Introduction
Samsung Health records and manages your 24-hour activity and sleep pattern to help
cultivate healthy habits. When connecting your Galaxy Watch Active to your mobile devices,
you can save and manage health-related data on the Samsung Health app.
When the automatic exercise recognition feature is activated after you exercise for more than
10 minutes while wearing the Galaxy Watch Active, it will display an encouraging message.
When the Galaxy Watch Active recognizes inactivity for more than one hour, it will notify you
and show you some stretching motions to follow. When your Galaxy Watch Active recognizes
you are driving, it will not display an encouraging message or stretches.

Samsung Health features are intended only for leisure, well-being, and fitness
purposes. They are not intended for medical use. Before using these features, read

Wearing the Galaxy Watch Active correctly
•
When you activate the auto heart rate tracking feature, or when the Galaxy Watch Active
recognizes your exercise, the Galaxy Watch Active will automatically track your heart
rate. When measuring your heart rate, wear the Galaxy Watch Active snugly on your arm
above your wrist as shown in the figure below.
•
If you fasten the Galaxy Watch Active too tightly, skin irritation may occur and if you
fasten it too loosely, friction may occur.
<Rear>
Heart rate sensor
•
Measurement conditions and surroundings may affect the accuracy of the heart
rate sensor.
•
Use the HR feature only for measuring your heart rate.
•
Do not look directly at the heart rate sensor’s lights. Doing so may impair your
vision. Make sure children do not look directly at the lights.
•
Cold ambient temperatures may affect your measurement; during winter or cold
weather, keep yourself warm when checking your heart rate.
Apps and features
58
•
Smoking or consuming alcohol before taking measurements may cause your heart
rate to be different from your normal heart rate.
•
Do not talk, yawn, or breathe deeply while taking heart rate measurements. Doing
so may cause your heart rate to be recorded inaccurately.
•
Because the heart rate sensor uses light to determine heart rate, its accuracy may
vary due to physical factors that affect light absorption and reflection, such as
blood circulation/blood pressure, skin condition and location and concentration of
blood vessels. In addition, if your heart rate is extremely high or low, measurements
may be inaccurate.
•
Users with thin wrists may receive inaccurate heart rate measurements when
the device is loose, causing the light to be reflected unevenly. If heart rate
measurement is not working properly, adjust the position of the device’s heart rate
sensor to the right, left, up, or down on your wrist, or wear the device on your inner
arm so that the sensor is in contact with your skin.
•
If the heart rate sensor is dirty, wipe the sensor and try again. Obstructions
between the device’s band and your wrist, such as body hair, dirt, or other objects
may prevent the light from reflecting evenly. Please make sure you remove such
obstructions before use.
•
If your device becomes hot to the touch, remove it until it cools. Exposing skin to a
hot surface of the device for a long time may cause skin burn.

Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) for Wireless Devices
The SAR is a value that corresponds to the relative amount of RF energy absorbed by the user
of a wireless device.
The SAR value of a device is the result of an extensive testing, measuring and calculation
process. It does not represent how much RF the device emits. All devices are tested at their
highest value in strict laboratory settings. But when in operation, the SAR of a device can
be substantially less than the level reported to ISED (Innovation, Science and Economic
Development Canada). This is because of a variety of factors including its proximity to a base
station antenna, design and other factors. What is important to remember is that each device
meets strict federal guidelines. Variations in SAR values do not represent a variation in safety.
All devices must meet the federal standard, which incorporates a substantial margin of safety.
As stated above, variations in SAR values between different model devices do not mean
variations in safety.
SAR values at or below the federal standard limit are considered safe for use by the public. The
federal standard limits are 4.0 W/ kg (10g) of extremity SAR and 1.6W/kg (1g) of Head/Wrist
SAR. The extremity SAR (wrist SAR) has been used for non-speaker modes at a 0 cm device
distance from the body when worn in contact with the wrist. Additionally, for voice activated
transmission, the front of this device has been tested when worn on the wrist and positioned
a minimum of 1.0 cm from the head.
The wireless charger complies with ISED Radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This device and its antenna must not be co-located or operating
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. This equipment should be installed and
operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm between the radiator and your body.
