Choosing a Program
Program Tips
Choosing a program depends on your goals. If you are a
beginner or returning to regular exercise, you can start a
cardio-conditioning program to slowly return your body to a
comfortable level of exercise. If you have been exercising and
feel that you have an intermediate or advanced fitness level,
you probably have established goals. The Precor web site
workouts and advice from the experts.
• Work out indefinitely in a program. At the ENTER TIME
prompt, use the arrow keys to select NO LIMIT or, on the
M9.35i, press the number zero. While you exercise, TIME
indicates the amount of time you have been exercising. If
you choose to exercise without a time limit, the automatic
5-minute cool-down period is eliminated. You will need to
incorporate a cool-down period by accessing the Manual
Program.
Several workout choices on the treadmill are pre-
programmed with recommendations for incline levels, pace,
and alternating intervals. You always have the option to
override the suggested levels with the exception of the
M9.35i Fitness Test.
Note: Programs that bypass the ENTER TIME prompt
have a fixed time limit or goal.
• If a workout time or goal exists, the TIME display indicates
the amount of time remaining in your workout session.
• A blinking column tracks the progress that you make
during a program.
If your level of exertion becomes too great, reduce your pace
or change the incline using the arrow keys to override each
upcoming column in the program profile. If you use the arrow
keys, the program profile changes accordingly. When you
complete a program that contains a time limit or distance
limit, an automatic 5-minute cool-down period begins.
• When you select a user ID and a preset program such as
Easy Walk or 5K, incline variations in the final column of
the program are recorded.
• The interval programs record both incline and speed
variations which appear the next time you choose the
same interval program and user ID.
• On the M9.35i, the distance-based programs record and
show your personal best record when you select a user ID
and complete the program.

This M9.35i program lets you designate a fixed calorie goal.
When you reach your goal, the program ends and the
automatic 5-minute cool-down period begins.
Two custom programs are available with each user ID. As
you exercise, you customize the program by determining the
speed or incline settings for each 1-minute column along the
length of the profile. As each column elapses, the speed and
incline for that column are stored in memory.
After selecting the Calories Goal Program, specify your
calorie goal in the blinking CALORIE display. Acceptable
entries range from 10 to 5000 calories. Use the arrow keys
to change the value, and then press ENTER to begin.
The subsequent columns repeat the last programmed speed
or incline and are reflected in the program profile. Change
the speed or incline using the arrow keys. When you
complete the program, the settings are automatically recalled
using the same user ID and program number.
Note: Custom programs only appear if you select a user ID.

time appears when you record new columns.
Clearing the Settings in a Custom Program
Perform the following steps to clear (delete) any speed and
incline settings stored in a custom program.
Note: The length of the custom program and the number of
speed and incline settings is limited to available memory in
the treadmill. The program will not end if the available
memory is exhausted, but the display notifies you and further
changes to speed or incline are not saved. Approximately
1¹⁄₂ hours of recording time is available.
1. At the Precor banner, select a user ID, and then press
ENTER.
2. Display the custom program that you wish to clear.
Important: Clearing the speed and incline settings from a
custom program permanently deletes them from memory.
3. While the custom program name appears on the display,
hold the red STOP button for about fourteen seconds.
After the CLEARED message appears on the display, you
can release the key. Speed and incline information are
reset to zero.
Note: During the 14-second delay and before the
CLEARED message appears, you can release the red
STOP button and no change will occur to the custom

The Heart Rate Program lets you set a target for your heart
rate. The program adjusts incline to maintain your heart rate
within two beats per minute of the target heart rate while you
exercise. To use this program, you must wear the chest strap
so the treadmill can monitor your heart rate throughout the
session.
During your workout, the number that represents your heart
rate appears in the Heart Rate display.
For information about understanding your target heart rate,
refer to Heart Rate Features.

