Tips for Pairing ANT+ Accessories with Your Garmin

Device

•

Verify that the ANT+ accessory is compatible with your

Garmin device.

•

Before you pair the ANT+ accessory with your Garmin

device, move 10 m (32.9 ft.) away from other ANT+

accessories.

•

Bring the Garmin device within range 3 m (10 ft.) of the ANT

+ accessory.

•

After you pair the first time, your Garmin device automatically

recognizes the ANT+ accessory each time it is activated.

This process occurs automatically when you turn on the

Garmin device and only takes a few seconds when the

accessories are activated and functioning correctly.

•

When paired, your Garmin device receives data from only

your accessory, and you can go near other accessories.
