Indoor Activities

The MARQ device can be used for training indoors, such as

running on an indoor track or using a stationary bike. GPS is

turned off for indoor activities.

When running or walking with GPS turned off, speed, distance,

and cadence are calculated using the accelerometer in the

device. The accelerometer is self-calibrating. The accuracy of

the speed, distance, and cadence data improves after a few

outdoor runs or walks using GPS.

TIP: Holding the handrails of the treadmill reduces accuracy.

You can use an optional foot pod to record pace, distance, and

cadence.

When cycling with GPS turned off, speed and distance are not

available unless you have an optional sensor that sends speed

and distance data to the device (such as a speed or cadence

sensor).

Calibrating the Treadmill Distance

To record more accurate distances for your treadmill runs, you

can calibrate the treadmill distance after you run at least 1.5 km

(1 mi.) on a treadmill. If you use different treadmills, you can

manually calibrate the treadmill distance on each treadmill or

after each run.

Start a treadmill activity (Starting an Activity, page 2), and run

at least 1.5 km (1 mi.) on the treadmill.

After you complete your run, select STOP.

Select an option:

• To calibrate the treadmill distance the first time, select

Save.

The device prompts you to complete the treadmill

calibration.

• To manually calibrate the treadmill distance after the first-

time calibration, select Calibrate & Save > Yes.

Check the treadmill display for the distance traveled, and

enter the distance on your device.

Recording a Strength Training Activity

You can record sets during a strength training activity. A set is

multiple repetitions (reps) of a single move.

From the watch face, press START.

Select Strength.

The first time you record a strength training activity, you must

select which wrist your watch is on.

Press START to start the set timer.

Start your first set.

The device counts your reps. Your rep count appears when

you complete at least four reps.

TIP: The device can only count reps of a single move for

each set. When you want to change moves, you should finish

the set and start a new one.

Press LAP to finish the set.

The watch displays the total reps for the set. After several

seconds, the rest timer appears.

If necessary, press DOWN, and edit the number of reps.

TIP: You can also add the weight used for the set.

When you are done resting, press LAP to start your next set.

Repeat for each strength training set until your activity is

complete.

After your last set, press START to stop the set timer.

Select Save.

Outdoor Activities

The MARQ device comes preloaded with outdoor activities,

such as running and cycling. GPS is turned on for outdoor

activities. You can add new activities based on default activities,

such as walking or rowing. You can also add custom activities to

your device (Creating a Custom Activity, page 2).

Viewing Your Ski Runs

Your device records the details of each downhill skiing or

snowboarding run using the auto run feature. This feature is

turned on by default for downhill skiing and snowboarding. It

automatically records new ski runs based on your movement.

The timer pauses when you stop moving downhill and when you

are on a chairlift. The timer remains paused during the chairlift

ride. You can start moving downhill to restart the timer. You can

view run details from the paused screen or while the timer is

running.

Start a skiing or snowboarding activity.

Hold MENU.

Select View Runs.

Press UP and DOWN to view details of your last run, your

current run, and your total runs.

The run screens include time, distance traveled, maximum

speed, average speed, and total descent.

Using the Metronome

The metronome feature plays tones at a steady rhythm to help

you improve your performance by training at a faster, slower, or

more consistent cadence.

NOTE: This feature is not available for all activities.

From the watch face, press START.

Select an activity.

Hold MENU.

Select the activity settings.

Select Metronome > Status > On.

Select an option:

• Select Beats / Minute to enter a value based on the

cadence you want to maintain.

• Select Alert Frequency to customize the frequency of the

beats.

• Select Sounds to customize the metronome tone and

vibration.

If necessary, select Preview to listen to the metronome

feature before you run.

Go for a run (Starting an Activity, page 2).

The metronome starts automatically.

During your run, press UP or DOWN to view the metronome

screen.

If necessary, hold MENU to change the metronome settings.

Playing Audio Prompts During an Activity

You can enable your MARQ device to play motivational status

announcements during a run or other activity. Audio prompts

play on your connected headphones using Bluetooth

technology, if available. Otherwise, audio prompts play on your

smartphone paired through the Garmin Connect app. During an

audio prompt, the device or smartphone mutes the primary

audio to play the announcement.

NOTE: This feature is not available for all activities.

Hold MENU.

Select Audio Prompts.

Select an option:

• To hear a prompt for each lap, select Lap Alert.

NOTE: The Lap Alert audio prompt is enabled by default.