The heart rate programs have been designed specifically for
Precor treadmills by Dr. Emily Cooper of Seattle
Performance Medicine. The programs (HR Endurance, HR
Heart Health, HR Speed, and HR Weight Loss) are similar to
the Heart Rate Program, but the HR programs move you
through more specific cardio-conditioning fitness zones.
Examples include warm-up, weight loss, cardio-conditioning,
peak, and cool down.
• When you complete the program, remember to add a
cool-down period.
Note: If you are having difficulty with the heart rate features,
refer to Troubleshooting Heart Rate.
Each program adjusts the incline to maintain your heart rate
within two beats per minute of the target heart rate while you
exercise. To use these programs, you must wear the chest
strap so the treadmill can monitor your heart rate throughout
the session.

program.
Program
Description
HR Speed
Intensify your workout with intervals that
consistently increase incline and speed.
Be aware the HR Speed Program is an
intense program designed to increase your
anaerobic threshold and improve your
percentage of aerobic capacity. Best
results occur if you are already in good
physical shape and conditioning.
Program
Description
HR Endurance Increase your aerobic activity and improve
heart muscle strength and power. The
HR Endurance Program also provides a
high intensity workout that enhances your
fat-burning capability and increases
your endurance. If you are beginning or
returning to regular exercise, start with the
Heart Rate Program or the HR Weight
Loss Program before moving on to the HR
Endurance Program.
HR Weight
Loss
Improve fat-burning results and increase
endurance every time you exercise. Use
the HR Weight Loss Program especially if
you are beginning exercise routines. It will
help you achieve weight loss and increase
your aerobic capacity.
HR Heart
Health
Add variety and increase your endurance.
The HR Heart Health Program is a good
choice if you have been using the HR
Weight Loss program for several weeks
and wish to try something different. The
HR Health Program keeps you in the
weight loss zone 50% of the time and in
the cardio-conditioning zone throughout
the other half.

percentage of incline and the frequency with which the profile
changes determine the level of difficulty. You can override the
incline level by pressing the INCLINE arrow keys.
Walk in the Park is a relatively easy walk, designed to
increase muscle tone, cardio-conditioning, and endurance
over several weeks.

Note: To conduct electrical impulses from a user’s heart,
both touch-sensitive handrail grips must be grasped firmly
for five to ten seconds. Usually, the concentration of salts
in a person’s perspiration provides enough conductivity to
transmit a signal to the receiver in the display console.
However, because of body chemistry or erratic heartbeats,
some people cannot use the heart rate feature. A chest strap
may provide better results. Refer to the QuickStart Card for
proper placement of the chest strap.
Troubleshooting Heart Rate
Table 6 may help you understand and troubleshoot erratic
heart rate readings.
Important: A heart rate can only be detected when the
Precor heart rate receiver is properly installed in the display
and the treadmill is turned on. You must also wear the chest
strap or hold on to both touch-sensitive handrail grips.

Maintenance
It is important to perform the minor maintenance tasks
described in this section. Failure to maintain the treadmill as
described here could void the Precor Limited Warranty.

Replace missing or worn safety lanyards immediately.
Do not exercise on the treadmill without attaching the
safety clip to your clothing.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock,

provider in your area, refer to Obtaining Service.
always unplug the unit from its power
source before cleaning it or
performing any maintenance tasks.
Cleaning the Equipment
Most of the working mechanisms are protected inside the
hood and base of the treadmill. However, for efficient
operation, the treadmill relies on low friction. To keep the
friction low, the unit’s running belt, staging platforms, and
internal mechanisms must be as clean as possible.
Inspection
Inspect the treadmill daily.
1. Look and listen for slipping belts, loose fasteners, unusual
noises, worn or frayed power cords, and any other
indications that the equipment may be in need of service.
If you notice any of these, obtain service.
Precor recommends the treadmill be cleaned before and
after each workout. Use mild soap and water to dampen a
soft cloth and wipe all exposed surfaces. This helps remove
any dust or dirt.
Important: If you determine that the treadmill needs
service, ensure that the treadmill cannot be used
inadvertently. Turn the unit OFF, and then unplug the
power cord from its power source. Make sure other users
know that the treadmill needs service.
CAUTION: Do not use any acidic cleaners. Doing so will
void the Precor Limited Warranty. Never pour water or
spray liquids on any part of the treadmill. Allow the
treadmill to dry completely before using.

