Problems & solutions:
- The displayed sunset/rise time is not correct
- The message "GPS?" is displayed
- Update the saved location of the watch face: Go to the start screen of an activity such as running and wait until the watch has a GPS signal.
- The displayed moonset/rise time is not correct
- See the step above. The times for the moon may differ by a few minutes as these are calculated locally on the clock and the algorithm is quite complex
- The displayed location is not correct
- See the step above. However, the location may remain inaccurate when using Garmin Weather, depending on the coverage of the measuring stations. A more accurate alternative is to use the OpenWeatherMaps provider. Instructions can be found here: https://gapps.orcatec.net/misc/weather.php
- The time format is not correct (12/24h)
- The time format is changed in the system settings of the clock: Navigate to System - Time - Format and change it there
- The temperature (°C/°F) or distance unit (km/mi/ft) is not correct
- Is changed in the system settings on the clock itself. Navigate to System - Format - Units and change it there
