your previous activity levels. As you move during the day, the

device 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, Move! and the red bar

appear. Additional segments appear after every 15 minutes of

inactivity. The device also vibrates if vibration is turned on

(System Settings, page 9).

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

move alert.

Indoor Activities

The Approach S60 device can be used for training indoors, such

as running on an indoor track or using a stationary bike. GPS is

turned off for indoor activities.

When running or walking with GPS turned off, speed, distance,

and cadence are calculated using the accelerometer in the

device. The accelerometer is self-calibrating. The accuracy of

the speed, distance, and cadence data improves after a few

outdoor runs or walks using GPS.

TIP: Holding the handrails of the treadmill reduces accuracy.

You can use an optional foot pod to record pace, distance, and

cadence.

When cycling with GPS turned off, speed and distance are not

available unless you have an optional sensor that sends speed

and distance data to the device (such as a speed or cadence

sensor).

Outdoor Activities

The Approach S60 device comes preloaded with apps for

outdoor activities, such as running and biking. GPS is turned on

for outdoor activities. You can add apps using default activities,

such as cardio or rowing.

alarm to occur once or to repeat regularly.
