Situational Awareness

Your Forerunner device can be used with the Varia Vision

™

device, Varia

™

smart bike lights, and rearview radar to improve

situational awareness. See the owner's manual for your Varia

device for more information.

NOTE: You may need to update the Forerunner software before

pairing Varia devices (Updating the Software Using Garmin

Express, page 28).

tempe

The tempe is an ANT+ wireless temperature sensor. You can

attach the sensor to a secure strap or loop where it is exposed

to ambient air, and therefore, provides a consistent source of

accurate temperature data. You must pair the tempe with your

device to display temperature data from the tempe.

app based on your needs. For example, you can customize data

pages and enable alerts and training features. Not all settings

are available for all activity types.

Select START, select an activity, hold UP, and select the activity

settings.

Accent Color: Sets the accent color of each activity to help

identify which activity is active.

feature (Marking

Laps by Distance, page 23).

stop moving or when you drop below a specified speed

(Enabling Auto Pause, page 23).

screens automatically while the timer is running (Using Auto

Scroll, page 23).

automatically during a strength training activity.
