Charging the Watch

Before using your watch, you need to charge its battery using the USB charging clip and either the optional AC adapter or a computer with a USB port capable of charging external devices.
It takes approximately 2.5 to 3.5 hours to fully charge your watch, depending on your charging method.
Charge your watch in an environment with a temperature from 41 to 95 °F (5 to 35 °C).
Note: If you charge your watch in an environment outside the required temperature range, you see this screen on your watch:
14
1. Attach the USB charging clip to your watch as shown below. The charging clip should fit into the groove at the back of your watch.
Caution: Do not attach the USB charging clip to your watch if either the clip or your watch are wet or dirty. This may cause corrosion, communication failures, or other problems.
2. Connect the USB charging clip to one of the following devices:
• AC adapter: Connect the USB charging clip to the USB port on the optional AC adapter and plug
the AC adapter into an electrical outlet.
15
Caution: Only use the optional AC adapter that is compatible with your product to charge your
watch, or the watch may not charge or operate correctly.
• Computer: Connect the USB charging clip to a USB port on your computer that is capable of
charging external devices.
Note: USB charging from a computer port may not work with all computers. Do not connect the USB charging clip to a USB hub or other intermediate device.
Charging begins and you see a screen displaying the battery level on your watch.
If you connected your watch to a computer where you have already installed the Epson View Uploader software, the software starts automatically on your computer. Close the software window as necessary.
16
3. When charging is complete and the watch screen shows the battery level at 100%, you can open the clip fully and disconnect the USB charging clip from your watch.
Note: If you continue to charge the watch after the battery level reaches 100%, the watch engages an overcharge prevention feature to protect your watch.
4. Disconnect the USB cable from the AC adapter or your computer, and unplug the AC adapter if you used it.
If this is the first time you have charged your watch, you see the Language screen:
5. Press the Up or Down button to select your language and press the Enter button.

Acquiring a GPS Signal

To ensure the accuracy of the measurements taken by your watch, you must position yourself to acquire a strong GPS signal. GPS positioning allows your watch to receive a GPS signal and timing information so it can correctly track your routes, distance, pace, and other workout and activity data.
For increased GPS accuracy, wait at least 15 minutes before starting your workout. You only need to perform this extended GPS calibration the first time you use the watch or if you do not use it for a few months.
Note: To reduce the time it takes to locate the GPS signal, you can use the AGPS feature in the Epson View app on your smartphone. If you keep your watch connected to your smartphone, your watch automatically downloads GPS updates once an hour.
24
When positioning yourself to acquire a GPS signal, avoid the following environments:
• Inside buildings or rooms, or underground areas or tunnels
• Near high-voltage wires, television towers, tall buildings, tall trees, or overhead electrical wires for
trains or buses
• Locations with concentrated electronic interference, such as construction sites and heavy traffic
• Under water or floating on water
If you have issues acquiring a signal, move into as open an area as possible. If you still cannot acquire a signal, select Skip on the GPS screen to start your workout. Distance traveled will be estimated based on your stride until the GPS signal is fully acquired.
