SETTING UP YOUR PEDOMETER
To record your distance accurately, you will need to
set your stride length.
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 indicator points to “DIST.” 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".

Attaching the Leash:
Attach the pedometer to the
leash by looping the leash through the pedometer
leash slot. Next, loop the leash through the metal
clip, then clasp the waistband of your clothing
with the pedometer belt clip. You can also use a
safety pin to fasten the leash to your clothing, loop
the leash through your belt or belt loop, or use a
badge holder.
VIEWING YOUR RESULTS
Once you put on your pedometer with the cover
closed, it will automatically begin to record your

RESETTING YOUR PEDOMETER
Most people prefer to reset step and distance daily.
To reset: From STEP, DISTANCE, or ACTIVITY TIMER
mode, press and hold the white RESET button for at
least 2 seconds.
CHANGING UNITS (English vs. Metric)
The Pedometer can display either in English units
(inches, miles, and pounds - this is the default), or in
Metric units (cm, km, and kg). To change between
display modes, push and hold the red MODE button
for 5 seconds, until you see all display indicators
momentarily come on. You can check to see which
system of units you are using by repeatedly pressing
the red MODE button until it displays either MI or KM
when showing Distance traveled.
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.

WEARING YOUR PEDOMETER
Gently slide the pedometer onto your belt or the
top edge of your pants or skirt. It should fit snugly
and level, above one knee. The strong steel clip
makes it easy.
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 pedom-
eter securely to your clothing.

3-STEP DELAY FILTER
ACCUSPLIT has added a “3 step delay” filter to this pedometer, to weed out false steps caused
by tapping the foot, sitting down, etc. The filter is set to “3 steps,” meaning that the unit will wait
to start counting steps until more than three steps have been recorded. When you are beginning
a walk, the display will not show any steps for a few seconds. After the unit has sensed four
steps, the display will register all of those steps at once, and keep counting from that point.
