automatically.

My step count does not seem accurate

• Wear the device on your non-dominant wrist.
• Carry the device in your pocket when pushing a stroller or lawn mower.
• Carry the device in your pocket when actively using your hands or arms only.
NOTE: The device may interpret some repetitive motions, such as washing dishes, folding laundry, or
clapping your hands, as steps.

The floors climbed amount does not seem accurate

Your device uses an internal barometer to measure elevation changes as you climb floors. A floor climbed is
equal to 3 m (10 ft.).
• Locate the small barometer holes on the back of the device, near the charging contacts, and clean the area
around the charging contacts.
The barometer performance may be affected if the barometer holes are obstructed. You can rinse the device
with water to clean the area.
After cleaning, allow the device to dry completely.
• Avoid holding handrails or skipping steps while climbing stairs.
• In windy environments, cover the device with your sleeve or jacket as strong gusts can cause erratic
readings.
