Note that outdoor activity profiles will turn on the GPS, while indoor activities won't turn on the GPS. It's recommended that you do a few run or walks outside to calibrate the internal sensor next time you want to do a treadmill activity for example.

1. PRESS the KEY BUTTON
2. SELECT an outdoor activity profile like RUN WALK BIKE ETC...
3. Go outside and wait for a GPS signal. You can select a workout or adjust the setting for this profile like data screens, auto lap, auto pause, alerts and other settings you can customize.
4. Once you get the GREEN RING to indicate that the GPS is ready, you can PRESS the KEY to start tracking the activity.
5. PRESS the KEY to STOP.
6. You'll get a summary page and you can select DONE.
7. You can choose to SAVE or DISCARD the activity.

These steps will be the same for the other outdoor profiles.
