Accuracy

How can i improve the speed of the gps signal reception?

Satellite signal reception quality is considerably impacted by the environment and your movement.
To facilitate reception, we recommend the following during signal detection:

1. Positioning yourself in a clearing away from buildings and trees.
2. Place your watch on a table or on the ground.

How many points per second (sampling rate) can my watch record?

Your GPS watch's sampling rate range varies from between 1 point every second and 1 point every 5 seconds. The lower the sampling rate, the greater the storage capacity. However, route mapping will be less accurate. You can adjust the frequency setting in the "Library/Product Memory" menu. The default setting is 2 seconds.

In fact you can buy the ANT+ belt, which is compatible with this device, from our Decathlon stores; this will allow you to enjoy all the practical cardio features offered by your watch.

Battery

Why is my watch not charging properly?

The sensors at the back of your watch may have become corroded due to perspiration.

Clean them with alcohol or vinegar and a cotton swab.
Also check that the clip is correctly positioned on your watch.
