more accurate FTP value, you can conduct an FTP test using a
paired power meter (Conducting an FTP Test, page 10).
Select Menu > My Stats > FTP.
Your FTP estimate appears as a value measured in watts per
kilogram, your power output in watts, and a position on the
color gauge.

read and recorded.
3
Step off the scale when indicated.
TIP: If an error occurs, step off the scale. Step on when
indicated.
History
History includes time, distance, calories, speed, lap data,
elevation, and optional ANT+ sensor information.
NOTE: History is not recorded while the timer is stopped or
paused.
When the device memory is full, a message appears. The
device does not automatically delete or overwrite your history.
Upload your history to Garmin Connect periodically to keep track
of all your ride data.

Viewing Your Time in Each Training Zone
Before you can view your time in each training zone, you must
pair your device with a compatible heart rate monitor or power
meter, complete an activity, and save the activity.
Viewing your time in each heart rate and power zone can help
you adjust your training intensity. You can adjust your power
zones (Setting Your Power Zones, page 9) and your heart rate
zones (Setting Your Heart Rate Zones, page 8) to match your
goals and abilities. You can customize a data field to display
your time in training zones during your ride (Customizing the
Data Screens, page 13).
