Auto

:  The criteria for when the auto lap is 

triggered is part of the activity profile that is 
currently being used.
As an example, when using a biking profile the 
auto lap could be set for every 15 minutes and 
a running profile could be set for every mile.

Manual:

  A new lap can be manually triggered 

by pressing the 

Back

 while a session is active.

You can manual trigger a new lap even while 
automatic lap triggering is set.  For example if 
you are using a running activity with auto lap 
set for every mile, you can manually trigger 
a new lap with the 

Back

 button and the 

automatic trigger will set the next lap at a mile 
from that point.
