– The side SOS button is used to turn on/off the display (tap) and to turn on/off the LAMAX
WatchY2 device (long press), if the device is not connected to the GSM network. If the device
connected to the GSM network is switched on, a long press of the button (more than 5
seconds) activates the SOS function.
2) Welcome and lock screen
After turning on the LAMAX WatchY2, you will see a welcome screen with the current time,
date and day of the week.
The signal strength is always displayed on the left side of the top bar as can be the mute, data
reception, Wi-Fi location, GPS location, received messages, and do not disturb mode icons.
There is a battery status indicator on the right side of the top bar.
When the device wakes up, the analogue clock screen is displayed, with the current day in
abbreviations (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun) and the current date. This screen serves as a

3) Messages
The „Messages“ feature allows you to send voice messages from your device to a paired
account in LAMAX Tracking, as well as view received text messages and play voice messages.
To send a message, tap the messages and hold down the „Press“ button on the device display
for at least 2 seconds.
When the button is released or the maximum message length of 15 seconds has elapsed, the
message is sent.
On the display in the „Messages“ section, the child sees in the pink bubble the last text message
sent from the LAMAX Tracking application and in the blue bubble they can listen to the last voice
message, the length of which (in seconds) they can see on the left side of the bubble.
To play or view the message, double-click the bubble icon and the content will be played or
displayed to the child.
4) Call
The „Call“ function allows you to dial and call any numbers. By default, the dial feature is
turned off. To enable the dial feature, it is necessary to set it in the LAMAX Tracking application
(Menu →Current device settings →Dialpad) to „ON“.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
The device only displays the last text and voice message. So don‘t send more than one
message in a row. To ensure that your child receives messages completely, send a maximum

5) Contacts
The „Contacts“ section shows the names and phone numbers of saved contacts. These records
are managed in the LAMAX Tracking mobile application (Menu →Current device settings →
Contact list).
The primary goal of the device is to protect your child. The security of the LAMAX WatchY2
against unknown numbers means that no telephone number that is not stored in the
contacts of the LAMAX WatchY2 device can be dialled. This feature is turned on only when the
administrator number is set.
In the LAMAX Tracking application, set all telephone numbers that the LAMAX WatchY2 user
should call or that the LAMAX WatchY2 user might need (Menu →Current device settings →
Contact list).
Set the „Administrator phone number“ if you want to block incoming calls from numbers that
are not in the contact list (Menu →Current device settings →Administrator phone number)
If you do not set an „Administrator Phone Number“, you can call the device from any phone
number.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
As part of the initial setup of the application, do not forget to enter your and other necessary
phone numbers in the LAMAX Tracking app (Menu →Current device settings →Contact list),
otherwise you will not be able to call the LAMAX WatchY2 and the user will not be able to dial
important phone numbers quickly.
We recommend adding contacts to both parents, grandfather, grandmother and, for
example, rescue services.
Also do not forget to fill in the SOS contacts for the correct functionality of the SOS function,
see 5.1. (Menu →Current device settings →Default SOS contacts)

6) Friends
The „Friends“ function allows you to pair two LAMAX WatchY2 devices that are next to each
other*. To pair, hold your finger on the „Friends“ icon for at least 3 seconds, the devices will
exchange contact information and send each other voice messages. Only the last received
voice message is always displayed. This function allows you to pair only 2 LAMAX WatchY2
devices with each other.
*Both LAMAX WatchY2 devices must have a GPS signal.
7) Steps
The „Steps“ section includes a pedometer function*, to motivate your child to move and
monitor his activity in the form of steps taken and calories burned per day**.
To use the „Steps“ function, you need to turn it on and set the „Interval“ in the LAMAX Tracking
application (Menu →Pedometer →Pedometer settings).
* Turning on the pedometer greatly increases battery consumption.
** The measurement of the built-in pedometer cannot be compared with professional meters,
so use this data as a guide only.

