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 
10th 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".

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 adjust-ment, 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 
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 
steps, distance, and activity time. Repeatedly 
press the red MODE button to cycle through the 
pedometer modes:

RESETTING YOUR PEDOMETER
Most people prefer to reset step and distance 
counts daily. To reset: From STEP or DISTANCE 
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.
