If dashes appear instead of your stress level, be still, and wait
while the device measures your heart rate variability.
My intensity minutes are flashing
When you exercise at an intensity level that qualifies toward
your intensity minutes goal, the intensity minutes flash.
Exercise for at least 10 consecutive minutes at a moderate or
vigorous intensity level.
The floors climbed amount does not seem accurate
Your device uses an internal barometer to measure elevation
changes as you climb floors. A floor climbed is equal to 3 m
(10 ft.).
• Avoid holding handrails or skipping steps while climbing
stairs.
• In windy environments, cover the device with your sleeve or
jacket as strong gusts can cause erratic readings.
Tips for Erratic Heart Rate Data
If the heart rate data is erratic or does not appear, you can try
these tips.
• Clean and dry your arm before putting on the device.
• Avoid wearing sunscreen, lotion, and insect repellent under
the device.
• Avoid scratching the heart rate sensor on the back of the
device.
• Wear the device above your wrist bone. The device should
be snug but comfortable.
• Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes and get a heart rate reading
before starting your activity.
NOTE: In cold environments, warm up indoors.
• Rinse the device with fresh water after each workout.
• While exercising, use a silicone band.
My device does not display the correct time
The device updates the time and date when you sync your
device to a computer or mobile device. You should sync your
device to receive the correct time when you change time zones,
and to update for daylight saving time.
If the watch hands do not match the digital time, you should
align them manually (Aligning the Watch Hands, page 9).

Aligning the Watch Hands

watch hands do not match the digital time, you should align
them manually.

few months of normal use.

My device display is difficult to see outside
The device detects ambient light and automatically adjusts the
backlight brightness to maximize battery life. In direct sunlight,
the screen gets brighter, but it may still be difficult to read. The
automatic activity detection feature can be helpful when starting
outdoor activities (Device Settings on Your Garmin Connect
Account, page 7).
