Distance: Distance you've covered so far. The distance calculation is
l
based on your height and the steps you've taken.
To
go: Your A300 gives you options for reaching your daily activity goal. It
l
tells you how much longer you need to be active if you choose low,
medium or high intensity activities. You have one goal, but a number of
ways to achieve it. The daily activity goal can be reached at low, medium
or high intensities. In the A300, 'up' means low intensity, 'walking' means
medium intensity, and 'jogging' means high intensity. You can find more
examples for low, medium and high intensity activities at the Flow web ser-
vice and mobile app and choose the best way of reaching your goal.

INACTIVITY ALERT

It's widely known that physical activity is a major factor in maintaining health. In addition to being physically
active, it's important to avoid prolonged sitting. Sitting for long periods of time is bad for your health, even on
those days when you train and gain enough daily activity. Your A300 spots if you're being inactive for too long
during your day and this way helps you to break up your sitting to avoid the negative effects it has on your
health.
If you've been still for almost an hour, you'll get an inactivity alert -
find your own way to be active. Take a short walk, stretch, or do some other light activity. The message goes
away when you start moving or press any button. If you don't get active in five minutes, you'll get an inactivity
stamp, which you can see on the Flow app and Flow web service after syncing.
You can set the alert on or off in
The Flow app gives the same notification if it has a Bluetooth connection to your A300.
Both Flow app and Flow web service will show you how many inactivity stamps you have received. This way
you can check back on your daily routine and make changes towards a more active life.

SLEEP INFORMATION AT FLOW WEB SERVICE AND FLOW APP

A300 will track your sleep time and quality (restful / restless), if you wear it at night. You don't have to turn the
sleep mode on, the device automatically detects from your wrist movements that you're sleeping. Sleep time,

Your sleep time is the longest continuous rest time that takes place within 24 hours starting from 18:00/6pm to
next day's 18:00/6pm. Breaks shorter than one hour in your sleep don't stop sleep tracking, but they are not
taken into account in the sleep time. Breaks longer than 1 hour stop sleep time tracking.
The periods when you sleep peacefully and don't move a lot are calculated as restful sleep. The periods when
you move and change your position are calculated as restless sleep. Instead of simply summing up all the
