Putting On the Heart Rate Monitor You should wear the heart rate monitor directly on your skin, just below your sternum. It should be snug enough to stay in place during your activity. 1 If necessary, attach the strap extender to the heart rate monitor. 2 Wet the electrodes on the back of the heart rate monitor to create a strong connection between your chest and the transmitter. 3 Wear the heart rate monitor with the Garmin logo facing right-side up. The loop and hook connection should be on your right side. 4 Wrap the heart rate monitor around your chest, and connect the strap hook to the loop. NOTE: Make sure the care tag does not fold over. After you put on the heart rate monitor, it is active and sending data. Heart Rate Storage for Timed Activities You can start a timed activity on your paired Forerunner device, and the heart rate monitor records your heart rate data even if you move away from your device. For example, you can record heart rate data during fitness activities or team sports where watches cannot be worn. Your heart rate monitor automatically sends your stored heart rate data to your Forerunner device when you save your activity. Your heart rate monitor must be active and within range (3 m) of the device while data is uploaded. Accessing Stored Heart Rate Data If you save a timed activity before you upload the stored heart rate data, you can download the data from the HRM-Pro accessory.

When the heart rate monitor memory is full, your oldest data is overwritten. 1 Put on the heart rate monitor. 2 From your Garmin device, select the History menu. 3 Select the timed activity you saved while you were wearing the heart rate monitor 4 Select Download HR.
