STRIDE LENGTH MEASUREMENT  
Measure your stride length before setting the pedometer.  
How to measure your stride length  
1. Walk 10 steps with your normal  
stride as illustrated below.  
2. Measure the distance from START to END in inches.  
3. Calculate your stride length by dividing the total distance by  
10.  
Example:  
Total distance = 320''  
320 ÷ 10 = 32 inches (2 feet 8 inches)  
Conversion Chart  
12 inches = 1 foot  
24 inches = 2 feet  
36 inches = 3 feet  
48 inches = 4 feet

Calories  
By measuring the intensity of your activity, the unit can calculate the  
amount of calories burned.  
Aerobic steps  
Aerobic steps are the physical exercise that helps us stay healthy.  
Aerobic steps are counted separately when walking more than 60 steps  
per minute and more than 10 minutes successively. If a rest of less than  
1 minute is taken after a continuous walk of more than 10 minutes, this  
will be regarded as part of “a continuous walk”.  
Pitch  
The average number of Aerobic steps per minute is displayed. The  
faster you walk, the more calories you will burn.  
The battery saving mode  
After 5 minutes with no button being pressed, the display will  
automatically turn off. However, the unit continues counting steps. This  
mode extends the battery life.
