Setting an Abnormal Heart Rate Alert

This feature only alerts you when your heart rate exceeds or drops below a certain number of beats per minute,
as selected by the user, after a period of inactivity. This feature does not notify you of any potential heart
condition and is not intended to treat or diagnose any medical condition or disease. Always defer to your health
care provider for any heart-related issues.
You can set the heart rate threshold value.
1 From the heart rate widget, hold
2 Select Options > Abnormal Heart Rate Alerts.
3 Select High Alert or Low Alert.
4 Set the heart rate threshold value.
Each time your heart rate exceeds or drops below the threshold value, a message appears and the device
vibrates.

Turning Off the Wrist-based Heart Rate Monitor

The default value for the Wrist Heart Rate setting is Auto. The device automatically uses the wrist-based heart
rate monitor unless you pair an ANT+ heart rate monitor to the device.
NOTE: Disabling the wrist-based heart rate monitor also disables the wrist-based pulse oximeter sensor. You
can perform a manual reading from the pulse oximeter widget.
1 From the heart rate widget, hold
2 Select Options > Status > Off.

Chest Heart Rate While Swimming

The HRM-Pro, HRM-Swim, and HRM-Tri heart rate accessories record and store your heart rate data while you
are swimming. To view your heart rate data, you can add heart rate data fields
page 74).
NOTE: Chest heart rate data is not visible on compatible Forerunner devices while the heart rate monitor is
underwater.
You must start a timed activity on your paired Forerunner device to view stored heart rate data later. During rest
intervals when out of the water, the heart rate accessory sends your heart rate data to your Forerunner device.
Your Forerunner device automatically downloads stored heart rate data when you save your timed swim
activity. Your heart rate accessory must be out of the water, active, and within range of the device (3 m) while
data downloads. Your heart rate data can be reviewed in the device history and on your Garmin Connect
account.
If both wrist-based heart rate and chest heart rate data are available, your device uses the chest heart rate data.
