CAUTION: Do not allow children on or
near the treadmill at anytime. If anything
should get caught in the rollers, the
running belt does not stop immediately.
CAUTION: Before beginning any fitness
program, have your physician give you a
complete physical examination.

Using the M9.55 Treadmill

A special feature of the M9.55 is its interactive display which lets you select a user I.D.
(1 of 4) and enter workout specific information such as, weight, preferred course, and
age. Each person that uses the treadmill (up to four people) can have their own user I.D.
and personalize their workout session. Refer to User I.D. on page 28.
When you begin a course, the treadmill displays your workout statistics. Once your
workout is complete, the cumulative totals (Time, Distance, and Calories) are stored
with your user I.D. By selecting the same user I.D., prior to your next workout, the
information about your weight, preferred course, age, and cumulative workout records
is retrieved and appears on the display. You have the option to change the WEIGHT,
COURSE, and AGE fields, or press Enter to begin working out.
Your treadmill also contains a Quick Start feature which lets you bypass the interac-
tive display and start your workout immediately using the Manual course. When you
press Quick Start while the Precor banner is displayed, your workout statistics are not
saved to any particular user I.D. Refer to Using the Quick Start Feature on page 23, to
learn more about this particular feature.

Safety Features
The M9.55 treadmill is a powerful machine. Children should not be allowed on or
near the treadmill. You should assemble and use the treadmill in a safe and secure
location. Other safety aspects to consider include:
• Always attach the security clip to your clothing prior to working out.
• To help prevent unauthorized use, the M9.55 provides password protection. The
password is enabled at the factory. Refer to Entering a Password below.
• Prior to the start of a course, the display will return to the Precor banner if more
than 2-minutes elapse without a key press occurring. This feature is helpful if you
get called away just prior to starting your workout. However, do not assume that
this feature makes the treadmill secure from unauthorized use.

Using the Security Clip

A security clip is attached by its cord to the red Stop button above the center
handrail. Always attach the security clip to your clothing before each workout. A tug
on the cord trips the security switch and slows the running belt to a stop. If the
security switch trips while you are working out, the treadmill retains your workout
statistics and enters Pause mode. To resume your workout, reattach the security clip
to your clothing, and press the Speed
Note: A Velcro ® patch is located on the right side of the console by the handrail. Use
it to store the clip while the treadmill is not being used.

Entering a Password

The M9.55 is equipped with password protection to help prevent unauthorized use. The
password involves entering the following key sequence: Incline
at the password prompt. An asterisk appears on the display with each correct entry. If
the correct password is not entered within 2 minutes, access to the course is denied and
the running belt will not move. The Precor banner reappears on the display.
