WARNING: Never use a power source with a boost charging function, as this will damage the smartwatch. The smartwatch is charged at the factory, but while it was waiting for you at the store's warehouse, its battery has already been discharged. Turn on the smartwatch to check the charge. To do this, press and hold the SOS button for 3 seconds. The smartwatch will turn on and you will see in the upper right corner of the screen a battery indicator, like a battery. If only one red line is visible on the indicator, then the charge of your smartwatch is running out, and it needs to be charged urgently.
To do this, open the rubber plug on the smartwatch case…
...and plug the smaller end of the USB cable into the USB socket. Connect the larger connector to a charger or a USB connector on your computer.
Depending on how low the battery is, it may take 1-2 hours to fully charge the smartwatch. Once the battery is fully charged, the battery indicator will show 4 green bars.

WARNING: In different smartphone models, the path to access the SIM card lock may differ from the specified one. In this case, you can find it yourself by typing "PIN-code" in the "Search settings" field (next to the magnifying glass pictogram). In addition, the SIM card needs to be switched to 2G only mode. To do this, go to the Settings -> Connections -> Mobile Networks ->Network mode and select the "2G only" mode there. After that, open the browser on your phone and check if any site can be loaded into it in the "2G only" mode. If you have Internet access, then the "Only 2G" mode on your SIM card is supported.

WARNING: Some SIM cards are sold without credit, so make sure to top up your account before inserting the SIM card into your smartwatch. Also, be sure to activate your SIM card. Some operators activate the SIM card after the first call to any number. Usually, the way to activate the SIM card is written on the packaging of the starter pack.
Let's check if we did everything right. Turn on the smartwatch with the SOS button and tap the screen to switch from the screensaver to the main screen of the watch. If in the upper left corner of the smartwatch screen you see a mobile signal strength indicator of four or three bars, then the SIM card is installed and working correctly.
As soon as the application starts, you will see a request for what type of smartwatch you need to connect. Select "GSM Devices". Then go through the authorization process. To do this, go to the lower tab “Settings”, and there select the upper tab “GSM-devices”. If you have turned off the Bluetooth function, then you need to turn it on. Therefore, if the application asks you about Bluetooth activation, select the answer option "Yes". Then register your account on the server. To do this, you need to click on the "Register" button, enter your email address, your smartphone number and password. Immediately after registration, the application will prompt you to add a GSM device (this is your kids smartwatch). Click "Add GSM device".
Now you need to check checkboxes at all stages of preparing the smartwatch for connection. This is very important: after all, if your smartwatch is not charged, there is no money on the SIM card, the “2G only” mode is not available, then you will not be able to connect the smartwatch. Also, make sure you have inserted the card correctly. Now you need to enter the registration code in the "Registration code" field. This can be done in three ways:
Then, if everything was done exactly, you will see the message "The device is successfully connected." The Canyon Life application will start initializing your device, and after it finishes, you will see the kids smartwatch control screen.


All the phone numbers you entered will appear in the “Phone Book” section of the smartwatch menu.



Remove smartwatch from Canyon Life app If you bought another smartwatch, and the previous smartwatch is out of order, or there was some kind of error in the smartwatch, you can remove it from the Canyon Life app. To do this, click on the "Remove device" button.
Before installation the SIM card, you need to turn off the smartwatch. This means that the SIM card can only be inserted when your smartwatch is off. To turn off the smartwatch, press the SOS button for at least 5 seconds. The smartwatch is not initialized in the Canyon Life application Make sure that:
Also check to see if the Canyon Life app has been added to your Do Not Disturb list. WARNING: in different models of smartphones, the procedure for allowing notifications from the Canyon Life app may proceed differently. However, the principle of this procedure is similar and you can easily find it intuitively.
- Step one: unpack your smartwatch and charge the battery
- Step two: get your SIM card ready for use
- Step three: insert the SIM card into the smartwatch
- Step four: install the Canyon Life app
- Step five: smartwatch management from the Canyon Life app
- Problem solving
Step one: unpack your smartwatch and charge the battery
After opening the box, you will find not only the smartwatch, but also the USB charging cable. WARNING: Be careful not to lose the USB cable from the smartwatch box, as some other cables of this type may not fit the smartwatch and you may not be able to charge them. Through the USB connector, the watch can be charged from a computer, laptop, charger, car or power adapter.



Step two: get your SIM card ready for use
After the smartwatch is charged, insert the SIM card into it. But before that, the SIM card must be prepared. The fact is that a blocking PIN code can be installed on the SIM card, which is usually typed from the smartphone keypad, but there is no keypad on the children's watch, so the PIN code request could be disabled. In addition, the SIM card needs to be activated, topped up and set to 2G only mode. Setting the mode "Only 2G" is necessary in order to check if your SIM-card works in this mode. If your SIM card does not support 2G mode, then the smartwatch will not work with it, since the smartwatch only works in 2G mode. To do this, install the smartwatch SIM card into your smartphone first and go to its settings. Then open the tabs in sequence: Settings -> Biometrics and Security -> Other security settings -> Set up SIM-card lock. And turn off the switch “Lock SIM card”.







Step three: insert the SIM card into the smartwatch
Now insert the SIM card into the smartwatch. To do this, first turn them off with the big SOS button. Then open the case cover of the smartwatch. Find a small slot on the back cover near the SOS button. Insert your fingernail or the tip of a knife into it and carefully lift the cover. Lift the battery also carefully: note that it is attached to the smartwatch board with two wires. Then lift the cover of the SIM card container and insert the SIM card as shown in the photo. WARNING: Carefully release the metal plate retainer. To do this, slide the plate towards the smartwatch case wall: then it will open easily. Then insert the SIM card with the beveled corner exactly as shown in the photo, cover it with a metal plate and slide the plate towards the center to fix it. Do not use excessive force when doing this, as the fastening mechanics may break. Then place the battery and close the smartwatch case cover.


Step four: install the Canyon Life app
In order to contact your kid, to send him a message or to check where the kid is now, you need to install the Canyon Life app. To do this, go to Google Play or the App Store, find this application there using the search field and install it. On the application page, click on the "Install" button and wait for the application to install. Then click on the "Open" button.




- Rewrite the registration code directly from the tag attached to the smartwatch strap. It is printed right after the words "Reg Code". Do not enter Serial Number (S / N) and IMEI Number.
- In the Canyon Life application, click on the QR code icon immediately after the words “Registration code”. The camera of your smartphone will start. Bring the camera lens to the tag so that the QR code on the tag is clearly displayed on the screen. The registration number will be automatically copied into the "Registration code" field.
- Go to the smartwatch menu, find the "Device information" screen and open the "RegCode" section. There will be both a registration code and its QR code.
