I bought a treadmill today and one of the requirements
was
that it could display distances in km and allow you
to
enter your weight in kg.

Guys
Last year I bought a
True Fitness model 450 treadmill. As with anything sold in the USA it
registered distance run in miles. There is no adjustment switch to
convert the display.
I e-mailed the company to see if I could get the
electronics changed so it registered in km. I got a response to call
their customer service number. I did, and talked with a fellow named
Eric. He said to take out the display panel printed circuit board and
send it to him and he would replace it with a metric board.
At
no time did anyone think the request odd -- they just treated it as a service
they provided.
I did, and eight days later the metric board came back.
I put it in and it works perfectly. Each lap is now 400 m and not
1/4 mile. There was no cost except what I paid to send it there.
Their products are of top quality, and so is their customer service.
Now all I have to do is make it turn 105 kg into 75 kg.
