BASIC OPERATION
BATTERY CHARGE (3X, 5X ONLY)
The Stepper saves its battery charge by moving into a shutdown mode whenever
STEP FASTER
appears on the display. If the user
does not maintain a step rate above 35 steps per minute, then a 30-second shutdown process begins.
When the battery voltage is low,
LOW BATTERY
appears on the display if the unit is moving into the shutdown mode. The following
situation is the time to recharge the battery:
• If no one has used the unit for an extended period of time, the battery may need recharging.
• The unit continues to function with a low battery; however, user and program information is lost once the user stops.
If the battery must be recharged, use the optional power adapter charging unit. The charger should be connected to the Stepper
for a minimum of eight hours to ensure a thorough charge. After a completion of charge, the battery light turns from red into green
(see illustration). If
LOW BATTERY
still appears on the display after a full charge, the battery could be extinct. Please check with an
authorized service technician for replacing the battery.
CAUTION
: The battery stored inside the unit contains hazardous materials to the environment. Proper disposal of the battery is
required by the local law.
