Maximizing Battery Life
You can do several things to extend the life of the battery.
Reduce the backlight timeout (Changing the Backlight
Settings, page 25).

using connected features (Bluetooth Connected Features,
page 9).
When pausing your activity for a longer period of time, use
the Resume Later option (Stopping an Activity, page 3).
Turn off activity tracking (Activity Tracking Settings, page 8).
Use a watch face that is not updated every second.
For example, use a watch face without a second hand
(Customizing the Watch Face, page 24).
Limit the smartphone notifications the device displays
(Managing Notifications, page 1).
Stop broadcasting heart rate data to paired Garmin devices
(Broadcasting Heart Rate Data to Garmin Devices, page 11).
Turn off wrist-based heart rate monitoring (Turning Off the
Wrist-based Heart Rate Monitor, page 12).
NOTE: Wrist-based heart rate monitoring is used to calculate
vigorous intensity minutes and calories burned.
Turn off the pulse oximeter feature (Turning Off the Wrist-
based Heart Rate Monitor, page 12).
Use UltraTrac GPS mode for your activity (UltraTrac,
page 24).
Select the Smart recording interval (System Settings,
page 24).
The temperature reading is not accurate
Your body temperature affects the temperature reading for the
internal temperature sensor. To get the most accurate
temperature reading, you should remove the watch from your
wrist and wait 20 to 30 minutes.
You can also use an optional tempe external temperature
sensor to view accurate ambient temperature readings while
wearing the watch.
How can I manually pair ANT+ sensors?
You can use the device settings to manually pair ANT+ sensors.
The first time you connect a sensor to your device using ANT+
wireless technology, you must pair the device and sensor. After
they are paired, the device connects to the sensor automatically
when you start an activity and the sensor is active and within
range.

Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other ANT+ sensors while
pairing.

If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the heart rate
monitor.

watch?

the device and sensor. After they are paired, the device

My music cuts out or my headphones do not
stay connected
When using a Forerunner 245 Music device connected to
headphones using Bluetooth technology, the signal is strongest
when there is a direct line of sight between the device and the
antenna on the headphones.
If the signal passes through your body, you may experience
signal loss or your headphones may become disconnected.
It is recommended to wear your headphones with the
antenna on the same side of your body as your
Forerunner 245 Music device.
