SETTING UP YOUR PEDOMETER
To record your distance and calories accurately,
you will need to set your stride length and body
weight.
Finding Your Stride Length: Your stride length is the
length of one of your steps, measured from “toe to
toe.” To measure, walk 10 steps with your normal
stride and measure the TOTAL DISTANCE from the
toe of your starting step to the toe of your 10
th
step
(see diagram below). Divide the TOTAL DISTANCE
by 10, and multiply the decimal portion by 12 to find
your stride length in feet and inches. Example: If
you walk 23 feet in 10 steps, your stride length is
2.3 feet. Multiply 0.3 x 12 = 4. Your stride length is 2
feet, 4 inches.
Setting Your Stride Length: Repeatedly press the red
MODE button until “mi” appears. Press the blue SET
button once to enter setting mode. Display will shift
to show stride, in feet and inches. Press and hold
down the blue SET button to increase stride length.
Press the red MODE button to exit setting mode.
Note: Pressing the white RESET button resets
stride length to 2' 0".
Setting Your Weight: Repeatedly press the red
MODE button until “kcal” appears. Press the blue
SET button once to enter setting mode, then press
and hold the blue SET button to increase weight
(in pounds). Press the red MODE button to exit
setting mode.
Note: Pressing the white RESET button resets
weight to 120 lbs.
Setting the Clock: Repeatedly press the red MODE
button until “AM” or “PM” appears. Press the
white RESET button. The dash will stop flashing.
Press and hold down the red MODE button until
the correct hour is displayed; release button. Press
and hold down the blue SET button until the correct
minutes are displayed; release button. Press the
white RESET button to exit setting mode. The dash
will begin flashing. The clock is now set.
Adjusting your Pedometer’s Measurement
Sensitivity AE1700 pedometers are highly
accurate step counters. However, some walkers
may find that their step counts tend to be a bit too
high, or too low. All AE1700 models come with a
sensitivity adjustment, to help account for individual
differences. The adjustment switch has three
positions: “+,” “-,” and center. The adjustment
switch is located on the bottom of the pedometer, on
the right-hand side when looking from the front.
Adjustment Procedure: Take 100 steps, then check
STEPS display to see how many steps were actually
counted. Repeat once to make sure results are
about the same. If the pedometer counts fewer
steps than you actually walked, slide the sensitivity
adjustment towards the “+” icon. This will increase
recorded steps by about 10%. If the pedometer
counts more steps than you actually walked, slide
the sensitivity adjustment towards the “-” icon. This
will decrease recorded steps by about 10%.
WEARING YOUR PEDOMETER
While gently holding the belt clip open, slide the
pedometer onto your belt or the top edge of your
pants or skirt. It should fit snugly and level, above
one knee.
Note: The pedometer should be as vertical as
possible. Walkers with larger stomachs may find it
helpful to wear the pedometer farther back on the
body, toward one hip.
The cover must be closed for the pedometer to
work. To avoid losing or dropping your pedometer,
use the included leash and clip to fasten the
pedometer securely to your clothing.

Attaching the Leash: Attach the pedometer to the

clip. Finally, clasp the waistband of your clothing
with the metal clip. You can also use a safety pin
to fasten the leash to your clothing, loop the leash

VIEWING YOUR RESULTS
Once you put on your pedometer with the cover
closed, it will automatically begin to record your
steps, distance, calories burned, and activity time.
Repeatedly press the red MODE button to cycle
through the pedometer modes:
STEP → DISTANCE → CALORIE → CLOCK →
ACTIVITY TIMER → STEP
RESETTING YOUR PEDOMETER
Most people prefer to reset step, distance, and
calorie counts daily. To reset: From STEP, DISTANCE,
or CALORIE mode, press and hold the white RESET
button for at least 2 seconds.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
When the display starts to dim or goes blank, it is
time to replace the battery. Your pedometer uses
one Type L1142 (LR43) 1.5 volt silver oxide battery.
To replace:
1. Insert a coin into the slot on the front of the
case, and twist counterclockwise to loosen
the battery door.
2. Remove battery door and take out the old
battery. Replace it with a new battery. The
battery’s positive (+) terminal should be
FACE UP while you put it into the pedometer.
3. Put the battery door back on and twist the
coin clockwise to tighten.
