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.
Marine Warnings
If your device provides tide information, this feature is for
informational purposes only. It is the user's responsibility
to heed all posted tide or water related guidance, to
remain aware of your surroundings, and to use safe
judgment around the water at all times. Failure to heed
this warning could result in property damage, serious
personal injury, or death.
If your device includes the anchor feature, you should use
it as a tool for situational awareness only, as it may not
prevent groundings or collisions in all circumstances. You
are responsible for safe and prudent operation of your
vessel, for remaining aware of your surroundings, and for
using safe judgment on the water at all times. Failure to
heed this warning could result in property damage, serious
personal injury, or death.
Battery Warnings
A lithium-ion battery is used in this device.
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.
• 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.
Bicycle Warnings
• Always use your best judgement, and operate the bicycle
in a safe manner.
• Make sure your bicycle and hardware are properly
maintained and that all parts are correctly installed.
