2Warnings and safety instructions
Please, do NOT insert the SIM card into the watch before this manual instructs you
to do so.
Please, do NOT take out the SIM card when the watch is powered on. It could cause
damage to the watch.
Please, do NOTimmerse the watch under water. The watch comes with IP66 water
protection, which will protect it even from strong water jets but not from
underwater pressure.
Also, please, make sure the SIM card slot cover is properly closed in order to avoid
water entering the watch. This will result in losing the warranty.
Keep the product away from fire and avoid high temperature environments.
The watch cannot send location information when the battery has run out, there is
no mobile data service (no E symbol on the watch display) or the watch is out of the
GSM network coverage area.
When there is no data service, the watch cannot be located on the map and voice
messages will not reach the phone or the watch.
The watch does not prevent data roaming. It can create expensive data traffic when
used in a different country with the same SIM card.
The product and the mobile app are continuously developed. Their functions and
language can slightly differ from this manual. Use this document as a reference
only.
3Before you begin
Make sure the watch is fully charged before you start the installation. It is
recommended to charge the watch for at least 12 hours before the first use.
Check if the QR code sticker is available and not damaged either on the back of your
watch or on the packaging. Should both QR stickers be unreadable, please, follow
the method to reveal the CID number as described in the FAQ section at the end of
this document.
The watch comes with a quad band GSM chip (850/900/1800/1900 MHz) but it is
recommended to ask your dealer which service operators support your watch in
your area.
The watch operates with a micro SIM card. Normal SIM cards cannot be inserted
and nano SIM cards will damage the watch which will result in losing the warranty.
It is not possible to enter a PIN number with the watch so make sure you use a SIM
card that does not require a PIN number when inserted or remove the PIN security
in a mobile phone before you insert it in the watch.

4Charging the watch
Remove the watch and the charging cable from the packaging. Connect the magnetic
headof the cable to the metallic contacts on the back of the watch (rotate the connector
until the magnets pull it in position) and connect the other end of the cable to a USB power
source.
Charging the watch to its full capacity normally takes 2-3 hours.
However, for the first time, please, charge the watch for 12 hours and 8 hours for the
second and third times to ensure a long battery life.
It is highly recommended to use a good quality adapter for charging the watch.
Please, do NOT turn on the watch yet. You need to install the mobile application first as
described in the next chapter.
5The mobile application (for the guardian)
The TAKIT system consists of two parts. The watch and a linked smart phone that runs the
TAKIT application logged on with a valid user account. One mobile phone can be
connected to several watches and one watch can be linked to many user accounts.
Before you start using the watch, please, set up the mobile application first. This chapter
describes the installation and operation of the software.
5.1 Downloading the mobile application
Please, search for and installone of the following software:
For Apple phones, search for “TAKIT GPS” in the App Store.
For android phones, search for “TAKIT GPS PRO” in the Google Play store.
5.2 Registering a user and logging in
Once the software is installed, open it.
Tap New user to start the registration process.
Select Mobile or Email to create your user account.

6
oIf you select Mobile, the verification code will be sent to you in an SMS
message to the given phone number. This number will be one of the
registered phone numbers that can communicate with the watch.
Note: in countries where the local mobile number starts with a zero (0),
please, register with an email address. The verification code cannot be sent
to these kinds of phone numbers.
oIf you select Email, the verification code will be sent to you in an email. Once
verified, you can enter the phone number that you want to use for this user.
Note:if you do not receive the email with the verification code, please, check
your spam box or spam quarantine.

5.3 Setting up the application (connecting to a watch)
Once you are logged in the mobile app, do the following to connect it to the watch:
1. Tap the icon in the top right corner of the Map screen to open the list of linked
watches.
2. Now tap Add a watch to register your watch.
3. There are two ways to register the watch. Either by scanning its QR code or by

using the camera if asked). Now scan the QR code that is on the back of your
watch or on the outside of its packaging. Move the QR code towards or
away from the phone until it is read automatically.
Warning: we suggest you remove the QR sticker from the back of the watch
when all family members have registered the watch in their mobile app. This
way you prevent other people from registering the watch.
oTo enter the CID number: Tap Please enter CID, type in the CID number (see
the FAQ at the end of this document to learn how to retrieve the CID
number) and then tap OK.
4. On the next screen, select the gender of the person who will use the watch.
5. Select the user’s weight.
6. Select the user’s height.

insert into the watch.
9. When you tap Done, the Map screen will return. The watch will not yet be visible on
the map as the SIM card is not inserted yet. (Later, when you add the watch to
other phones, the watch will immediately appear on the map.)
Note: the user who first links its phone to the watch will become the administrator of that
watch. This can be changed later.
5.4 Main functions
The following section is a brief description of the mobile application. You are now on the
Map screen. This contains the communication functions between the watch and the
mobile phone. The button opens the Main menu that contains additional functions
and settings.
5.4.1 Map screen
The Map screen shows the location of the linked watches on the map as well as provides
ways of communication between the app and any of those watches.
The Map screen is also the first screen you see when you start the software.
When started, the software shows all connected watches on the map. You can tap in
the top right corner to select any of the watches to communicate with.
The software uses Google Maps to locate the watches. To better understand the location
of the watch, you are offered three map visualization modes: Satellite, 2D and 3D. Tap
to switch between these options.

Warning: choosing Satellite mode may result in excessive data use in your mobile phone.
When one watch is selected in the menu, you have the following options at the bottom
of the Map screen:
Tap Loc to see the current location of the watch. This will only work if the watch is
turned on with an inserted SIM card, the SIM card has sufficient data and the watch
has GSM signal (you see these icons on the watch display: and ).
Tap Track to see a sequence of previous locations of the watch. Choose a period of
time to display and then tap OK to view.
Tap to jump to the Voice messages screen. Tap and hold the Hold to talk
button and record your outgoing message.
When there is an incoming message from the watch, a red dot will appear on the
icon. Tap to enter and listen to the new voice message.
Tap Dial to start a phone call to the watch.
Tap Guard to silently call the watch. In this mode the watch will automatically pick
up the call without making a sound. This allows the guardian to listen into the watch
environment without being noticed.
5.4.2 Main menu
Tap the icon on the Map screen to open the Main menu. You have the following
options:

modify or delete any family member in the list and transfer the administration right
to another user.
Tap Watch Settings to set up other watch parameters or initiate additional
functions:
oRemote watch turn off: if a SIM card is inserted, the watch can only be
turned off remotely from the app.
There are two ways to turn the watch back on: either you enter the time
when you want the watch to automatically wake up when you initiate this
function, or you press Button 4 on the watch.

watch will send an alert to the phone in case it has been removed from the
owner’s wrist.

the watch is moving outside.
