You are correct, the ECG function setup needs the device to be in the country where it was purchased. It is unlikely a Canadian watch will enable ECG in Germany.


If you purchased the cellular (LTE) version you will also find it is not compatible, can not be enabled on German networks, and is not supported for warranty in Europe. My advice if this is a recent purchase (within 14 days) is to return it for refund, and purchase a compatible model when you return to Germany.