Periodically, clean the running belt using a soft nylon scrub
brush. Frequently vacuum the floor underneath the unit to
prevent the accumulation of dust and dirt, which can affect
the smooth operation of the unit.
Checking the Alignment of the
Running Belt
Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and
ensures smooth operation. Realigning the belt takes a few
simple adjustments. If you are unsure about this procedure,
call Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
Storing the Chest Strap
Store the chest strap where dust and dirt cannot accumulate
on it, such as a closet or drawer. Be sure to keep the chest
strap protected from extremes in temperature. Do not store it
in an area that may be exposed to temperatures below 32° F
(0° C).
CAUTION: Special care must be taken when aligning the
running belt. Turn OFF the treadmill while adjusting or
working near the rear roller. Remove any loose clothing
and tie back your hair. Be very careful to keep your fingers
and any other object clear of the belt and rollers,
especially in front of the roller and behind the deck. The
treadmill will not stop immediately if an object becomes
caught in the belt or rollers
To clean the chest strap, use a sponge or soft cloth
dampened in mild soap and water. Dry the surface
thoroughly with a clean towel.
1. The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Make sure that the
running surface is level. If the treadmill is placed on an
uneven surface, adjusting the rear feet can help, but will
not compensate for extremely uneven surfaces.
2. Turn the unit ON.
3. Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.

Customer Support (refer to Obtaining Service).
CAUTION: For your safety, use the I/O power switch to
turn OFF the treadmill before making any adjustments. Do
not adjust the running belt when someone is standing on
the unit.
5. Press the SPEED ▲ key until the display shows a speed
of 3 mph (5 kph).
CAUTION: If you hear any chafing or the running belt
appears to be getting damaged, stop the running belt
immediately by pressing the red STOP button. Contact
Precor Customer Support.
1. Locate the right belt adjustment bolt in the rear end
cap of the treadmill. Make all belt adjustments on the right
rear corner bolt using the hex key provided. Refer to
Diagram 8.
6. Walk around to the rear of the unit and observe the belt
for a few minutes. The belt should be centered on the
running belt. If the belt drifts off center, you must make
adjustments.
Important: If the belt needs alignment, make the
adjustments at once. Failure to align the belt may cause
the belt to tear or fray, which is not covered by the Precor
Limited Warranty.
7. To stop the running belt, press the red STOP button.
8. Turn the treadmill OFF.

• If the belt is off center to the LEFT, turn the adjusting
bolt ¼ turn counterclockwise, which moves the running
belt to the right.
Long-Term Storage
When the treadmill is not in use for any length of time, turn it
OFF. Make sure that the power cord is unplugged from its
power source and is positioned so that it will not become
damaged or interfere with people or other equipment.
• If the belt tracks off center to the RIGHT, turn the bolt
¼ turn clockwise; this moves the belt to the left.
Important: Do not turn the adjusting bolt more than ¼
turn at a time. Overtightening the bolt can damage the
treadmill.
2. Recheck the alignment of the running belt.
Servicing the Treadmill
Do not attempt to service the treadmill yourself except for the
maintenance tasks described in this manual. The unit
does not contain any user-serviceable parts that require
lubrication. For information about product operation or

QUICKSTART™
CAUTION: Before using the treadmill, read all these
instructions. Failure to do so may result in serious injury.
Begin Your Workout with QUICKSTART
• Do not allow children or those unfamiliar with its
operation on or near the treadmill.
1. Turn ON the treadmill, using the I/O power switch on the
front panel.
• Before beginning any fitness program, see
your physician for a thorough physical
examination. Seek advice from your physician
to learn the target heart rate appropriate for
your fitness level.
2. Step on the treadmill.
3. Face the display and straddle the running belt.
4. Attach the safety clip to your clothing.
5. Hold on to the handrail with one hand.
6. Press QUICKSTART.

