Requesting Assistance

NOTICE

Before you can request assistance, you must enable GPS on your Edge® device and set up emergency contact information in the Garmin Connect™ app. Your paired phone must be equipped with a data plan and be in an area of network coverage where data is available. Your emergency contacts must be able to receive emails or text messages (standard text messaging rates may apply).

  1. Hold Power button symbol for five seconds to activate the assistance feature.

    The device beeps and sends the message after the five-second countdown is complete.

    TIP: You can select Cancel Assistance symbol before the countdown is complete to cancel the message.
  2. If necessary, select Send to send the message immediately.
