3 Do not disconnect your device from the computer while the Garmin Express application downloads the software. TIP: If you are having trouble updating the software with the Garmin Express application, you may need to upload your activity history to the Garmin Connect application and delete your activity history from the device. This should provide sufficient memory space for the update. Maximizing Battery Life • Turn off smart notifications (Turning Off Notifications, page 5). • Turn off the Bluetooth wireless feature (Turning Off Bluetooth Technology, page 5). • Turn off activity tracking (Activity Tracking Settings, page 7). • Stop broadcasting heart rate data to paired Garmin devices (Broadcasting Heart Rate Data to Garmin® Devices, page 4). • Turn off wrist-based heart rate monitoring (Garmin Connect Settings, page 7). NOTE: Wrist-based heart rate monitoring is used to calculate vigorous intensity minutes and calories burned. Acquiring Satellite Signals The device may need a clear view of the sky to acquire satellite signals. The time and date are set automatically based on the GPS position. 1 Go outdoors to an open area. The front of the device should be oriented toward the sky. 2 Wait while the device locates satellites. It may take 30-60 seconds to locate satellite signals. Improving GPS Satellite Reception • Frequently sync the device to your Garmin Connect account: ◦ Connect your device to a computer using the USB cable and the Garmin Express application. ◦ Sync your device to the Garmin Connect Mobile app using your Bluetooth enabled smartphone. While connected to your Garmin Connect account, the device downloads several days of satellite data, allowing it to quickly locate satellite signals. • Take your device outside to an open area away from tall buildings and trees. • Remain stationary for a few minutes. When does my step count reset? The daily step count resets every night at midnight. My step count does not seem accurate If your step count does not seem accurate, you can try these tips. • Wear the device on your non-dominant wrist. • Carry the device in your pocket when actively using your hands or arms only. NOTE: The device may interpret some repetitive motions, such as clapping your hands or brushing your teeth, as steps. 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. 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. • Wait until the icon is solid before starting your activity. • 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. Can I use the cardio profile outdoors? You can turn on GPS and use the cardio profile for an outdoor activity. 1 Select > Cardio > Options > Use Outdoors. 2 Go outside, and wait while the device locates satellites. 3 Select to start the timer. GPS stays on for the selected activity profile until you turn it off. Appendix Data Fields Some data fields require ANT+ accessories to display data. Avg.
