(hold the key for at least 4 seconds) 3) If possible, position the PE-DRO upright on your body at hip height. -> and off you go From the display, you can now see the number of steps. For more information on the device, please read through the instructions for use in their entirety.
2. Introduction Thanks to the 3-axis digital motion sensor, the PE-DRO pedometer measures in all situations. This digital pedometer is a highly accurate step counter for your personal step monitoring when walking or running. It offers additional features that are free for you to use, but are not mandatory. The main idea behind a pedometer is to make you aware of how many steps you make a day and to motivate you into additional healthy movement behaviour.
3. How to wear the pedometer correctly The PE-DRO is equipped with a 3D digital movement detector that measures every movement, also your steps, disregarding the position of the device. Because every person moves a bit differently, we recommend wearing the PE101S as follows: - In the extension of the trouser crease, approximately in the middle between the hip bone and the middle of the body.
4. Set a function (MODE) Press the ‘MODE’ key repeatedly until you have reached the desired function.
Measuring step length To determine your step length, proceed as follows: - Walking: walk 10 steps as you normally would, then measure the distance covered and divide it by ten. Example: You measure 6.2 metres. 6.2m / 10 (number of steps) = 0.62m (input step length WALK: 62cm). - Jogging: here, we recommend that you jog at least 50 steps and then use the distance covered in the calculation. Step counter As soon as you start to walk (see “Important” in Chapter 3!), the steps you take are added and displayed.
4.5 The function KCAL Kcal burned The calories burned during the actual measurement. Please note: 100g of chocolate are the equivalent of approx. 500 kcal! This function is reset together with the daily step counter (STEP). 4.6 The function ACTIVITY TIMER (MIN) Movement timer – measurement of time in minutes when walking This timer shows for how long you have been active, i.e. the timer starts as soon as the step counter displays a movement.
