3.2 Initial Power-On and Settings

Upon battery installation, the pedometer will automatically power on. The device makes a sound when it starts working; this is normal. No initial programming is required to begin tracking steps. The pedometer is designed for immediate use.

4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Wearing the Pedometer for Accurate Tracking

For the most accurate readings, it is highly recommended to clip the pedometer onto your waistband. Ensure the bottom of the pedometer is straight and facing the ground. If the unit is worn upside down or with the bottom facing upwards, step counting accuracy may be compromised.
