IMPORTANT
SAFETY AND
PRODUCT
INFORMATION
WARNING
Failure to heed the following warnings could result in an
accident or medical event resulting in death or serious
injury.
Battery Warnings
If your device is rechargeable, it uses a lithium-ion battery.
If your device is not rechargeable, it uses a coin cell
battery. Coin cell batteries are used in the accessory.
If these guidelines are not followed, batteries may
experience a shortened life span or may present a risk of
damage to the device, fire, chemical burn, electrolyte leak,
and/or injury.
• Do not expose the device or batteries to fire, explosion,
or other hazard.
BATTERIES ARE HAZARDOUS AND MUST BE
KEPT AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
NEVER PUT NEW OR USED BATTERIES IN MOUTH
OR IN ANY PART OF THE BODY.
Severe or fatal injuries
can occur within 2 hours if swallowed or placed inside
the body. If this occurs or is suspected, seek medical
attention immediately.
• Do not disassemble, modify, remanufacture, puncture, or
damage the device or batteries.
• Do not remove or attempt to remove the non-user-
replaceable battery.
Device Warnings
• To avoid possible device damage, do not leave the
device exposed to a heat source or in a high-temperature
location, such as in the sun in an unattended vehicle.
• Do not operate or store the device for an extended time
period outside of the applicable temperature range listed
in the printed manual in the product packaging.
• Do not use a power cable, data cable, and/or power
adapter that is not supplied by Garmin
®
or is not properly
certified.
Health Warnings
• If you have a pacemaker or other internal electronic
device, consult your physician before using a heart rate
monitor.
• The optical wrist heart rate monitor and pulse oximeter
emit lights and flash occasionally. Consult your
physician if you have epilepsy or are sensitive to bright or
flashing lights.
• Always consult your physician before beginning or
modifying any exercise program.
• The device, accessories, heart rate monitor, pulse
oximeter, and related data are intended to be used only
for recreational purposes, not medical purposes, and are
not intended to diagnose, monitor, treat, cure, or prevent
any disease or condition.
• The heart rate and blood oxygen saturation readings are
for reference only, and no responsibility is accepted for
the consequences of any erroneous readings.
• While the optical wrist heart rate monitor and
pulse oximeter technologies typically provide accurate
estimates of a user's heart rate and blood oxygen
saturation respectively, there are inherent limitations
with the technologies that may cause some of the
readings to be inaccurate under certain circumstances,
including the user's physical characteristics, device fit
and position, and type and intensity of activity.
• Activity trackers rely on sensors that track your
movement and other metrics. The data provided by
these devices is intended to be a close estimation
of your activity and metrics tracked, but may not be
completely accurate.
Safety and Tracking Warning
The assistance feature allows you to send your location
to an emergency contact. This is a supplemental feature
and should not be relied upon as a primary method to
obtain emergency assistance. The Garmin Connect
app
does not contact emergency services on your behalf.
The incident detection feature is only available during
certain outdoor activities. For more information, see the
device owner's manual.
Navigation Warnings
If your Garmin device uses or accepts map data, follow
these guidelines to ensure safe navigating.
• Always carefully compare information displayed on the
device to all available navigation sources, including
weather conditions, maps, street/trail signs and
conditions, waterway restrictions, and other factors that
may affect safety. Always resolve any discrepancies
or questions before continuing navigation, and defer to
posted signs and conditions.
• Use this device only as a navigational aid. Do not
attempt to use the device for any purpose requiring
precise measurement of direction, distance, location, or
topography.
CAUTION
Failure to heed the following cautions could result in
minor or moderate injury, or property damage.
Skin Irritation
Some users may experience skin irritation after prolonged
use of the watch, especially if the user has sensitive skin
or allergies. If you notice any skin irritation, remove the
watch and give your skin time to heal. To help prevent skin
irritation, ensure the watch is clean and dry, and do not
overtighten the watch on your wrist. For more information,
