Activity Alerts
You can set alerts for each activity, which can help you to train toward specific goals or increase your
awareness of your environment. Some alerts are available only for specific activities. There are three types
of alerts: event alerts, range alerts, and recurring alerts.
Event alert: An event alert notifies you once. The event is a specific value. For example, you can set the watch to
alert you when you burn a specified number of calories.
Range alert: A range alert notifies you each time the watch is above or below a specified range of values. For
example, you can set the watch to alert you when your pace is above 10 minutes per mile and below 15
minutes per mile.
Recurring alert: A recurring alert notifies you each time the watch records a specified value or interval. For
example, you can set the watch to alert you every 30 minutes.