dizziness, stop exercising
immediately.
8. Step on to the running belt with the speed at 1 mph
(1 kph), and begin exercising.
• To increase the belt speed, press SPEED ▲.
• To increase or decrease the incline or speed, use the
INCLINE or SPEED arrow keys.
• To pause, press the red STOP button.
Use the Safety Clip
• At the beginning of a workout, take several
minutes to bring your heart rate into your target
zone (shown in Diagram D on the other side of
this card).
Always attach the safety clip
to your clothing before each
workout. A tug on the lanyard
trips the safety switch inside
the display and stops the
running belt. If the safety
switch trips while you are
exercising, the treadmill retains
your workout statistics and
enters pause mode. To resume
your workout, reattach the
safety clip to your clothing,
enter the password, and then
press the SPEED ▲ key.
• Incorporate a cool-down period into your
workout to help lower your heart rate and
minimize muscle stiffness and soreness.
9. Enter a cool-down period by lowering the speed and
incline. End your workout by pressing STOP.
10. Press STOP again to display your workout summary.
The display show your cumulative time, distance, and the
number of calories burned during your workout.
• Keys on the keypad respond to the slightest
touch. Use gentle pressure on the keys as you
exercise.
11. Remove the safety clip from your clothing and hold on to
the handrail as you step off the treadmill.
• To display your heart rate, wear a chest strap or
use both hands to grasp the touch-sensitive
handrail grips.
12. To prevent unauthorized use, turn the treadmill OFF.

1. Carefully dampen the back of the strap with tap
water (Diagram A).
For the greatest benefits, maintain your heart rate in
either zone (weight loss or cardiovascular) for 30
minutes or more at least three times a week.
Choose a Program
•
Determine your level of fitness: beginner,
intermediate, or advanced.
Important: Do not use deionized water. It does
not have the proper minerals and salts to conduct
electrical impulses.
CAUTION: Your heart rate should never exceed
85% of your maximum aerobic heart rate or go
above your target zone (Diagram D).
•
Determine your immediate goal: endurance
training, cardio-conditioning, or weight loss.
If you are a beginner, start a cardio-conditioning
program to slowly adjust your body to a comfortable
level of exercise. Over a recommended 8-week
period, you will increase your endurance and strength
while improving flexibility.
2. Adjust the strap and fasten it around your chest.
The strap should feel snug, not restrictive

If you have been exercising and feel that you have

probably have established goals for yourself.

For all fitness levels, plan to exercise at a comfortable

SmartRate® and Heart Rate Features
Wear a Chest Strap
During a workout, the heart rate features appear on
the display when you wear a chest strap. To receive
an accurate reading, the strap needs to be in direct
contact with your skin. Be sure to wear the chest
strap underneath your clothing.
The SmartRate and heart rate displays provide visual
cues that help you adjust your fitness routine to reach
your goals. Use these features to keep your heart rate
within the target zones for weight loss or cardio-
conditioning.
Cool Down After Your Workout
Cooling down is an important aspect of your
workout because it helps reduce muscle stiffness
and soreness by transporting excess lactic acid out
of the working muscles. Cooling down for at least
three minutes helps provide a smooth transition
that allows your heart rate to return to its normal,
non-exercising state.
Note: The Precor heart rate receiver must be properly
installed in the display console before a heartbeat can
be detected. Check with your dealer to make sure it is
installed in your product.
When you begin a workout, a blinking segment in the
SmartRate display appears if you entered your age
during the setup phase. The blinking segment
indicates the current zone of your heart rate: weight
loss or cardiovascular. For the ideal weight loss range,
your heart rate should remain between 55% and 70%
of your maximum aerobic heart rate. To improve your
overall cardiovascular and respiratory fitness level,
maintain your heart rate between 70% and 85% of
your maximum aerobic heart rate.

