In run mode, the watch tells me that I ran for 8,5km but in reality (checked with accurate maps and few other apps) i ran 7,8km. How can I Fix this ?

    Edit the activity and adjust the distance manually as needed. To improve the accuracy for the future, you can try changing the Recording Mode in the global System settings from Smart Recording to Every Second. And in the settings of the concerned activity, enable option GPS + Galileo (would not recommend using GPS+Glonass now in the time of the war in Ukraine, since Russians may decide shutting down the public access). Also, after activating the GPS, and getting the GPS lock, wait couple of minutes (so called soak time) before you start.
