Viewing Your SpO2 Readings in Flight

WARNING

The SpO2 readings are intended for backup information only. Always defer to applicable flight instruments for
primary awareness.

The D2 Air X10 watch has a wrist-based pulse oximeter to gauge the saturation of oxygen in your blood (SpO2).
Knowing your oxygen saturation can help you determine how your body is adjusting to high altitudes. As your
altitude increases, the level of oxygen in your blood can decrease. During a flight, the watch automatically takes
pulse oximeter readings more frequently, so you can monitor your SpO2 percentage.

TIP: You can improve the accuracy of your SpO2 readings by turning on all-day acclimation mode in the pulse
oximeter glance settings (Changing the Pulse Oximeter Tracking Mode, page 26).

1 Start a FLY activity.
2 Swipe up or down to scroll through the data screens.

Your most recent reading appears as an oxygen saturation percentage.

NOTE: If you are too active for the watch to determine your oxygen saturation, dashes appear instead of a

percentage. You should remain stationary for up to 30 seconds while the watch reads your blood oxygen

saturation.

About VO2 Max. Estimates

VO2 max. is the maximum volume of oxygen (in milliliters) you can consume per minute per kilogram of body
weight at your maximum performance. In simple terms, VO2 max. is an indication of cardiovascular strength
and should increase as your level of fitness improves.

On the watch, your VO2 max. estimate appears as a number and description. On your Garmin Connect account,
you can view additional details about your VO2 max. estimate.

Heart Rate Features 25

Pulse Oximeter

The D2 Air X10 watch has a wrist-based pulse oximeter to gauge the saturation of oxygen in your blood.
Knowing your oxygen saturation can be valuable in understanding your overall health and help you determine
how your body is adapting to altitude. Your watch gauges your blood oxygen level by shining light into the skin
and checking how much light is absorbed. This is referred to as SpO2.

On the watch, your pulse oximeter readings appear as an SpO2 percentage. On your Garmin Connect account,
you can view additional details about your pulse oximeter readings, including trends over multiple days
(Changing the Pulse Oximeter Tracking Mode, page 26). For more information on pulse oximeter accuracy, go
to garmin.com/ataccuracy.

Getting Pulse Oximeter Readings

You can manually begin a pulse oximeter reading from the pulse oximeter glance. The accuracy of the pulse
oximeter reading can vary based on your blood flow, the watch placement on your wrist, and your stillness.

NOTE: You may need to add the pulse oximeter glance to the glance loop (
1 While you are sitting or inactive, swipe up or down to view the pulse oximeter glance.
2 Select the glance to begin the reading.
3 Hold the arm wearing the watch at heart level while the watch reads your blood oxygen saturation.
4 Keep still.

The watch displays your oxygen saturation as a percentage, and a graph of your pulse oximeter readings and
heart rate values since midnight.

• To turn off automatic measurements, select On Demand.

.

NOTE: Turning on pulse oximeter tracking decreases battery life.

NOTE: Unusual sleep positions can cause abnormally low sleep-time SpO2 readings.

Customizing the Glances, page 31).

Tips for Erratic Pulse Oximeter Data

If the pulse oximeter data is erratic or does not appear, you can try these tips.

• Remain motionless while the watch reads your blood oxygen saturation.

• Wear the watch above your wrist bone. The watch should be snug but comfortable.

• Hold the arm wearing the watch at heart level while the watch reads your blood oxygen saturation.

• Use a silicone or nylon band.

• Clean and dry your arm before putting on the watch.

• Avoid wearing sunscreen, lotion, and insect repellent under the watch.

• Avoid scratching the optical sensor on the back of the watch.

• Rinse the watch with fresh water after each workout.

Activity Tracking

The activity tracking feature records your daily step count, distance traveled, intensity minutes, floors climbed,
calories burned, and sleep statistics for each recorded day. Your calories burned includes your base metabolism
plus activity calories.

The number of steps taken during the day appears on the steps glance. The step count is updated periodically.
For more information about activity tracking and fitness metric accuracy, go to

26 Activity Tracking

garmin.com/ataccuracy.