5. Further Features of the LAMAX WatchY2
1) SOS button
The physical „SOS button“ (see section LAMAX WatchY2 Controls) ) is primarily intended
for dialling a stored SOS contact and sending an SOS notification to the LAMAX Tracking
application when a threat is felt.
The SOS function is activated by pressing and holding the „SOS button“ for 5 seconds. If two
SOS contacts are entered, and the device cannot get through to the first number entered, it
will automatically call the second. Before dialling, a notification will also be sent to the LAMAX
Tracking mobile application.
Note: To dial an SOS contact, at least one number must be entered in: (Menu →Current
device settings → Default SOS contacts).
2) Monitored areas
In the LAMAX Tracking application it is possible to set „Monitored areas“ (Menu →Device
Geofence). After visiting or leaving the set monitored area, the user of the application will
receive a notification about this event. For more information on setting this function, refer to
the LAMAX Tracking instructions.
3) Alarm clock
The device has an „Alarm clock“ function, the settings of which can be found in the LAMAX
Tracking mobile application (Menu →Current device settings →Alarm clock).
4) Do not disturb / school mode
By activating the „Do not disturb / school mode“ in the LAMAX Tracking application (Menu →
Current device settings →Do not disturb), the functionality of the device is reduced at set
time intervals (e.g.: teaching time/after-school activities) to just the clock display and using
the „SOS button“. The device cannot be called. When this mode is turned on, the icon
appears on the LAMAX WatchY2 screen. This feature can be turned off at any time by deleting
time intervals.
5) Finding the device
With the „Find device“ feature, you can easily locate a device you cannot find. After activating
this function in the LAMAX Tracking mobile application (Menu →Current device settings →
Find a Watch), the device will start ringing and will display the text “Here I am☺“.

6) Remote shutdown
The LAMAX WatchY2 can be shut down remotely via the LAMAX Tracking application (Menu
→Remote shutdown).
7) Power saving mode
This mode turns off the automatic refreshing of all location services. However, it is still possible
to use manual position reset on the main screen using the icon .
„Power save“ can be found in the LAMAX Tracking app (Menu → Current device settings →
Maximum power saving).
6. Positioning
The LAMAX WatchY2 device uses 3 positioning methods:
1) GPS – Primary
GPS refers to the process of determining the position of the device at a specific point in time
using Global Positioning System (GPS) data. Location accuracy ranges from 5 metres to 30
metres based on signal strength. This is the most accurate type of positioning. For GPS to
function properly, the device must be located outside buildings or other covered areas.
2) Wi-Fi – Secondary
Wi-Fi location is used when the device is located inside a building or other area where a GPS
signal is not available, but Wi-Fi networks are. Location accuracy ranges up to 300 metres.
This location function works on the principle of reading the surrounding Wi-Fi networks and
subsequent positioning using their names.
3) LBS – Tertiary
LBS positioning is used when GPS or Wi-Fi location is not available. The position is determined
by the nearest mobile network (GSM) transmitters. LBS-based positioning accuracy is up to
1000 metres.
Note: In LAMAX Tracking, you can turn Wi-Fi and LBS positioning on and off individually
(MENU → Current device settings → About device → Do not use LBS or Do not use Wi-F).
However, we recommend that this only be done situationally. In cities, we recommend
always leaving at least Wi-Fi positioning on and at least LBS outside cities, due to the lower
density of Wi-Fi coverage in the countryside/villages. If you keep both location services on
(Wi-Fi and LBS), the device always selects the available location method in the following
order (GPS →Wi-Fi →LBS).

properly attached. The device is not intended for use during water sports, swimming, diving
or showering. It must not be exposed to pressurized water or heavy water flow, such as
sudden immersion or jumping into water.
3) Battery life
The battery life of the LAMAX WatchY2 depends on many factors. One factor is the set position
refresh interval, the others are the location services used, the brightness and the pedometer
function.
Device battery life according to the set refresh interval:
- 1 minute = lasts up to 24 hours
- 3 minutes = lasts up to 1.5 days
- 5 minutes = lasts up to 2 days

Back to contents
When using higher brightness values +3 and +5, the power consumption of the device
increases up to 2x depending on its use/how long the display is lit. We recommend basic
brightness for optimal battery life.
If the GPS signal is not available, Wi-Fi and LBS location is used, which increases battery
consumption.
If the pedometer is used, power consumption may increase up to 2 times due to more frequent
waking up of the device.
4) Charging the device
Fully charge the device before using it for the first time. For charging, use only charging
adapters with a current of 1A and a voltage of 5V together with the supplied charging cable.
Using an adapter or cable other than the recommended one may damage your device and void
your warranty.
5) Charging times
The LAMAX WatchY2 charges from 0% battery to 100% battery in about 2 hours using the
recommended adapter.
6) Data traffic
The average data consumption of the LAMAX WatchY2 is 50 MB per month (based on 1-minute
positioning refresh interval and 10 messages per day).
