Calibrating the Treadmill Distance
To record more accurate distances for your treadmill runs, you can calibrate the treadmill distance after you run
at least 1.5 km (1 mi.) on a treadmill. If you use different treadmills, you can manually update the calibration
each time you change treadmills.
1 Start a treadmill activity (Starting an Activity, page 6), and run at least 1.5 km (1 mi.) on the treadmill.
2 After you complete your run, select STOP.
3 Select an option:
To calibrate the treadmill distance the first time, select Save.
The device prompts you to complete the treadmill calibration.
To manually calibrate the treadmill distance after the first-time calibration, select Calibrate & Save > Yes.
4 Check the treadmill display for the distance traveled, and enter the distance on your device.
Recording a Strength Training Activity
You can record sets during a strength training activity. A set is multiple repetitions (reps) of a single move.
1 From the watch face, select START > Strength.
The first time you record a strength training activity, you must select which wrist your watch is on.
2 Select START to start the set timer.
3 Start your first set.
The device counts your reps. Your rep count appears when you complete at least four reps.
TIP: The device can only count reps of a single move for each set. When you want to change moves, you
should finish the set and start a new one.
4 Select to finish the set.
The watch displays the total reps for the set. After several seconds, the rest timer appears.
5 If necessary, edit the number of reps.
TIP: You can also add the weight used for the set.
6 When you are done resting, select to start your next set.
7 Repeat steps 3-6 for each strength training set until your activity is complete.
8 After your last set, select START > Stop Workout to stop the set timer.
9 Select Save.
