The integrated Global Positioning System (GPS) in the Zeblaze Blitz allows for precise tracking of your outdoor activities. This feature is particularly useful for running, cycling, hiking, and other outdoor sports.

To ensure optimal GPS performance, use the watch in open areas with a clear view of the sky. Allow a few moments for the watch to acquire a satellite signal before starting your activity.

- Dry the watch thoroughly after exposure to water, especially the charging contacts.
