Changing the GPS Setting

By default, the device uses GPS to locate satellites. For more information about GPS, go to Garmin.com.sg/about-gps.

  1. From the watch face, select START.
  2. Select an activity.
  3. Select Options > GPS.
  4. Select an option:
    • Select GPS Only to enable the GPS satellite system.
    • Select GPS + GLONASS (Russian satellite system) for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility.
    • Select GPS + GALILEO (European Union satellite system) for more accurate position information in situations with poor sky visibility.

    NOTE: Using GPS and another satellite together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only (GPS and Other Satellite Systems).

GPS and Other Satellite Systems

The GPS + GLONASS or GPS + GALILEO options offer increased performance in challenging environments and faster position acquisition than using GPS only. However, using GPS and another satellite system together can reduce battery life more quickly than using GPS only.
