Important!
If the band is loose, the pedometer will count steps, but step count accuracy may
be reduced.
If you are experiencing problems getting relatively accurate step counts
Any of the conditions below may make proper measurement impossible.
Wearing slippers, sandals, or other footwear that encourages a shuffling gait
Walking on tile, carpeting, snow, or other surface that causes a shuffling gait
Irregular walking (in a crowded location, in a line where walking stops and starts at
short intervals, etc.)
Extremely slow walking or extremely fast running
Pushing a shopping cart or baby stroller
In a location where there is a lot of vibration, or riding in a car or other vehicle
Frequent movement of the hand or arm (clapping, fanning movement, etc.)
Walking while holding hands, walking with a cane or stick, or engaging in any other
movement in which your hand and leg movements are not coordinated with each
other.

Pedometer Details
Step Count
The step counter can count from 0 to 999,999 steps. If the step count exceeds
999,999, the maximum value (999,999) remains on the display.
The step count is not displayed at the beginning of a walk in order to avoid
miscounting of non-walking movements. It appears only after you have continued
walking for about 10 seconds, with the number of steps you took during that time
added to the total.
The step count is automatically reset to zero at midnight each day.
You can also manually reset the daily step count that is displayed in the
Timekeeping Mode. Note that doing so does not reset the daily step count on the
history screen. This makes the displayed step count zero and counts steps from
there. This comes in handy when you want to count the number of steps between
two points. See "To reset today's step count" (page E-31).

Note
Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59
causes the minutes to be increased by 1.
The watch's built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month
lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to
change it except after you have the watch's battery replaced.
The day of the week changes automatically when the date changes.
While the 12-hour format is selected for timekeeping, a P (PM) indicator will appear
for times from noon to 11:59 p.m. No indicator appears for times from midnight to
11:59 a.m. With 24-hour format, time is displayed from 0:00 to 23:59, without any
P (PM) indicator.
Pedometer
The watch has a built-in 3-axis accelerometer that counts the steps you take.
You can specify a daily step goal and keep track of your step goal progress.
A Step Reminder function helps to keep you from sitting too much.
Pedometer Precautions
While the watch is on your wrist, the pedometer may detect non-step movements
and count them as steps. Also, abnormal arm movements while walking may
cause a miss count of steps.
Wearing the Watch
OK
NG
To ensure proper step count measurement,
wear the watch as shown in the illustration
nearby.
Wear the watch on your wrist, with the band
tightened securely.
Normal daily non-walking activities (cleaning, etc.)
Wearing the watch on your dominant hand
Walking for less than 10 seconds
Watch hand movement (by the hand shift function, etc.)
Power Saving
To save power, sensor operation stops automatically if there is no movement
detected by the watch and you do not perform any operation for two to three
minutes.
While you are walking, the step indicators alternately flash on the display at
one-second intervals. Both step indicators are displayed without flashing while you
are not moving, and both indicators are cleared from the display while the sensor is
stopped, in order to conserve battery power.
