User Manual

If you want real-time guidance, start the recommended excercise as you would a normal
recording, see Recording an exercise.
NOTE: Today's planned activity is also visible when pressing the middle button in the
watch face view.
When exercising according to a planned exercise, you will see a green progress bar and
percentage of your progress. The goal is estimated based on planned intensity and duration.
When you exercise within the planned intensity (based on your heart rate), you should reach
the goal around the planned duration. Higher exercise intensity will get you to the goal faster.
Similarly a lower intensity will take longer.
4.5. Autopause
Autopause pauses the recording of your exercise when your speed is less than 2 km/h (1.2
mph). When your speed increases to more than 3 km/h (1.9 mph), the recording continues
automatically.
You can turn autopause on/o for each sport mode from the sport mode settings in the watch
before you start your exercise recording.
If autopause is on during a recording, a pop-up
notifies you when the recording is paused
automatically.
Press the middle button to see and switch between the current distance, HR, time, battery
level.
You can let the recording resume automatically when you start moving again, or manually
resume from the pop-up screen by pressing the upper right button.
4.6. Backlight
The backlight has two modes: automatic and toggle. In automatic mode, the backlight comes
on with any button press. In toggle mode, you turn the backlight on by keeping the upper left
button pressed. The backlight stays on until you keep the upper left button pressed again.
By default, the backlight is in automatic mode. You can change the backlight mode from the
settings under General » Backlight.
