Specifying MPH or KPH

The M9.3s Low-Impact Treadmill can display speed in miles per hour (mph) or
kilometers per hour (kph). When the M9.3s is shipped from the factory, it
displays speed in mph. You can easily change this setting by following the
steps below. The M9.3s treadmill will retain your selection even when it is
turned off or unplugged. You can change your selection at any time by repeat-
ing these steps.

CAUTION: Do not stand on the belt during this procedure.

Place the magnetic safety key on the ACTIVATE position of the electronic
console. Walk to the rear of the treadmill and turn the power switch to ON.

you can turn on the treadmill.)

2.

Straddle the running belt with your feet firmly planted on the right and left
staging platforms. (Stand close enough so you can extend your arm and
touch the keypad.)  Use the clip on the magnetic safety key to attach it to
your clothing at your waistline.

3.

When the prompt “Enter Weight” appears, press and hold the green
SPEED key and the SCAN/ENTER key. Release both keys.

4.
