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.
