POSITIONING THE PEDOMETER:

1. Clip the unit to your belt or to your waistline as close to the hip as possible. Do not be afraid to experiment
with positioning to obtain the best results for your body type.
2. Make sure the unit is placed level on your belt or waistline as shown below:
3. Test your pedometer by walking 20 steps on a hard, flat surface, and then check the pedometer display. If the
pedometer counts 18-22 steps the positioning is correct. If not, reposition the pedometer and repeat the test.
4. If you feel the distance indicated is incorrect, adjust your stride length accordingly. A longer stride length will
give you more distance over a given number of steps, and vice-versa. The inherent accuracy of a pedometer
lies in it's step count, distance is calculated by multiplying the steps taken by the stride length. If your
pedometer passes the test in Step 3, it is working correctly and you need to adjust your stride length.

ANTI-FALSING FILTER OPERATION:

1. To filter out non-step movements the unit remains in standby until 5 continuous steps are registered. On the 5
step 5 steps are added to the count, and then each step is counted. A small triangle will appear in the upper-
left corner of the display when the count is active.
2. When walking activity is paused for 2 seconds the anti-falsing filter becomes active again, until 5 more steps
are registered.