Thank you for choosing Precor. For proper installation, please read this guide
thoroughly and follow the assembly instructions. If you do not assemble the
treadmill according to these guidelines, you could void the Precor Limited
Warranty.
Installation Requirements
Follow these installation requirements when assembling the unit:
•
•
Assemble the unit near the location where you plan to use it.
Provide ample space around the unit.
Open space around the unit allows for easier access.
Obtaining Service
•
Set up the unit on a solid, flat surface.
A smooth, flat surface under the unit helps keep it level. A level unit has fewer
malfunctions.
You should not attempt to service the treadmill except for minor belt adjustments
and maintenance as described in the owner’s manual. If any items are missing,
contact your dealer. Should you need more information regarding Customer
Support numbers or a list of Precor authorized Service Centers, visit the Precor
•
•
Open the box and assemble the components in the sequence presented
in this guide.
Insert all fasteners in the same direction.
For aesthetic purposes, insert all the fasteners in the same direction unless
specified (in text or illustrations) to do otherwise.
Unpacking the Equipment
•
Insert all fasteners with your fingers.
The treadmill is carefully tested and inspected before shipment. The unit is shipped
in one box. Ask for help from two or more people to unpack and assemble the
treadmill.
Use your fingers to properly align and thread the fasteners before wrench
tightening. This helps alleviate cross-threading. Do not fully wrench tighten
fasteners until instructed to do so.
Important: When wrench-tightened, the head of the fastener should be flush
with the product. If it is not, cross-threading has occurred. Do not attempt to
rework the assembly as more damage to the equipment will occur. Call
Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.

Use the ¼-inch hex key to remove the four handrail
clamp screws. Set the lower handrail clamp and
fasteners aside.
Note: In steps 9 and 10, wrench tighten each fastener until
the head is flush against the assembled part and then
reverse the motion to loosen the fasteners by one or two full
turns. Some movement in the handrails is necessary to allow
for proper alignment of the assembly.
Slide the ends of the handrails toward the center handrail
clamp and secure them to each side bracket using two
socket head screws (C) and two washers (F). Make sure the
black foam on the handrail does not cover or interfere with
the handrail clamp mounting holes.
Attach the lower portion of the handrails to the
side rails using four socket head screws (C) and
four washers (D). Refer to the note above.
Heart rate cables protrude from the ends of both handrails. Slide
the end of each cable into its receptacle. Carefully place excess
cable inside the recessed area in the display console.
Important: The cable receptacles mirror the connectors so that
they cannot be improperly installed. Do not force a connection!
Take your time and look for the tabs on the connectors.
CAUTION: Do not place the excess cable in the handrails.
The handrail clamp fasteners can damage the cable.
Make sure the excess heart rate cables are not impeding the
function of the safety switch. Pull on the safety lanyard. If the red
STOP button depresses and you hear a clicking sound, the
safety switch is working properly.

Checking the Alignment and Adjusting the Running Belt
Proper belt alignment allows the belt to remain centered and ensures smooth
operation. Realigning the belt takes a few simple adjustments. If you are unsure
about this procedure, call Precor Customer Support. Refer to Obtaining Service.
To adjust the running belt:
CAUTION: To ensure your safety, turn OFF (O) the treadmill before making
any adjustments.
To check the alignment:
1. Locate the right belt adjustment bolt in the rear end cap of the treadmill.
(To determine left and right, stand at the rear of the treadmill and face the
display.) Make all belt adjustments on the right rear corner bolt using the
¼-inch hex key.
1. The treadmill has adjustable rear feet. Make sure that the running surface is
level before aligning or adjusting the running belt. Refer to step 17.
2. Turn the unit ON.
• If the belt is off center to the LEFT, turn the
adjusting bolt ¼ turn counterclockwise,
which moves the running belt to the right.
3. Stand beside the treadmill and press QUICKSTART.
4. If you are prompted for a password, press INCLINE ▼, SPEED ▼, SPEED ▲.
The running belt starts automatically after the 3-second countdown appears on
the display.
• If the belt tracks off center to the RIGHT,
turn the bolt ¼ turn clockwise; this moves
the belt to the left.
5. Press the SPEED ▲ key until the display shows a speed of 3 mph (5 kph).
belt should run centered along the running bed. If the belt drifts off center, you
will need to make adjustments.
Important: Do not turn the adjusting bolt
more than ¼ turn at a time. Overtightening the
bolt can damage the treadmill.
Important: If the belt needs alignment, make the adjustments immediately
after turning the treadmill OFF. Failure to do so may cause the belt to tear or
fray, which is not covered by the Precor Limited Warranty.
2. Recheck the alignment of the running belt.
7. To stop the running belt, press the red STOP button.
8. Turn the treadmill OFF.
