Pairing Your Phone

To use the connected features of the Edge^® device, it must be paired directly through the Garmin Connect™ app, instead of from the Bluetooth^® settings on your phone.

Hold to turn on the device.

The first time you turn on the device, you will select the device language. The next screen prompts you to pair with your phone.

TIP: You can swipe down on the home screen to view the settings widget, and select Phone > Pair Smartphone to manually enter pairing mode.
Scan the QR code with your phone, and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the pairing and setup process.

NOTE: Based on your Garmin Connect account and accessories, your device suggests activity profiles and data fields during setup. If you have sensors paired with your previous device, you can transfer them during setup.

NOTE: Setting up Wi‑Fi^® and sleep mode usage on your device enables the device to sync with all your data such as training stats, course downloads, and software updates.

After you pair successfully, a message appears, and your device syncs automatically with your phone.
