Keypad Tips
Important: The keys on the keypad are touch-sensitive. A light “touch” is all that
is required to activate the key function.
• Accurate entries are required or features such as SmartRate will not work properly.
• During the Setup prompts, you can change the information being displayed by
pressing any ▼ or ▲ key. (Incline and speed levels are not affected until the
course begins.)
• Press Select to select the information being displayed.
• Pressing QuickStart at the Precor banner bypasses further selections and
displays the Manual course. Default values apply. The SmartRate
®
display does
not appear. Refer to
The Setup Mode and the QuickStart
TM
Feature
on page 27.
• A time-out occurs during the Setup prompts if the M9.31 detects no key presses
for two minutes. The display returns to the Precor banner.
• Press Reset to return to the Precor banner.

Keys on the Keypad
The following information explains the different uses of the keys from left to right. To
locate each key, look at the display console or refer to Diagram 18.
INCLINE ▲▼: During a workout, the Incline ▲▼ keys let you increase or decrease
the incline in 5% increments. The display can show a range from 0 to 15. Setting 0 is
the level (and lowest) incline.
When you change the incline by pressing the Incline ▲ or ▼ key, the number that
appears on the display shows the
target
incline (not necessarily, the present incline)
because the display can change much faster than the treadmill’s lift.
Note: Any time during your workout, you can view the actual incline by lightly
touching either Incline ▲ or ▼ key. You can opt to change the incline, if you hold the
key down for more than one second.
