour measurement you
originally set. See 

Changing the Display to U.S. Standard or Metric.
