Input an appropriate length for an average stride. To determine length of stride walk 10 paces and divide distance traveled by 10. CALORIES Precise calories burned calculations require taking many factors into account. The PE326CA uses body weight and the number of steps taken to give a good estimate. 1. Press CALO until the body weight is viewed on the top line of the display. 2. Insert a thin blunt object into HR / + or MIN / - to increase or decrease body weight setting (65 to 340 lbs or 30 to 150 kg)*. The unit automatically returns to clock display after 5 seconds. MOTION SENSITIVITY Follow these important procedures to adjust the Motion Sensitivity and ensure accurate readings: 1. Correctly position and attach the unit to a belt or waistband. 2. Reset step counter to zero. 3. Walk at a normal pace; take at least 100 steps. 4. Adjust sensitivity switch if walking speed changes. Repeat steps 2-4 until accurate reading is obtained. The following conditions may cause incorrect reading of steps taken: 1. Uneven walking pace, such as walking in crowded areas or on uneven floor. 2. Frequent up and down movements, such as standing up and/or sitting down; running, jumping, going up and down stairs etc. USING THE PEDOMETER VIEWING STEPS TAKEN Press CALO when the unit is in clock/calorie display or press DIST when it’s in clock/distance display. VIEWING DISTANCE TRAVELED Press DIST when the unit is in clock/calorie display. VIEWING CALORIES BURNED Press CALO when the unit is in clock/distance display. To reset the values, press RESET in any clock display. NOTE The total distance and calories burned will be cleared along with the total steps.