Auto Goal

Your watch creates a daily step goal automatically, based on your previous activity levels. As you move during

the day, the watch shows your progress toward your daily goal .

If you choose not to use the auto goal feature, you can set a personalized step goal on your Garmin Connect
account.

Using the Move Alert

Sitting for prolonged periods of time can trigger undesirable metabolic state changes. The move alert reminds
you to keep moving. After one hour of inactivity, a message appears, and the red bar appears on the steps
glance. Additional segments appear after every 15 minutes of inactivity. The watch also vibrates, if vibration is
turned on (System Settings, page 59).

Go for a short walk (at least a couple of minutes) to reset the move alert.

Sleep Tracking

While you are sleeping, the watch automatically detects your sleep and monitors your movement during your
normal sleep hours. You can set your normal sleep hours in the user settings on your Garmin Connect account.
Sleep statistics include total hours of sleep, sleep stages, sleep movement, and sleep score. You can view your
sleep statistics on your Garmin Connect account.

NOTE: Naps are not added to your sleep statistics. You can use do not disturb mode to turn off notifications
and alerts, with the exception of alarms (Using Do Not Disturb Mode, page 11).

Intensity Minutes

To improve your health, organizations such as the World Health Organization recommend at least 150 minutes
per week of moderate intensity activity, such as brisk walking, or 75 minutes per week of vigorous intensity
activity, such as running.

The watch monitors your activity intensity and tracks your time spent participating in moderate to vigorous
intensity activities (heart rate data is required to quantify vigorous intensity). The watch adds the amount of
moderate activity minutes with the amount of vigorous activity minutes. Your total vigorous intensity minutes
are doubled when added.

Earning Intensity Minutes

Your D2 Air X10 watch calculates intensity minutes by comparing your heart rate data to your average resting
heart rate. If heart rate is turned off, the watch calculates moderate intensity minutes by analyzing your steps
per minute.

• Start a timed activity for the most accurate calculation of intensity minutes.

• Wear your watch all day and night for the most accurate resting heart rate.

66 Troubleshooting

My music cuts out or my headphones do not stay connected

When using a D2 Air X10 watch connected to headphones using Bluetooth technology, the signal is strongest
when there is a direct line of sight between the watch and the antenna on the headphones.

• If the signal passes through your body, you may experience signal loss or your headphones may become
disconnected.

• It is recommended to wear your headphones with the antenna on the same side of your body as your D2 Air
X10 watch.

• Since headphones vary by model, you can try moving the watch to your other wrist.

history and downloaded apps and files, select Reset Default Settings.

Acquiring Satellite Signals

The watch may need a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite signals.
1 Go outdoors to an open area.

The front of the watch should be oriented toward the sky.

2 Wait while the watch locates satellites.

It may take 30 to 60 seconds to locate satellite signals.

Improving GPS Satellite Reception

• Frequently sync the watch to your Garmin account:

◦ Connect your watch to a computer using the USB cable and the Garmin Express application.
◦ Sync your watch to the Garmin Connect app using your Bluetooth enabled phone.
◦ Connect your watch to your Garmin account using a Wi‑Fi wireless network.

While connected to your Garmin account, the watch downloads several days of satellite data, allowing it to
quickly locate satellite signals.

• Take your watch outside to an open area away from tall buildings and trees.

• Remain stationary for a few minutes.

Activity Tracking

For more information about activity tracking accuracy, go to garmin.com/ataccuracy.

My step count does not seem accurate

If your step count does not seem accurate, you can try these tips.

• Wear the watch on your non-dominant wrist.

• Carry the watch in your pocket when pushing a stroller or lawn mower.

• Carry the watch in your pocket when actively using your hands or arms only.
NOTE: The watch may interpret some repetitive motions, such as washing dishes, folding laundry, or clapping

your hands, as steps.

68 Troubleshooting

The floors climbed amount does not seem accurate

Your watch uses an internal barometer to measure elevation changes as you climb floors. A floor climbed is
equal to 3 m (10 ft.).

• Avoid holding handrails or skipping steps while climbing stairs.

• In windy environments, cover the watch with your sleeve or jacket as strong gusts can cause erratic readings.
