The battery life is estimated
at 2 years, depending on the frequency of use. A 1.5 V
battery is permanently fitted in the pedometer. If the intensity of the display reduces
or no display appears at all, have the battery changed by a specialist. For service
contact see “warranty section”. Please call customer service prior to sending the unit
for shipping details and terms and conditions for the battery change.
7. Changing the Measuring Unit
On delivery, your pedometer is set to the measuring units pounds and inches. This
default setting can be changed to metric units (cm, Kg). Simply follow these steps to
make the change: Go to Step counter mode. Press and hold the SET button until the
display flashes a “0” digit.
NOTE:
Changing between the units, will clear all of your pedometer’s data and set-
tings. If the default setting for metric/imperial has changed, the markings on the
display for distance travelled (Mi), Weight (Lb) and Step (inch) will be incorrect. For
example the LCD display shows 30 cm but the indicator marking shows “inch”. The
user has to bear this in mind when making the imperial/metric change.
