First time setup

The first time you turn on your NAVO watch, a short setup process will guide you through the essential settings.

Charge and turn on

  1. Make sure the rear charging contacts are clean and dry. Attach the included magnetic charger so it sits flat, then connect it to USB power.
  2. Press and hold the crown button on the upper-right side to turn on the watch.
  3. Choose your language and distance units on the touchscreen.

The crown is a push button; it does not rotate. See the illustrated button guide if you need help finding it.

Language selection

Language selection screen

When the watch is turned on for the first time, you will be asked to select your language.

Change the language after setup

If you selected the wrong language, use the icons to change it without needing to read the current menu:

  1. From the clock screen, swipe right to left.
  2. Tap the gear icon to open Settings.
  3. Swipe from bottom to top until you see the globe icon.
  4. Tap the globe icon and select your preferred language.
  5. Confirm your selection.

Units

Units selection screen

On NAVO W1, the unit setting controls golf distances. You will be asked to choose meters or yards during setup, and you can change this later in the watch settings.

Time & date

When paired with a phone, the watch automatically syncs the date and time from the phone, overwriting the watch settings, including a manually set time. Without phone pairing, GPS sets the date and time when golf mode receives a signal.

For phone sync, GPS time, daylight saving time, and manual time setup, see Setting the time.
