Indoor Activities
The Instinct device can be used for training indoors, such as
running on an indoor track or using a stationary bike or indoor
trainer. GPS is turned off for indoor activities (Activities and App
Settings, page 17).
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.
Calibrating the Treadmill Distance
To record more accurate distances for your treadmill runs, you
can calibrate the treadmill distance after you run at least 1.5 km
(1 mi.) on a treadmill. If you use different treadmills, you can
manually calibrate the treadmill distance on each treadmill or
after each run.
1
Start a treadmill activity (Starting an Activity, page 2).
2
Run on the treadmill until your Instinct Solar device records at
least 1.5 km (1 mi.).
3
After you complete your run, press GPS.
4
Select an option:
• To calibrate the treadmill distance the first time, select
Save.
The device prompts you to complete the treadmill
calibration.
• To manually calibrate the treadmill distance after the first-
time calibration, select Calibrate & Save > Yes.
5
Check the treadmill display for the distance traveled, and
enter the distance on your device.
Recording a Strength Training Activity
You can record sets during a strength training activity. A set is
multiple repetitions (reps) of a single move.

From the watch face, press GPS.
2
Select Strength.
The first time you record a strength training activity, you must
select which wrist your watch is on.
3
Press GPS to start the set timer.
4
Start your first set.
The device counts your reps. Your rep count appears when
you complete at least four reps.
TIP: The device can only count reps of a single move for
each set. When you want to change moves, you should finish
the set and start a new one.
5
Press BACK to finish the set.
The watch displays the total reps for the set. After several
seconds, the rest timer appears.
6
If necessary, press DOWN, and edit the number of reps.
TIP: You can also add the weight used for the set.

set.

complete.

Outdoor Activities
The Instinct device comes preloaded with outdoor activities,
such as running and cycling. GPS is turned on for outdoor
activities. You can add new activities based on default activities,
such as walking or rowing. You can also add custom activities to
your device (Creating a Custom Activity, page 3).
Viewing Your Ski Runs
Your device records the details of each downhill skiing or
snowboarding run using the auto run feature. This feature is
turned on by default for downhill skiing and snowboarding. It
automatically records new ski runs based on your movement.
The timer pauses when you stop moving downhill and when you
are on a chairlift. The timer remains paused during the chairlift
ride. You can start moving downhill to restart the timer. You can
view run details from the paused screen or while the timer is
running.
