Accusplit AE1740 Series Instructions Manual

SETTING UP YOUR PEDOMETERTo record your distance and calories accurately,you will need to set your stride length and bodyweight.Finding Your Stride Length: Your stride length isthe length of one of your steps, measured from“toe to toe.” To measure, walk 10 steps with yournormal stride and measure the TOTAL DISTANCEfrom the toe of your starting step to the toe of your10th step (see diagram below). Divide the TOTALDISTANCE by 10, and multiply the decimal portionby 12 to find your stride length in feet and inches.Example: If you walk 23 feet in 10 steps, yourstride length is 2.3 feet. Multiply 0.3 x 12 = 4. Yourstride length is 2 feet, 4 inches.Setting Your Stride Length: Repeatedly pressthe red MODE button until “mi” appears. Pressthe blue SET button once to enter setting mode.Display will shift to show stride, in feet andinches. Press and hold down the blue SET buttonto increase stride length. Press the red MODEbutton to exit setting mode.Note: Pressing the white RESET button resetsstride length to 2' 0"..Adjusting your Pedometer’s MeasurementSensitivity AE1700 pedometers are highlyaccurate step counters. However, some walkersmay find that their step counts tend to be a bittoo high, or too low. All AE1700 models comewith a sensitivity adjust-ment, to help accountfor individual differences. The adjustment switchhas three positions: “+,” “-,” and center. Theadjustment switch is located on the bottom of thepedometer, on the right-hand side when lookingfrom the front.Adjustment Procedure: Take 100 steps, thencheck STEPS display to see how many stepswere actually counted. Repeat once to makesure results are about the same. If the pedometercounts fewer steps than you actually walked,slide the sensitivity adjustment towards the “+”icon. This will increase recorded steps by about10%. If the pedometer counts more steps than youactually walked, slide the sensitivity adjustmenttowards the “-” icon. This will decrease recordedsteps by about 10%.WEARING YOUR PEDOMETERWhile gently holding the belt clip open, slide thepedometer onto your belt or the top edge of yourpants or skirt. It should fit snugly and level, aboveone knee.Note: The pedometer should be as vertical aspossible. Walkers with larger stomachs may find ithelpful to wear the pedometer farther back on thebody, toward one hip. The cover must be closed forthe pedometer to work. To avoid losing or droppingyour pedometer, use the included leash and clip tofasten the pedometer securely to your clothing.Attaching the Leash: Attach the pedometer to theleash by looping the leash through the pedometerleash slot. Next, loop the leash through the metalclip. Finally, clasp the waistband of your clothingwith the metal clip.
