Device Information About the AMOLED Display

By default, the watch settings are optimized for battery life and performance. Image persistence, or pixel “burnin,” is normal behavior for AMOLED devices. To extend the display life, you should avoid displaying static images at high brightness levels for long time periods. To minimize burn-in, the display dims after the selected timeout. You can turn your wrist toward your body, tap the touchscreen, or press a button to wake the watch.

Wearing the Watch

**CAUTION**
Some users may experience skin irritation after prolonged use of the watch, especially if the user has sensitive skin or allergies. If you notice any skin irritation, remove the watch and give your skin time to heal. To help prevent skin irritation, ensure the watch is clean and dry, and do not overtighten the watch on your wrist.
For more information, go to garmin.com/fitandcare.

Wear the watch above your wrist bone.
NOTE: The watch should be snug but comfortable. For more accurate heart rate readings, the watch should not shift while running or exercising. For pulse oximeter readings, you should remain motionless.
