My Tanita 3 Axes Pedometer Pd724 got wet n the alarm started to go off . I had to take the battery out to stop and every time I put the battery In the alarm starts again and I cannot do anything else help !

That's okay Dorothy ...

I won't hold your youth & in-experience against you.
(Walk a lot: Good girl!)

Tried (really) looking it up... (below) 3 axes pedometer
http://www.tanita.com/es/pd724gl/

Seems 2 B a serious brain teaser. .. but if you have the numbers... weight and stride length.. you just advance to those settings with your mode control.

The only ISSUE I can imagine: you could have your stride length... in CENTIMETERS (METRIC)... So if your stride is
30 inches... that equals 76.2 CM (centimeters).

Aaaand... if you underestimate your stride a little... It will make you feel like you accomplished more... (and who's to tell).

You go girl...

Comment me back if that didn't do it for you.

The same thing has been happening for me. I don't have a tried and tested solution, but I'm suspecting that it's when I keep the pedometer in the same pocket as my mobile phone. I'll make sure I don't do that and report back if it still resets.

TAKE THE BATTERYS OUT

My Tanita BC-532 also developed this fault. It seems to be common with a number of the models! I asked Tanita and over a number of emails this is what they said:

"not to place it in wet rooms and remove the batteries if stored for a longer time period."

When I said it was in a bathroom (isn't that where everyone keeps their scales) NOT a wet room - they said any bathroom is classed as a wetroom!
When I said how can you tell if the batteries are just about to run out (that's what seems to trigger the fault) I had no reply; and when I asked how long is a "long period of time" - 2 weeks/ 2 months (we used to use ours every 1-2 weeks) again no reply to this question.

Now out of warranty after 5 years Tanita suggested it I didn't follow either of these instructions above (in the manual, but not defined) then I only have myself to blame. They did suggest one remedy was to:

"1.Take out the batteries.

2.Make a short-circuit between (+) and (-)with a piece of wire.

3.Put the batteries back and try it out.

If that doesn't work, you simply have to discard it. "

Personally I don't think this is satisfactory and I won't buy Tanita again. Scales should last much longer. They should make any warnings clearly defined - especially based on the number of times this happens according to reports from users on internet.

It seems this is a well known fault and I would thus suggest scales are not fit for purpose over longer term. Tanita should own up to this and stop avoiding their responsibilities.

Should you not keep in the bathroom, use every few days, and replace batteries before they get too low - then these scales are great (well they were for the first 5 years!)

Measuring your own stride:

An individual's stride may vary in length. Input the appropriate length by measuring the distance of 10 steps and dividing by 10 to get your own stride length.

How to adjust:
Motion sensitivity slide switch

Attach the unit correctly and walk 100 steps. If the reading is 105 steps or more, slide the Motion sensitivity switch to the left. If the reading is 95 steps or less, slide the motion sensitivity switch to the right.

How to wear your pedometer:

Your pedometer clips easily and snugly to either side of the hip portion of your pants or shorts. For best results, keep the unit in line with the crease line of your pants.

The pedometer must be directly perpendicular to the ground. The pedometer needs to be at a 60 degree angle to the ground. Dragging your feet, walking with sandals or uneven footsteps in a crowded area can affect the accuracy.

The pedometer only works when walking, jogging, or walking up/down stairs.

How to use the panic alarm:

Pull out the panic alarm pin S7 (Panic Alarm) from the unit to trigger the alarm.

Press and hold S1 (RES) to stop sound temporarily.

Insert the panic alarm pin back into the unit to stop the alarm instantly.

Battery replacement:
Panic alarm and LED Torch battery:

Open the battery door by unscrewing the secure screw.

Flip out the exhausted battery and replace with two new *CR2016 (3V) batteries. Make sure the polarity is correct. Close battery door and fasten the screws.

I can not find the instructions, (there are sites that warn not to lose it)
So lets go with what I think I know.
Press and hold the Mode button until your display starts flashing.
Once it does, use your other two buttons for varying the display amounts.

At least, that is what i would do.

Also, my wife get sooooo mad at me, but I have every instruction manual for everything i bought somewhere in the house....
good luck and don't forget to vote!!!

Mine has same problem. Died a week ago. Put in new battery and it worked for a week. Now it is dead again.

Push both the up and down buttons at the same time. You might have to repeat this two or three times. It will tell you when the alarm is off.
