SETTINGS
4. Repeat steps (1) to (2) to set the weight.
5. Repeat steps (1) to (2) to set the height.
6. Repeat steps (1) to (2) to set the stride
length.
NOTES:
• The initial stride length value that blinks
on the display is an estimated stride length
calculated from your height setting.
Set the actual stride length based on the
type of walking you will do and your own
physique.
• To measure the correct average stride
length, divide the total length of ten steps
you walked by the number of steps (e. g.
7.1 meter divided by 10 steps = 71 cm).
This completes the setup.

1. Press the SET button on the back of
the unit with a thin, sturdy, stick that
will not break easily.
The hour flashes on the display.
2. Follow the procedure from step 2 on
page 6, “SETTING THE TIME,
WEIGHT, HEIGHT AND STRIDE
LENGTH”.
NOTES:
• This does not delete measurement values
stored on the unit, including any stored
today.
• If no settings are made for more than 5
minutes, the display will revert to the
current step count display.
