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 (1740, 1790 only): 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 (1740, 1790 only): 
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". 
Setting Your Weight (1790 only): Repeatedly press 
the red MODE button until “kcal” appears. Press 
the blue SET button once to enter setting mode, 
then press and hold the blue SET button to increase 
weight (in pounds). Press the red MODE button to 
exit setting mode. 
Note: Pressing the white RESET button resets 
weight to 120 lbs.
Setting the Clock (1790 only): Repeatedly press 
the red MODE button until “AM” or “PM” appears. 
Press the white RESET button. The dash will stop 
flashing. Press and hold down the red MODE button 
until the correct hour is displayed; release button. 
Press and hold down the blue SET button until the 
correct minutes are displayed; release button. 
Press the white RESET button to exit setting mode. 
The dash will begin flashing. The clock is now set.
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.

VIEWING YOUR RESULTS

red MODE button to cycle through the pedometer

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