inactivity. To activate the screen, press any button.
The screen also goes to sleep (blank) after a period of inactivity. Any movement turns the

whether the inactive display shows any information (Always-on display), and whether the
display activates when you raise and turn your wrist (Raise to wake).
The display features can be adjusted from the settings under General > Display.
The Brightness setting determines the overall intensity of display brightness; Low, Medium
•
or High.
The Always-on display setting determines if the inactive display is blank or shows
•
information, for example, the time. Always-on display can be toggled to on or off:
On: The display shows certain information all the time.
•
Off: When the display is inactive, the screen is bank.
•
•
The Raise to wake feature activates the display when raising your wrist to look at the
watch. The three options for Raise to wake are:
High: Raising your wrist activates high display brightness.
•
Low: Raising your wrist activates low display brightness.
•
Off: Raising your wrist does nothing.
•
CAUTION: Prolonged use of the high brightness display reduces battery life and may
cause screen burn-in. Avoid using high brightness for extended period to lengthen display
lifetime.
