Some Helpful Tips:

•  For data to be saved, the workout/sport you do must be done actively for at least 3 minutes.
• Once you begin a sports model, the exercise on the watch may show two pages appearing (you’ll notice this as two small dots will show at the middle-top of the screen), you can swipe left and right to see the data found on these pages.
•  You can perform the sport either near your smartphone or away/not connected to your smartphone. Once the smartwatch comes within the Bluetooth range of your smartphone, it will automatically sync with the app and the mode will appear on your home/dashboard screen in the app.
•  Sports modes should be done one at a time. After stopping one mode, ensure that the data is synced to the app first. Then start your second sports mode. Doing multiple modes at once, without syncing to the app will cause data you have acquired to be lost.
•  The watch will alert you if the activity time is too short to record. Activities not performed for at least 3 minutes will not be saved to the app/watch.

You can view all of the sports modes you have done for the day as well as the calories burned doing each activity within the Calories card found on the main home page of the iTech Wearables App.

Wear And Care

All iTech Wearable products are meant to be worn all day and night, so it’s important to follow a few simple guidelines as you wear and care for your smartwatch.

To keep your band clean and your skin happy, we recommend the following tips:

•  Clean your band and wrist regularly – especially after intense workouts or sweating.
•  Rinse the band with water or wipe it with a small amount of rubbing alcohol. Do NOT use hand soap, dish soap, hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, or household cleaners, which could get trapped beneath the band and irritate your skin.
•  Always pat dry the band before putting it back on.

Although the iTech Gladiator 2 Smartwatch is IP67 water-resistant, it is not IP68 waterproof which means you should not submerge your smartwatch in water deeper than one meter for longer than 30 minutes. We advise you not to swim with your smartwatch. However, your iTech Gladiator 2 Smartwatch can withstand many splashes, rain, and daily activities such as washing dishes. If your smartwatch gets wet, we advise you to remove it until dry. It is not good for your skin to wear a wet band for long periods of time.
