Note: If an existing course profile extended beyond the cell where you stopped, it will be
discarded.

To discard changes and quit — press Hold to Reset for more than 5 seconds. This
discards the changes you made to the course profile.
Note: If you were “writing over” an existing course profile, that course is restored.

If you continue to customize the course profile for the maximum distance of 8 miles, a

To save your changes, press ENTER. To discard your changes, press STOP for more than
4 seconds. To use your custom course, refer to the instructions in
Using a Custom Course.
When you have saved or discarded your custom course changes, you can work out and use the
same course over and over by entering the associated user I.D. at the user I.D. prompt and
pressing QUICK START. The M9.25i can store two custom courses and their associated speeds
and inclines per user I.D.
Using Your Custom Course
The two custom courses (programs “8” and “9”) that are available with each user I.D., let you
preset the incline in 0.1 mile segments along a specific course that can be up to 8 miles in length.
Note: Prior to using a custom course, you must create it by following the steps found in the
previous section,
Creating Custom Courses.
To use a custom course, follow steps 1 through 5 in the previous section,
Creating Custom
Courses, and then take the following steps:
1.
At the “Use Course” prompt, press ENTER. The course profile appears in the display.
Note: The course profile appears in 0.01 mile segments which is different from the 0.1 cells
that appear in the customizing course mode. However, all incline changes made to the course
profile in the custom course mode are still intact and take effect at the distance specified.

When the end of the course profile appears, you are nearing the end of your workout
session. Once the session ends, your workout statistics are saved. The software begins an
automatic cool-down period and adds your workout statistics to the cumulative totals. For

the treadmill has completed its recalibration.
