Charging

This watch is charged using a magnetic charging base. Please use the standard charging base. Align the charging port on the back of the watch with the metal contacts on the charging base, then wait until the charging level indicator appears on the watch screen.

Notes:
Please use the charging base provided with the watch. Ensure that the charging base is dry before charging.
Use a charger with the rated output current of 1A or above to charge your watch.

Wearing and replacing the watch strap

Do not wear the watch too tightly or loosely. Ensure that you both feel comfortable and that the sensor can work properly.

When measuring SpO2, avoid wearing the watch on the wrist joint, maintain a comfortable (appropriately tight) fit between the watch and the skin of your wrist, and keep your arm still throughout the measurement process. When affected by external factors (such as arm sag, arm sway, arm hair, and tattoo), measurement results may be inaccurate or the measurement may fail with no output.
You can tighten the watch strap during the workout and loosen it afterwards. Tighten the strap appropriately if your watch sways on your wrist or fails to output data.
To assemble and disassemble the strap, see the following figure.

Note:
Once the strap is attached, pull the strap using appropriate force to ensure secure attachment.
Avoid contact with liquid, as the leather strap is not waterproof. Switch to a fluororubber strap or a silicone if you cannot avoid such contact, for example, when you are swimming.

Workout

Workout
The watch supports 12 workout modes, including outdoor running, walking, outdoor cycling, treadmill, indoor cycling, open water swimming, pool swimming, elliptical, climbing, trail running, skiing, and free training.

Wake up the watch, press the side button to go to the app list, select Workout, and tap the workout mode you desire. Then tap GO on the workout preparation page to start recording workout data.

Workout GPS positioning

If you select Outdoor Sports, wait until GPS positioning is successful on the Workout Preparation screen. Then, tap GO to begin the workout. This allows the watch to record complete workout data and prevents data inaccuracy due to workout tracking loss.

Positioning guide:

1. If you are prompted to update the Assisted GPS (AGPS) after you select a workout, open the Zepp app on your phone and connect it to your watch to update AGPS. Then, select a workout again. This reduces the time spent searching for signal and avoids search failure.
2. During the positioning process, the GPS signal icon keeps flashing. An open area can offer you faster positioning for better GPS signal, as nearby buildings may block and weaken the signal, extending the positioning time and even causing positioning failure.
3. After successful positioning, the GO button is highlighted. The GPS signal icon shows the current GPS signal strength.

AGPS is a kind of GPS satellite orbit information which helps the watch accelerate the GPS positioning process.

Activities and health

PAI
PAI is used to measure a person’s physiological activity and reflect overall physical condition. It is calculated based on a person’s BPM, the intensity of daily activities, and physiological data.
By maintaining a certain intensity of daily activities or workouts, you can obtain your PAI value. According to the results of the HUNT Fitness Study*, maintaining a PAI above 100 helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and increase life expectancy.

For more information, open the Zepp app and go to PAI > PAI Q&A.

*The HUNT Fitness Study is a sub-project of the HUNT study, led by Professor Ulrik Wisloff at the School of Medicine, Norwegian University of Science and Technology. It has lasted over 35 years and involved more than 230,000 participants.

Activity goal

The watch automatically records your activity data, including steps, KCAL, standing events, and distance. It also records the duration that BPM is maintained within or above the fat-burning range as an index of fat-burning time.

1. Your daily activity goal consists of three parts, including Move ring (with target steps or KCAL), Fat burning ring, and Stand ring.
2. The watch vibrates when you achieve a daily goal.

Idle alerts

To encourage you to have a certain amount of activity every hour when you are awake and reduce the harm caused by sitting for too long, the watch monitors your activity as you wear it.
If no activities are detected for more than one minute at the 50th minute of the current hour and you are wearing the watch correctly, the watch vibrates to remind you to work out. After receiving an idle alert, if you complete activities before the next hour arrives, the stand-up target of the current hour can still be achieved.

Enabling idle alerts:
Keep the watch connected to your phone, open the Zepp app, and go to Profile > Amazfit GTS 2e > Notifications and Alerts > Idle Alerts to enable the feature

BPM
BPM is an important indicator of physical condition. Highly-frequent BPM measurement helps capture more BPM changes and provide a reference for a healthy lifestyle.

BPM alerts
You can enable the BPM alert feature when you set all day BPM measurement mode with a measuring frequency of less than 10 minutes.

The watch vibrates when the measured BPM is greater than the predefined value and you have not done any detectable activity for the past 10 minutes.

All day BPM monitoring

1. Keep the watch connected to your phone, open the Zepp app, and go to Profile > Amazfit GTS 2e > Health Monitoring to enable all day BPM monitoring and set the measuring frequency. Then, the watch automatically measures your BPM at the predefined frequency and records BPM changes all day.
2. BPM changes are more intense when you are working out. Enable the activity detection feature to allow the watch to automatically increase measuring frequency when it detects an activity so that more BPM changes can be recorded.
3. The watch’s BPM app allows you to view the BPM curve and BPM distribution throughout the day.

Manual measurement
