Setup

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove the pedometer from its packaging.
2. Battery: The pedometer is equipped with a non-replaceable Lithium-Ion battery and comes pre-installed. No user battery installation is required.
3. Initial Activation: The device should be ready for use upon removal from packaging. If the display is off, press the "MODE" button to activate it.
4. Attachment: The pedometer features a clip for secure attachment.
   • For optimal accuracy, clip the pedometer firmly to your waistband, belt, or the laces of your sneaker. Ensure it is positioned vertically and does not swing excessively.
   • Avoid placing the pedometer in loose pockets or bags, as this may affect step count accuracy.

Operating Instructions

The pedometer features a simple interface with two main buttons: "RESET" and "MODE".

• Display Modes: Press the MODE button to cycle through the different display modes:
  • Steps: Displays the total number of steps taken.
  • Calories (Cals): Shows an estimate of calories burned.
  • Distance (Km/Mile): Displays the distance walked, which can be in Kilometers (Km) or Miles (Mile).
• Resetting Data: To clear all accumulated data (steps, calories, distance) and start a new tracking session, press and hold the RESET button until the display clears to zero. This is useful for tracking specific workouts or daily totals.
• Unit Selection (Km/Mile): The device may allow selection between Kilometers and Miles for distance tracking. Refer to the display when in distance mode; if a unit is not explicitly shown, it typically defaults to one unit (e.g., Kilometers as noted in some user feedback).

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the pedometer with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.
• Storage: Store the pedometer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.
• Battery Care: As the battery is non-replaceable, ensure the device is not exposed to conditions that could damage the battery, such as extreme heat or physical impact.

Troubleshooting

• Pedometer Not Counting Steps:
  • Ensure the pedometer is securely clipped to your waistband, belt, or shoe laces and is positioned vertically. Loose attachment can lead to inaccurate readings.
  • Verify that the device is not in a "sleep" mode or has not been accidentally reset. Press the "MODE" button to check the display.
• Inaccurate Step Count:
  • The pedometer's accuracy can be affected by its placement. Experiment with different secure locations (waistband, shoe) to find the most consistent reading for your gait.
  • Sudden, jerky movements or very slow shuffling might not be registered accurately.
• Display Shows Zero or Resets Unexpectedly:
  • Accidental pressing of the "RESET" button can clear data. Be mindful of button presses during activity.
  • If the device consistently resets without interaction, it might indicate a malfunction. Refer to the Warranty and Support section.
• Display is Blank:
  • Press the "MODE" button to wake the device.
  • If the display remains blank, the battery may be depleted. As the battery is non-replaceable, contact support if the device is still under warranty.
