Wireless Sensors
Your device can be used with wireless ANT+ or
Bluetooth sensors. For more information about
compatibility and purchasing optional sensors, go to
http://buy.garmin.com.
Pairing Your Wireless Sensors
The first time you connect a wireless ANT+ or Bluetooth
sensor to your Garmin device, you must pair the device
and sensor.
After they are paired, the device connects to the sensor
automatically when you start an activity and the sensor
is active and within range.
TIP: Some ANT+ sensors pair with your device
automatically when you start an activity with the
sensor turned on and near the device.
1 Move at least 10 m (33 ft.) away from other wireless
sensors.
2 If you are pairing a heart rate monitor, put on the
heart rate monitor.
The heart rate monitor does not send or receive data
until you put it on.
3 Hold the touchscreen.
4 Select Settings > Sensors & Accessories > Add New.
5 Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor, and
wait while the device pairs with the sensor.
After the device connects to the sensor, an icon
appears at the top of the screen.
Foot Pod
Your device is compatible with the foot pod. You can
use the foot pod to record pace and distance instead
of using GPS when you are training indoors or when
your GPS signal is weak. The foot pod is on standby and
ready to send data (like the heart rate monitor).
After 30 minutes of inactivity, the foot pod powers
off to conserve the battery. When the battery is low, a
message appears on your device. Approximately five
hours of battery life remain.
