During setup in TomTom Sports Connect, the TomTom Sports website opens so you can create an account or sign in.

On the TomTom Sports website you'll be able to sync and view your activities, stats and progress.

You should connect your watch to your computer regularly to charge it, to download QuickGPSfix information, which helps your watch to find your location quickly, and to get the latest software updates.

The TomTom Sports mobile app lets you upload and analyse your activities and see your stats on the go.

Download the app and follow the on-screen instructions.

Using your watch

Press the button to go up, down, left or right to other screens on your watch.

• Press LEFT – to open the Activity Tracking menu.
• Press DOWN – to open the Settings menu.
• Press RIGHT – to open the Activities menu.
• Press UP – to enter the pairing mode for Bluetooth® headphones. *
• Cover the screen with your palm briefly to turn on the back light.

Your watch may have an integrated heart rate monitor which can help you train more efficiently.

If your watch doesn’t have an integrated heart rate monitor, you can buy an external heart rate sensor to record the same information.

To get the best performance from the heart rate monitor in your watch, follow these tips:

• Wear the watch face on top of your wrist and the bottom of the watch flat against your skin.
• Move the watch up your arm above your wrist bone.
• Close your strap so that it is tight to your arm without being uncomfortable.
• You get the most accurate results from the heart rate monitor when you warm up before starting your activity.

The heart rate sensor cannot measure your heart rate while swimming.
