Setting the pedometer
To use the distance calculator function, you first need to set your stride
length. The more accurate your stride length is, the more reliable the
distance calculation will be. To do this:
- Count the number of steps you take (NP) to cover a known distance (L),
10 or 20 metres for example.
- Divide this distance (L) by the number of steps (NP) to calculate your
stride length: Stride length (LP) = L/NP. For example: If you take 13
steps to cover 10 metres (1000cm), your stride length (1000/13) =
75cm. The device has an automatic walking/running mode. It
automatically detects your stride type and adapts its calculations
accordingly. It is therefore necessary to set a walking stride length,
symbolised by a picture of a walker on the right of the screen, and a
running stride length (symbolised by a picture of a runner). To calculate
calories expended, you need to enter your weight.

NB: When setting the device, if no operation is made for 30 seconds,
the pedometer automatically exits setting mode.
NB: When one system of units is selected in one of the modes, it is
then applied to the other modes.
Example: If stride length is set in cm, then the distance covered is
displayed in km.
