For information about compatibility and purchasing additional
sensors, go to http://buy.garmin.com.
Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor
You should wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin, just
below your sternum. It should be snug enough to stay in place
during your activity.
1
If necessary, attach the strap extender to the heart rate
monitor.
2
Wet the electrodes
À
on the back of the heart rate monitor to
create a strong connection between your chest and the
transmitter.
3
Wear the heart rate monitor with the Garmin logo facing right-
side up.
The loop
Á
and hook
Â
connection should be on your right
side.
4
Wrap the heart rate monitor around your chest, and connect
the strap hook to the loop.
NOTE: Make sure the care tag does not fold over.
After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active and sending
data.
Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data
If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try
these tips.
Reapply water to the electrodes and contact patches (if
applicable).
Tighten the strap on your chest.
Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes.
Follow the care instructions (Caring for the Heart Rate
Monitor, page 23).
Wear a cotton shirt or thoroughly wet both sides of the strap.
Synthetic fabrics that rub or flap against the heart rate
monitor can create static electricity that interferes with heart
rate signals.
Move away from sources that can interfere with your heart
rate monitor.
Sources of interference may include strong electromagnetic
fields, some 2.4 GHz wireless sensors, high-voltage power
lines, electric motors, ovens, microwave ovens, 2.4 GHz
cordless phones, and wireless LAN access points.
Pairing 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.
NOTE: If a heart rate monitor was bundled with your device, the
included heart rate monitor is already paired with your device.
1
If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the heart rate
monitor (Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor, page 18).
The heart rate monitor does not send or receive data until
you put it on.
2
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other ANT+ sensors
while pairing.
3
Hold UP.
4
Select Settings > Sensors > Add New.
5
Select an option:
Select Search All.
Select your sensor type.
After the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status
changes from Searching to Connected. Sensor data appears
in the data page loop or a custom data field.
Using an Optional Bike Speed or Cadence
Sensor
You can use a compatible bike speed or cadence sensor to
send data to your device.
Pair the sensor with your device (Pairing ANT+ Sensors,
page 18).
Update your fitness user profile information (Setting Up Your
User Profile, page 6).
Set your wheel size (Wheel Size and Circumference,
page 26).
Go for a ride (Going for a Ride, page 4).
Foot Pod
Your device is compatible with the foot pod. You can use the
foot pod to record pace and distance instead of using GPS when
you are training indoors or when your GPS signal is weak. The
foot pod is on standby and ready to send data (like the heart
rate monitor).
After 30 minutes of inactivity, the foot pod powers off to
conserve the battery. When the battery is low, a message
appears on your device. Approximately five hours of battery life
remain.
Improving Foot Pod Calibration
Before you can calibrate your device, you must acquire GPS
signals and pair your device with the foot pod (Pairing ANT+
Sensors, page 18).
