Pairing Your Wireless Sensors

Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or install the sensor.

The first time you connect a wireless sensor using ANT+ or Bluetooth technology, you must pair the watch and sensor. If the sensor has both ANT+ and Bluetooth technology, Garmin recommends that you pair using ANT+ technology. After they are paired, the watch 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 watch automatically when you start an activity with the sensor turned on and near the watch.

  1. Bring the watch within 3 m(10 ft.) of the sensor.

NOTE: Stay 10 m(33 ft.) away from other wireless sensors while pairing.
