PE-109 Operating Instructions
1. Ready in just 3 steps ! First ensure that the battery is activated (see chapter 5) 1) Press the ‘MODE’ key until ‘STEP’ appears in the display and the time is shown 2) Press and hold the ‘RESET’ key until the top display of the number of steps is set to zero. (hold the key for at least 4 seconds) 3) Fasten the PE-109 with the clip to your belt/trouser waistband in front of your body at hip height or put it in one of your front trouser pockets.
2. Introduction Thanks to the 3-axis digital motion sensor, the PE109 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 PE109 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 PE109 as follows: - In an upright position - secured tightly by the clip on your belt or trouser waistband - position on a belt: 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 DATA MEMORY (Memory Mode) 7-day data memory (STEP) (at the bottom, instead of the time, the display shows -1 DAYS RECORD) At midnight, the PE109 automatically saves the accumulated data (Chapter 4.1 to 4.4) for the respective day. Select the day: with the RESET key (‘-1’ is yesterday, ‘-2’ the day before yesterday, etc.) Select the measurement data: with the SET key If the memory is empty, ‘zero’ is displayed. You cannot delete the memory data individually.
