    							Device Features
    You can swipe left or right to scroll through the features on your device. Icons represent many of the features available. A flashing icon means the device is searching for a compatible sensor, such as a bike speed sensor or heart rate monitor. A solid icon means the sensor is paired.
    NOTE: Some features may not be available. You can enable these features by customizing the screens your device displays 
    (Device Settings).
    Time and 
    dateThe current time of day and date based on your location. The device updates the time and date when you synchronize your device to a mobile device, or you can set the time manually.
    The total number of steps taken for the day.GOALThe number of remaining steps needed to reach your step goal for the day. The device learns and proposes a new goal for you at the beginning of each day.
    Move barThe amount of time you have been inactive.The amount of total calories burned for the current day, including both active and resting calories.KM or MIThe distance traveled in kilometers or miles for the current day.

    About Heart Rate Zones
    Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5 according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.
    Fitness Goals
    Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and 
    improve your fitness by understanding and applying these 
    principles.
    •Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.
    •Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve 
    cardiovascular capacity and strength.
    •Knowing your heart rate zones can prevent you from overtraining and can decrease your risk of injury.
    If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table 
    (Heart Rate Zone Calculations) to determine the best heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.
    If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate. The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.
    VIRB Remote
    The VIRB remote function allows you to control your VIRB action camera from a distance. Go to www.garmin.com/VIRB to 
    purchase a VIRB action camera.
    Controlling a VIRB Action Camera
    Before you can use the VIRB remote function, you must enable 
    the remote setting on your VIRB camera. See the VIRB Series 
    Owner's Manual for more information. You must also enable the VIRB screen on your vívosmart device (Device Settings).
