Wearing the Ryze smart watch
To get the most out of your Ryze smart watch, it’s important to make sure you’re wearing it properly so the monitors can gather data accurately.
How to wear your Ryze smart watch
Please ensure the smart watch is fastened comfortably, and if your skin becomes irritated, please take it off and let your skin breathe.
Skin irritation can happen for the following reasons.
Not too tight
Wearing an overly tight watch can trap sweat and cause skin irritation as well as impact the monitor.
Not too loose
Your watch should be snug but comfortable. If the wrist-based watch sensors are not reading your heart rate, try tightening the strap a little bit and keep the watch two finger widths above the wrist. Do loosen the watch after a workout.
Keep things dry and clean
It’s important to make sure your skin is dry before wearing your watch. Wearing a wet device for an extended period will irritate the skin.
After exercising, please make sure you thoroughly clean and dry your hands, wrist and watch strap.
Traces of soap, cleaners and detergents left on the device may irritate the skin.
Use ‘soap free’ cleaner when you clean your watch.

The Ryze Trek has an IP68 protection rating that is used in the mobile phone industry. The rating defines a product’s protection against exposure to water and dust.
Ryze Trek is swim proof. This means the watch is suitable for shallow water activities including swimming. It can be worn during a cold-water shower, indoor pool and open water. The watch can survive spills and splashers.
The watch is NOT suitable for deep diving, in a spa/hot tub, in a hot spring, sauna or high temperature steam environment.
Connect your Ryze Gene smart watch to Ryze Connect App to acquire current location via the Assisted GPS (AGPS) feature before starting an outdoor workout (for example, outdoor run) that requires a satellite location fix.
Please note environmental factors such as tall buildings, trees and thick cloud may interfere with the smart watch’s ability to acquire signals.
To update the weather data, you must sync the smart watch with the Ryze Connect App. Try the following in sequence:
Ensure that Bluetooth is always connected. The smart watch does not display notifications for messages or calls that are received while Bluetooth is disconnected. The smart watch will not receive notifications after the device is set to DND (Do Not Disturb) mode.
The smart watch does not download the weather data directly. To update the weather data, you must sync the smart watch with the App. Try the following in sequence:
The accelerometer and algorithms that the device uses to count your walking steps are highly sensitive, even small differences may affect the accelerometer and algorithms. You must provide accurate personal data during the device’s initial configuration. For example, if you enter wrong gender, height, weight, or age, it could result in inaccurate exercise data, such as incorrect counting of steps, distance, or calorie. In addition, factors such as your arm swing, stride, posture, road surface, and slope can also affect the step count.
Factors like wearing the device too loosely, swinging your arms, or sliding of the device over your skin can impact heart rate readings. In addition, wearing the device too tightly, raising your arms, or clenching your fists can affect blood circulation, which also affects sensor performance. When testing your heart rate, it is recommended that you keep your arm straight, remain static, and relax your muscles. Ensure that the device remains in close contact with your skin. Even when you wear the device correctly, individual differences such as skin colour, body hair, tattoos, and scars can also affect heart rate sensor performance slightly.
To improve step count accuracy, the device has a minimum threshold of steps. This means that the total step count shown in the Ryze Connect App only changes when you take more than 10 steps. The device starts recording data after your tenth step and only saves data when you have completed 30 steps.
The smart watch does not need to be connected to your phone to store exercise or sleep data. To sync data from the device, enable Bluetooth on your phone and ensure it is within range of the device. The smart watch can retain up to seven days’ exercise and sleep data in typical use.
