Note: Tap on the right or left side of the touch ring in the clock screen to see your battery status. Pairing and personalizing the Philips health watch The device is equipped with Bluetooth®. You can sync your personal health data to iOS® and Android™ smartphones and tablets using Bluetooth wireless technology. Download the Philips HealthSuite health app from the App Store or Google Play. Use the search term 'Philips HealthSuite health'. The app is available for iOS® 8.0+ and Android™ 4.4.2+ operating systems. It is very important that you provide the right profile data in the app to enable accurate measurements. 1 Place the health watch in the charging cradle and charge the device. 2 Download the Philips HealthSuite health app on your mobile device. 3 Open the app and the setup wizard will guide you through the steps to create a user profile. In the page 'Add a device' select the Health watch from the list of devices. 4 Tap the '>' icon on the watch to enable pairing mode. 5 When connected via Bluetooth, the app will show a pop-up asking you to pair. 6 Make sure the app is active and Bluetooth is enabled when pairing is in progress. -- Keep the mobile device and the health watch within syncing range (no more than 6 feet / 2 meters from each other, in the same room). -- Do not close the app and do not turn Bluetooth off while pairing is in progress. When the health watch is successfully paired with your mobile device, the firmware of the watch will be updated to match the local language, time, profile settings and the latest features. The watch can now automatically sync your personal health data to your mobile device via Bluetooth. Pairing the health watch to your mobile device is only necessary once, unless you want to pair to another smartphone. If you already have another Philips health connected device, go to the settings of the app and add a new device. Tip: If the pairing connection is lost and you want to pair the same phone again, see chapter 'Troubleshooting' for more information. Sync and store personal health data in the app Your personal health data is stored in Philips' cloud-based platform and displayed in the Philips HealthSuite health app. Only when the health app is active (or active in the background) and Bluetooth is enabled on your smartphone, your personal health data can be synchronized. 1 Open the Philips HealthSuite health app and activate Bluetooth on your mobile device. Keep the mobile device and the health watch within syncing distance (no more than 6 feet / 2 meters from each other, in the same room). 2 Once successfully connected, the measurement results are synced to the Philips HealthSuite health app. If the sync is successful, the measurement results are displayed in the Philips HealthSuite health app, where you can check your personal health data. Note: Some measurements take up to 24 hours to begin to display data. Note: If you are unable to sync, see chapter 'Troubleshooting' for more information. Firmware update: the app will notify you when new firmware of the health watch is available and will ask you whether you want to update it. Wearing the health watch Always wear the Philips health watch on the outside of your wrist, in direct contact with your skin (Fig. 2). Make sure the watch is not on your wrist bone (Fig. 3). The straps need to be tight, but comfortable around your wrist to ensure a correct heart rate measurement. If you feel any discomfort due to the straps, give your skin some rest by not wearing the watch for a short period of time. When refastening the watch, try loosening the strap a notch. If you continue to feel discomfort after a short period of rest and loosening the strap, remove the device and call 1-844-531-6861 for assistance and/ or consult your doctor. Note: Please check and if necessary, change the setting 'handedness' and 'wearing position' in the device settings menu in the Philips HealthSuite health app. This is to indicate if you are left or right handed and the side that you wear your watch on. Remove the watch at least once a day (e.g. before or during a meal) to clean your wrist/arm with some mild soap and water. Clean the watch regularly, especially if your watch becomes dirty or wet during an activity. Make sure that your watch and arm are dry before refastening the watch to reduce the risk of skin irritation. If you use skin care products, do so sparingly on the areas of the skin that are covered by the watch. The watch is splash proof with a 1 atm rating, which allows you to use it outdoors in the rain. Changing the strap The Philips health watch comes with a second strap in a different size. Use this strap if the other strap does not fit. The straps have quick release pins which allow for easy change of straps. If you want to use the other strap: 1 Turn the watch upside down. 2 Release the pin of the strap (Fig. 4). 3 Gently remove the strap. 4 Position the watch correctly, lock one side of the new strap in the watch, unlock the pin of the new strap and lock the strap in the watch (Fig. 5).

Total energy expenditure Your total energy expenditure is how many calories you have burned overall today. This number includes your active energy expenditure as well as the calories your body burns just to function normally.
