3.1. Activity monitoring
Your watch keeps track of your overall level of activity throughout the day. This is an important
factor whether you just aim to be fit and healthy or you are training for an upcoming
competition.
It is good to be active, but when training hard, you need to have proper rest days with low
activity.
The activity counter automatically resets at midnight every day. At the end of the week
(Sunday), the watch provides a summary of your activity showing your average for the week
and daily totals.
From the watch face display, swipe up or press the lower button to see your total steps for the
day.
Your watch counts steps using an accelerometer. The total step count accumulates 24/7, also
while recording training sessions and other activities. However, with some specific sports,
such as swimming and cycling, steps are not counted.
In addition to steps, you can tap on the display to see estimated calories for the day.
The large number in the center of the display is the estimated amount of active calories you
have burned so far. Below this you see the total calories burned. The total includes both
active calories and your Basal Metabolic Rate (see below).
The ring in both displays indicates how close you are to your daily activity goals. These
targets can be adjust to your personal preferences (see below)
You can also check your activity over the last seven days with a swipe to the right. Tap the
screen or press the middle button to switch between steps and calories.
Activity goals
You can adjust your daily goals for both steps and calories. While in the activity display, tap
and hold your finger on the screen or keep the middle button pressed to open the activity
goal settings.
