Pairing Your Phone

To use the connected features of the Edge^® bike computer, 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.
If this is the first time you have turned on the device, select a device language.

The next screen prompts you to pair with your phone.
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 may suggest 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.
If necessary, to manually enter pairing mode, swipe down from the home screen to view the status widget, and select Phone > Pair Smartphone (Viewing Widgets).

NOTE: If you are pairing a new phone, select the name of the previously paired phone, and select to forget the phone. Pair Smartphone appears after you forget the previously paired phone.

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